Hey guys,

I have been planning my stereo upgrade, but have had a change in direction (going to go all in and throw out the entire Bose system instead of trying to work around it). Unfortunately, this decision happened after I purchased a few things which I no longer need.

ITEM: JL Audio 500/1 V1 Class D Mono Amp

PRICE: $250

CONDITION: Used

DESC: It's a couple of years old. No scratches, just a bit dusty. Rated at 500WRMS @ 4ohm - it's currently driving a 250WRMS Sub, so it has had a very easy life. This is a top quality amp - only selling as I've bought a 5Ch amp so I can one run one amp to power my whole system and hide everything under the carpet in the boot.

ITEM: Infinity Kappa 60.9CS

PRICE: $210+postage

DESC: I was planning using these in my rear doors, but have since found they don't fit (too deep). . The Infinity speakers can be run off a headunit with good results due to their efficiency (sensitivity rating of 93dB which no speakers in this price range can match). But they will also take 90WRMS, meaning if you want to amp them down the track, they will be up to the task. They're a highly underrated speaker - see review below......

CONDITION: Brand new in unopened box.

ITEM: PAC ROEM NIS2

PRICE: $45+postage

DESC: Fits most Nissans (200sx, 350Z etc - see link for compatability) This is a must have for anyone who is planning on using an aftermarket head unit. When you change the head unit, you lose the digital signal that the Bose system runs off, resulting in a large loss in sound quality. This is a simple plug n play that goes into the Bose harness on one side, and into your head unit harness on the other end. With head units so cheap at the moment, it's the perfect time to upgrade.

CONDITION: Brand new in unopened box.

Pickup is avail in Melbourne CBD or buyer pays postage.

(Prefer not to post amp - it's heavy and fragile but it's your call.)

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
