Good evening all, will introduce myself properly shortly, wanted to ask your advice on something first.

Recently bought an r34 25gt fresh import. Its officially rego'd and on the road as of a few weeks ago and I couldn't be happier with the car itself, but the half working, japanese reading heat unit is starting to get to me.

I'm a) lazy and b) not great with electronics so was thinking a cheapish solution would be a combination of the following (head unit used as example):

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NISSAN-CAR-STEREO-ISO-WIRING-HARNESS-PLUG-CONNECTOR-2-/250750991968?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a61ec7e60

http://www.ministryofbass.com.au/moshop/index.php/radio-harness/harnesses/aerpro-app8ke1-kenwood-to-iso-wiring-harness.html

http://www.soundmaster.com.au/Kenwood-DPX-U6120-CD-MP3-USB-ipod-Control-Double-Din-Player/DPXU6120.asp

Basically a head unit with features that I want that is not too expensive & a Nissan 1995+ -> ISO harness & ISO -> Kenwood harness. All up including shipping it will be $329

Is there anything that I'm missing?

Will it simply be follow the guide on here to remove all the interior and fascia, unbolt and clip old head unit, clip on harness #1, clip on harness #2, plug in new head unit, replace interior and drive away? Seems too easy...

Cheers.

Used one of those harnesses on a VS Commodore wagon yesterday, it was perfect. Can't comment on the Skyline as I've never done one, but provided those are the correct plugs and you aren't getting a massively complex head unit, yeah it is that simple.

Hi

Pretty sure that the R34 uses the later harness

Nissan Harness

Its been a while but I am sure that you are going to need the diversity antenaa adaptor as well.

Nissan Antenna

And the kenwood harness

Kenwood

You should be good with those three parts

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
