Stereo/radio/audio Problems

So I recently had a bit of a stereo overhaul on my V35. My CD player was jammed, so I got the whole rear replaced. I have added in a band expander. And I have had a 3.5mm audio jack inserted so that I can plug my Android phone straight into it and listen to songs from it from my phone. The guy at the stereo place explained that to use it, I need to turn on a switch because it uses the FM frequency to transmit, and I have to override the radio. When I tested it at the stereo place, all was fine. But when I went out on the road on a drive to the country, the music from my phone began to fade out and begun transmitting loud static noise. I assume this corresponded to how a radio frequency would have responded. I am sincerely hoping that they have not added in this function without informing me that I can only plug in my phone in areas where there are very strong radio signals. The whole point of it was to have access to music no matter where I was.

Can anyone shed some light on this matter for me?

there is a proper AUX in on those that they are not aware of. given that alberts rang me on yours a few weeks back I *think* I know what they did with it. FM transmitter with a 3.5mm plug and a swtich.

not a lot you can do I am afraid.

didnt ask if it had navi or not. if it does then I have a solution for it. if not I will have to drag a schematic out and knock up a plug for you.

Haha that's so cool that you just traced that job back to me.

Yes it was Alberts, and you are correct, that's exactly what they did. I did mention that I had AUX because I originally wanted a USB port or 3.5mm jack, and they told me the USB was too complicated.

If by Navi, you mean a DVD navigational system, then yes my car has it, however not converted to an Australian version.

they rang me on two of them. there was another that had a dead AC board as well.

as for true AUX - I have a lead for it.

USB I can also do and that will also have a b'tooth connection on it for hands free and streaming.

I offered both to alberts as a solution.

if you wnat either shoot me a message.

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.

      Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo

      Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
