3 years ago I got the following from garys (care of Rod)

1 x Pioneer VNET 450 AMP

1 x Pioneer VNET 2100 AMP

2 x Clarion 10" Freeairs (boot)

2 x Pioneer 6" Door Splits (Front)

1 x Custom Sub box with 2 x Port Holes (HUGE) going to the parcel shelf.

All installed and nicely configured (I had my own head unit)

$1100

Nice deal

i know gray personaly and he is not that cheap on setroes, but he only sell's top quilty products unlike your Strathfield and jb hifi stores. if you are able to spend a little extra then go garys car audio for top quilty products that will sound good.

paulr33 u got a great deal for 3 years ago.

to save yourself more money do the installation your self i saved $2000 on installation on my car buy doing it my self.

And plz ppl dont buy sony, sony is only good for wogs and asians who think they know what they are talking about in car audio. and for wankers that are all looks.

the best advice i can give is research and dont buy anything on impulse, stay clear ok 6X9 if you are putting subs in, and splits will always give you clear music over any 2way 3 way speaker..

but thats my 2 dollars worth of info.

Yeah I already got planned what i want, (in the first post of the thread) now im just looking for the best place to buy it... Any ideas SXY R33?? I looked up Garys car radio in the Melways and its far away, will probably call for a quote to avoid disappointment if i drive all that way.

Has any one dealth with central car radio on nepean highway, there the only other place i know of that stocks boston acoustics..

ok i got my whole system through jb hifi i knew what i wannted so i took no shit from the sales person "Who have no idea about electronics". plus my mate at that time worked at nudwading jb hifi i got it for $1300 worth about 3g.

just go out and get heaps of quotes from the car audio stuff you want (dont change what u are getting from store to store) stick with the products you are after and you will save 100s of dollars.

ring starathfield, jb hifi, grays, patterson sound, eg. once you have found the lowest phone quote, go into the store and talk them down even more.

Hint: go in on a weekend of late friday night "thats when the causals are working" they are easy to talk down. "+spin some techniqual shit to them they shit themsellves"

Aslo with boston acoustics stuff go to http://www.caraudioaustralia.com/ they should be able to tell where they are stocked!

good luck with the buy

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
