R33 Import Audio Questions

Hey there people!

Been lurking for a while now. I've recently purchased a Black R33 from Autoworx in Perth (who were great btw) and have a few questions related to the audio system in the car. Things to keep in mind are that this is my first skyline, I'm no rev-head (I just love the lines of the R33 & wanted to have a car with more than 80kW ONCE in my life :() and have no experience tinkering with car-electrics besides changing out the tail-lights in my old car for newer ones.

It came with a E3302 CMT head unit which is 2-Din or something from Japan (Eclipse). After literally spending two hours tonight clicking around a japanese-only site looking at the link names, I've figured out that I'm not crazy, and that the unit literally will only tune in the range of 76-90mhz FM, which obviously is a far cry short of my 92.9 & 93.7 easy listening stations. What I've ascertained is that I need some sort of FM band expander/tweaker but am unsure about who to get in contact with in WA to purchase & have it installed... It apparently goes on the antenna and that's not something I wish to be messing around with.

Secondly it came with some big Kenwood speakers attached in the back, which were removed for compliance for child restraints, but from what I can tell it already has a stock child restraint and it was just the government being anal, since my street-legal Lancer CE has the exact same child restraint mechanism, and was purchased from Mitsubishi Australia! I've removed the extra restraints but I have no idea how to attach the speakers back up... there doesn't appear to be enough wires to get power to both of the speakers. Anyway, so after about an hour of fiddling I decided to wait till after uni exams and take it to a professional... The question is... What professional? Any recommendations in Perth???

I think that's about it for now... with those two questions answered I'll basically have a fully functioning audio system rather than just the current... front-speaker only with CDs :banana:

Any and all help is appreciated!

Well thank you very much Chris! Once exams are over I'll give him a call. It's amazing what people can do to their cars, I spent hours last night just trawling the forums looking at the pictures, projects, DIY guides... It's going to be fun :whistling:

Thanks again!

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
