Hi guys, I'm only new to this site. I recently purchased an r33 series 2 with the standard double din head unit. I decided to upgrade to a tv/dvd unit. I bought a wiring harness so that I didn't have to chop any wires but after installing I found that the speakers aren't working. The unit itself is coming on and everything is working but no sound. I have checked all fuses and they seem to be fine. My concern is do these speakers have an internal amplifier?

could be unplugged at the speaker, , broken in the door jamb, hacked in somewhere, the external amp not setup to turn on with the radio, no speakers in the holes,

dodgy radio, dodgy plug, dodgy plug install, wrong wires.

did you pop test the speakers during installation ? 1.5 volt battery ??? could be a bad xover .

this is why you pay someone to do it. so you don't encounter a GOTCHA !!!!!.lol my 2c

Sorry. Forgot to mention they work fine with the standard head unit just not with the new one. I am pretty sure it's the wiring from the car to the wiring harness. The standard unit also has a 10 cd stacker in the boot and a separate cable from the stacker to the unit which isn't being used on the new unit. I have looked at the diagram on this site and the 6 pin plug in my car is missing 2 wires and both of them are amp wires. Is this because my speakers aren't amplified or would the wires be in with the stacker wires?

I would suss that problem, don't assume wiring diagrams are right, most are from the USA where skylines were never sold until R35 and the wires still don't match up

most likely a mis wired interface plug. for the wrong car. model. year .

photos would help

do you know if you have aftermarket speakers, like splits ?

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
