Guy i went into jaycar and brought a $15 cassette tape that plugs into the tape deck and the other end into my iphone the guys says the music i have stored on my iphone will play thru the car speakers.

So i plug it in and press the tape into the deck and full volume sound very very fussy and faint music.

Any ideas ?

Almost.

Consider this your first and final warning.

There is absolutely no reason why you need to start 3 topics with exactly the same thing.

On top that there are countless audio threads already.

If you feel there's a valid reason why you did need to start 3 topics, please PM me and let me know.

yep spend more money and do it properly.

I dont want to spend 100's of dollars just to play music in the car when the tape should do the same thing for $15 . I would prefer burning the music onto cd and putting them into the car , i thought this option for $15 yeah il give it a try.

So nobody knows why the music isnt loud ? Could there be a problem with the tape deck i dont have any tapes to test it

Check you have the headphone jack plugged in properly.

If the head deck has an option for playing the other side of the tape, try that. Or flip the cassette over and put it back in.

Hi and thank you for your help. It does have an option fof playing side a and side b which i tried. I also made sure the aux end is all the way into the iphone and it is, i have no idea whats wrong im going back to the store tomorrow for some advice.

I would like to know how to check to see if the problem isnt my tape deck.

By full volume do you mean the volume on the deck? Have you tried turning the volume up to full on your iphone first?

But yeah, quality will always suck using this technology.

I had one of these tape adaptors back in the day for my first car (used my portable CD player) and the cassette part was designed so that you could run the cable out either end, which enabled you to flip the tape over. If you had the tape in the wrong way the heads wouldn't line up properly and you'd get the problem with the volume being too quite.

But I also remember having to take them back and trying a couple different brands before I found one that worked with my head deck.

In this case though, the V35 has a factory aux in, just need to get a bit of cable with a headphone jack on one end and wire the other end into the TV tuner in the boot.

Yes full volume on deck and full volume on iphone. I found out the problem is with my phone as i tried with another iphone and it works perfectly. I recommend this option for anyone who wants to spend $10-$15 to play music from your iphone / ipod to your car.

Yeah this one doesnt allow me to flip the tape . But for some reason My iphone wont work properly where everyone else does. So the problem is my iphone not the tape.

Thanks for all your advice.'

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
