for those of us who have had previous head units from japan they don't work naturally with australian radio. They usually need a chip or something put in them. Don't put peoples comments down if you don't know what your on about. I was genuinely asking a question as the colour matches the outside of my car and would be nice to have inside my car as it looks like a decent unit. Therefore i was genuinely interested in buying. I think i'll pass now however.

$600 :devil: whoa! Now tats ambitious! ERhm well if u wanna drop the price of watever the price gets up to on ebay. IF ITS NOT $600 I'll be keen to buy it. AND IF MASE U HAVE A OLD JAP HEADUNIT I'M keen. Or anyone out there. ANything that place cd's and looks nice. I dont need the radio! I LOVE MY MP3's ;) thanks

As an importer of vehicles for 5years im quite sure i know what im atlking about. Bryan if you like make me an offer but you can go and ask strathfield car radios for a quote on such a unit and they will tell you what they are worth and then you will be shocked. I also have a double din which isn't working but i have been quoted $170 to fix. If you like you can have it for $50 and fix it up in melbourne or i can get it fixed and you give me $250 for it.

Its a jvc cd and tape/tuner it works with a battery charger in the house but won't play in the car. Weird. Let me know if your interested.

oh tru tru. narh too much trouble, thanks anywayz mrtwinturbo. But I'll see wat u fetch on ebay then I'll give u an offer above watever highest bid u get (if its still in my price range).

ED - r u selling ur headunit or just swapping?

So does this mean this is a trader advertisement from your import company?? No offense mate but you may of never received any cars with headunits that only go up to 88 fm but i have had two.

Thanks anyway and goodluck with the sale.

All car's which arive from japan only go up to roughly 89. Even on all standard japanese low volume or personal import cars.

Also its not a trader ad as i do this on the side. Like many others who import vehicles sure beats the hell out of paying dealer prices.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
