Hi Every1,

Was wondering if anybody has the part numbers for what would be known as a 'double din conversion kit' for a R34 GTR?

Interested in how many parts are included in the kit.

I have factory NAV in my GTR, hence why I need it. Wondering whether the air con replacement is a new facia which snaps on to the existing air con control unit, or whether you need to replace the whole thing?

Thanks in advance.

Its already double din iso ( tiny bit off double din todays standard but not much to worry about )

No kit needed but some trim rings wont fit right without filing the trim ring slightly or some dont need trim ring mounted , only slot the existing holes in the cage holding the radio to set it back a bit further to make it look perfect

Note tape a thick soft towel around the console / gear surround to set the razor sharp cage on or it farks the surround black bits and its near impossible to repair ,

Double din rules fark the single din look is boring

Hello, thanks for your reply.

My car has the NAV unit, I need to convert it to the one like in the pic in the previous post.

Air con controls are one step further down and the NAV unit controls are in its standard place. The air con unit is a little bit smaller than standard.

Its been covered a few hundred times

But you just need the face plate off a newer or gtt , gt model car for the a/c and move it up a spot

The double din cage exists already behind the pocket

The controls fit exactly the same just fills the gap all the way across

The nav wont work here anyhow , the mfd will and can be used still , where are you located

Chris rogers on sau deals a lot with these parts and will help you a fair bit

Mine has ambient air , the newer cars came with it , mine has snow package as well , heated mirrors , sunroof heater and a super demist function in the control for a/c

i have a few facia's in the shed i'll see if i can find the part # in am

The parts dont have embossed numbers and no stickers?

Pm your email addy and i can send photos to you of what I'm

Talking about ( crappy iphone not able to use flash to upload !!)

And photofark it times out

you only need the plastic face not the guts , it just unsnaps

And you swap them over , screw to cage and back into car screws under mfd

And vents out

Yes mate, spot on.

Yea fair enough, mine came with the aircon unit up top so cant help you much there.. i just removed the old single din unit and replaced it with a nice alpine unit.... goes really will with the interior i think.. not cheap though.

you palnning on putting in something like that?

Sorry thats not right

You only need the facia not the whole A/C climate control , gtr and some of the other R34 have ambient air temp sensor as well so you have to be careful which one , the silver knob pushes in on ambient air temp model the other one wont

The sensor is just in front of the lower driver side radiator , a plug with a small item in held out space and held on with 10 mm bolt

You just unsnap the old single din shaped faceplate, unbolt the circle behind the knob first

And slap on the new wider angled one its that easy and bolt on the circle bit and shove the knob back on , its a good time to go change the lights to LED since a lot are burned out and dated looking anyhow

    • I had 3 counts over the last couple of weeks once where i got stranded at a jdm paint yard booking in some work. 2nd time was moving the car into the drive way for the inspection and the 3rd was during the inspection for the co2 leak test. Fix: 1st, car off for a hour and half disconnected battery 10mins 4th try car started 2nd, 5th try started 3rd, countless time starting disconnected battery dude was under the hood listening to the starting sequence fuel pump ect.   
    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
