the aerial is working fine, goes up and down when switched on and off.

The adaptor I got was a straight plug in from the jap 2 pronged wire to a single prong wire. It was actually listed for nissan's. I will look up the product when I get home tonighy

IN european car the rear dimsiter is the aerial, as i dont have a skyline atm i not sure if this theroy applies.

could be that when the dimsiter is on it casues some sort of electrmantic filed of heat. Witch then casue the frequency of the radio station to become distored and weak becasuse their is a field it needs to get through. Try buying a amplifer the the antenta. will boost up volume and respection.

cheers

Mayb ther'e is noise super imposed on the demister voltage. Maybe put a 0.1 Uf cap on there to chasis ground. This will make it look like a short to any aleranting current or noise on the demister. DC wont go through the cap, cus it's like a hi-pass filter.

Just a thought . Never Had the problem. My arial is in front windscreen.

Madtrang,

Where did you get the window aerial from? i got one from stathfield radios and was wondering how good they actually work! removing the stock arial from my R33 so wondering how good radio quality is from these window arials!!

this is mainly because they say to hook up to the demisters if signal is low!!! perhaps this issue will affect me too afters this install!!!

any info would be good!

Cheers

The r32 gtst of mine atcualy has the areial in side the front window. Stock. I think it also could be tuned for picking up frequnecy in the 70 - 90 mhz Band. Not 2 sure, but I think all hte higher stations dont receive as goood as the lower ones.

I rekon u be better sticking to the normal arieal, rather than a window one,

I'd like to know how a normal window one is attached. I think mine is actually inside the glass. Going 2 b bad if i ever get my front window smashed. But I never listen 2 radio anyway.

well the one i got has an arial unit that sits under the parcel tray, but can be attached to the positive wire of rear demister for better reception!!!

main reason im getting rid of the arial is because it's always up even when only lstening to CD's and looks crap! also with the GT wing can open the boot when the radio is on --- which is always !

see how it goes anyway, thanks for the info!

Hmm, mayb u should try hooking up a switch for areal up and down. Or a witch brings areal down on boot pop. Would not b 2 hard. But the looking crap part can't help u there. Could b worse could have a coat hangar instead. :-)

Yeah finished watching third stage movie. Just other night. Downloaded the hole lot of the net. About six Gb worth. Cant wait till they make another stage. Whatched every stage now. So addictive.

Been wanting to buy the whole set, but dont realy want to put on a credit card and get it from over seas.. yet..

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
