Hi there, I am wanting to use this setup slightly differently. I want to display video on screen while leaving the audio to playing CDs (am using a grom unit for audio which retains OEM steering controls)

My question is. When grounding cont1 which forces the nav screen to display the aux video signal, does it also switch the OEM head unit to aux or leave it alone?

If it does not does anyone know of a more permanent trick to disabling the auto aux audio feature? (I did see a post about leaving cont1 grounded before startup which left the sound alone but this would force me to keep cont1 grounded which I would rather have switchable)

Hope all of the above makes sense :)

In my Bose equipped coupe, when I ground cont1 to display the reverse camera on the nav screen, the audio isn't affected - ie the radio (or whatever is runnimg at the time) stays on.

Excellent! That's exactly what I was hoping would happen. That plan is to use my cell phone via Bluetooth as the audio source. But when i want navigation I plan to connect it via a micro USB to HDMI adapter, then convert that signal to rgb NTSC format and pass it through the aux port by using the cont1 grounding trick. In theory this should never effect the audio stream and allow me to retain the OEM steering controls.

Will post an update with pics if everything goes as planned.

Cheers

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
