hey guys does anyone know what the DIN slot actually means?

i ask because i want to buy a drink holder to fit in the empty space under my cd player (which i assume is a DIN slot?

i asked the seller and he replied:

Hi, I'm not 100% sure to be honest but if you can fit a single-din head unit then you should have no problems fitting this din pocket underneath. The drawers open out 85mm so just check that they won't clash with the gear stick.

now i know the drawers opening out 85mm will be an issue when im in park but i dont need to use them while in park, i just want to know if it will fit in the DIN slot? does anyone know?

I am ot the opinion that it is an automotive standard that probably originates from Germany. It is simply a standard size hole (width and height) in the dash to fit audio equipment. By having this standard all of the aftermarket audio gear is designed to be the same size.

What stuffs you up is when some manufacturers like Mazda make standard sterio units that are 1.5 din size high and you have to make up a small cover panel when you replace it with a standard din unit.

We are lucky with Nissan because most of the factory audio gear is the larger 2 din size which then gives you room for another slot for gauges or a pocket.

A :google: search revealed something along these lines...

DIN Deutsche Industrial Norms (German standards agency)

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
