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.

    • 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?
