Some genius broke into my precious VL commodore last night and stole my super expensive and high quality Sony Xplod head unit. It's awesomeness predates removable faceplates and high powered outputs (it was only 4 x 45W).

I fully expect the genius who stole it to get about $20 for it on the street so he can continue his ice habbit, however I now have a hole in my high-powered, high security vehicle. Does anyone have a shitter old head unit they don't want anymore (or would sell for <$30) just so I can listen to the radio. This car was only temporary while I do some work on mine (which is almost finished, hoorah!) and I only used the CD player for the radio because I don't think the CD player actually worked.

Anywho, If you see some dodgy bastard trying to sell a very old and used sony xplod head unit around Melba, punch him in the kidney for me.

Hey Leshy,

I have an oldish JVC that you can have for $20, I think Ive still got the wiring and plug for the back of it too.

I think it still plays CD's (not very well though).

Its yours if you want it. :blush:

Awesome, as long as it plays FM radio I'm happy. What are your movements for the next few days?

I just checked the car over. They stole the interior light bulb, busted the drivers side lock, yet they forgot to take the plug for all the stereo wires, so not only did they steal a crappy head unit, but it won't work without that plug. they must have been the SMRT ones

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
