OK, my car is an R34 GT and the centre console arragement is completely different to what I want it to be - check the pic below.

Where the CD player is, some people have the A/C controls in their R34, in that place instead. I want to see if anyone knows where I could get that version of the controls from for a good price, because I want to get a Double-Din Headunit for my car because the stock CD player has stopped working again and I am over it!

lve got the same pop up screen in my car and am currently changing it all over to the normal a/c controls and triple gauge.

they dont just swap over as they are different widths.I ordered a new climate control trim cover for the normal type as it appears to use the same module behind from the nissan dealer l work at. lm going to test it tomorrow and l will let you know as it only cost $60 so it looks like a cheaper option.

I will let you know and if it fits l will tel you the part number.

the ac module should be the same ..but the AC fascia is definately different. However the factory radio fascia has a weird angle so you cant just take it out and pop in a 2din stereo. You need to get the double din fascia as well AND also the 2 brackets that hold the entire centre console in there ... I've just been through this conversion, trust me you will need 1) AC fascia, 2) double din stereo fascia 3) the 2 brackets that hold the ac and stereo and the fascias in the centre...

+1 on what on ducki said, and thanks for the heads up in what involved. I really want a better stereo system in my car, and if that means pissing off the screen on the dash and maybe even investing in the triple gauge cluster - for a possible turbo conversion later down the track - then I would like to know the info on what it costs and what I need to get as much as I can.

yeah sure thing, lm doing the same conversion. l will post part numbers and prices on mon night.

I have the a/c fascia part number 25570-AA002 (series 2 trim) cost appox $60-$70

the brackets l wouldnt recommend getting from nissan as they are over $100 each, lm currently trying to get them elsewhere.(but l will get exact price)

l will get the part numbers and prices for the double din trim in both series 1(black) and 2(silver) and gearshift surround if you wanna update to series 2(silver trims).

also the triple guage trim if you want to get rid of screen.

if there is anything else let me know.

I've already ripped out my LCD and replaced it with triple gauges.. Now just need the console section to make it look right since I got the sat nav panel still sitting there doing nothing. Can't remove it cause it'll leave a gap.

i recently did this conversion myself and to do it properly you will need the followng

a/c unit

surround for headunit/din pocket

you will need to replace the metal brackets that go behind

i got the above items out of a r34 gtr, same as gtt. cost me $150 from a wrecker

Good ol' trade job... lol >_<

I've seen a couple of shots of the triple gauges in the thread where poeple have repainted the centre console plastics, and I am definitly wanting the gauges in mine! Even if mine isn't turbo (yet), I still want to see what my engine's doing. When I get them I am painting my console and window controls in silver, as I've seen someone do theirs in silver and it looks awesome...Silver accents the shapes and lines so well and you could get away with murder on it.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
