Hahaha @ unit ....

I also find the quality isn't as good with a "plug in" product lol!

I want one with a USB slot, I wonder if the quality would be the same =\

I think its all to do with the quality of cable you use .?.?.?

That could be it lol ... The iPhone doesn't sound as good as when I have a CD in, dammit! Might try a different cable!

Yeah my mate whos into all that shiz says you need audio specific cables to get the quality :(

USB and SD are fine. As long as you encode your MP3s correctly in the first place. If you have crap quality MP3s they'll sound shit no matter what you do.

Mine goes in through a usb cable and the mp3's are fine so it must be the cable ?

It's looking good Dave.

It's almost a roller!!!!!

I have 2 weeks off soon, when does your work hoils start?

not till the 23rd i believe maybe a bit before hand, but crazy busy atm 4 renos and a brand spanker to finish before Christmas

as for headunits get something that rocks USB and buy yourself a small portable HDD and format fat32 and you have like 80gb of music in your car :(

sweet ass notice f**ker :D

Dude I told you WEEKS ago. Don't make me go and find the post

I'm thinking I might go head unit/amp shopping today. Where's a good Northside store dedicated to car equipment?

Dude unless you want to spend epic cash, just go to JB or WOW or something. They all sell the same gear

Yeah, they're all iPod/iPhone crap at the moment :(

I don't own any apple products

Thinking it might wind up being eBay spec, because the big hitters at the moment don't seem to be making very good touch screen head units. Although, JVC have one that would be awesome if it had SD (fail on their part). And Pioneer seem to have lost the plot and started putting smaller screens on their units :)

*sigh*

Pioneer are shit these days don't touch them.

that's the root of your problem right there

As long the head unit reads a drive that big you're fine. You also have to make sure it can read huge file names and it's not going to throw tildes everywhere and make it a c*ntdog to navigate through it.

I wanted to use the car sound place as a living catalogue

Thanks for the heads up! They look like they're going Xplod style :(

Mangs..

I got a Pioneer AVIC-F310BT and it's awesome. So there :)

I've seen your unit. Needs more big.

Interpret that how you will :D

I have a Pioneer and it is shit :( LOL but it's like 1000 years old :) I've got like a mix & match stereo, hehe as I have a Alpine Type R Sub & 2 spider amps! Hahaha! I really need a new head unit =\

IF for some reason you feel you really HAVE to run a sub then - Boston G5 subs FTW

Real music doesn't need subs though :D

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
