Alpine CDA-7998R

Introduced in 2002, Alpine CDA7998R was rated as top of the range HU, just a wee bit below CDA7990 aka #F1 status (which retailed for $3999au from memory). Personally, I think its one of the best HU come out from Alpine. One if the very few built on copper plated chassis.

For those whore into cosmetics, youd love the XL sized FantomFace interface and unique motorized mechanism automatically put the face plate behind an inconspicuous face plate the moment you leave your vice versa.

For entry and mid level ICE, you cant go wrong with this one. Built in with 3-way digital crossover, 6-channel digital time correction, optical digital output, base engine pro etc. give you plenty of tuning point to optimise your setup.

Even now, this 7998R can still do wonders and giving the new age HU a run for their money. And because it has aged, its has become one of the best bargain if you can sourced good used unit. Just be wary of the motorised faceplate.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
