RushOfWind Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Hi all, just wanna make a quick question about the factoy bose unit on the 2003 V35, is it common for the 6 discs cd stacker to break or jam?? and is it a easy fix?? I have done abit of research and found some horrible stories, that a faulty cd stacker could lead to A/C malfunctions and battery drains and other disastrous scenarios...I would like to know if these are just some extreme cases or a common issue which most owners experience, only reason asking is bcuz I have looked into buying a 03 model v35 skyline and the cd stacker happened to be apparently "jammed" with error code F0 or soemthing...dont really mind if its an easy fix but if it is a quite seriouse issue then i might have to reconsider... owners comments and experiences would be greatly appreciated thanks all Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/376211-cd-stacker-issue-v35/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Rogers Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 VERY common. I get a call a week asking for a way to fix them. parts are not available for them due to age and the best solution is to rip the lot and sart fresh. happy to elaborate on it if you wish.

Nightcrawler Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 The BOSE system is a bit of a pos anyway - just buy a dual din kit and put a decent touch screen DVD player/stereo in and Bob's your uncle.

RushOfWind Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 thanks for sharing guys, so i guess double din unit and the facia kit is the way to go, just wondering does the factory pop up screen still work after the conversion? or does it become completely useless?

Nightcrawler Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 And if you get the correct cable from Chris ^^^, you can plug whatever device you like into the factory tv Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/376211-cd-stacker-issue-v35/#findComment-6000097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
vee35 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 so i guess double din unit and the facia kit is the way to go, just wondering does the factory pop up screen still work after the conversion? or does it become completely useless? I went with a CarPC, and left the dead CD staker where it was. I can also switch over to the inbuilt nissan computer for fuel economy and service intervals etc And if you get the correct cable from Chris ^^^, you can plug whatever device you like into the factory tv I have my CarPC plugged into this screen using a cable from Chris, and also a reverse camera which switches over automatically when you put it in reverse. So the factory screen is very useful. My center console looks completely stock, and it all tucks away as original.

Chris Rogers Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 BFH! (Big Fkn Hammer.) seriously it is full strip down of the thing and at the end of it the unit is a throw away. this depends WHERE the transport has locked up. some are easy to strip others you will destroy pulling them apart.

o2bfit Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 There is a how to on the removal of the CD's on youtube Chris - With the cartridge removed as in the video, will the radio, tape, AC etc still function or is there a self check it does that will make it spit the dummy? I'm going to have to decide whether to add Ipod interface or do the financially painful change to a double din setup. Not looking forward to it.

Chris Rogers Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 it will run without it BUT the ipod lead that I sell will not work as it disables the port that it plugs into if you remove it. there is a trick to it but it is at board level and I do not wish to disclose that for the express reason people will start harassing me when they destroy a board whilst trying to mod it.

Looks good. Is that a Metra Kit or Original? How well does the colour matching with the G35 kits go with the V35 interiors especially on a 2001 300GT?

Nightcrawler Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 That is a 2nd hand original kit. DON'T EVER CONSIDER USING THE METRA. It is a pos. You can spot the Metra rubber buttons a mile off - they are crap and apparently the climate units are know for failing. Colour match is perfect on mine.

o2bfit Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Question regarding the interior colour. The interior of the my 2001 300GT console is a dull khaki dark greyish colour which I assume is Willow (its certainly no silver or black). There appears to be differences in the jdm colour advertised on ebay, some mention it is a silver/willow, some willow has dark grey on the vents. This is the closest I've found to my interior but the seller won't ship to NZ. Does anyone have any information about the interior colours available for the V35 and G35?
