How come the R34 GT-R often came with just a tape deck?

[T0nyGTSt]

And a shit Nissan/Philips unit at that!

I see many internal R34 interior shots. Even the Nismo R/S/Z-Tune ones just used a stock tape deck.

What about the R33? Still a crap tape deck?

I mean on the 34 you have a fullee siikk TV unit, the neat digital climate control and then a tape deck?

It's a bit incongruous.

Spare thought for some people out there; the Evo Lancer doesn't even come with a stereo!

From what some r34 owners had told me the cd is a factory option

dude, which evo your referring to...they are fitted with Mitsubishi Cassette Unit, the stacker is optional. From E7 they are CD headunits std.

Spare thought for some...MB headunits are Mitsubishi Units underneath at one stage...maybe still do, not sure.

But what's concerning is the built in headunits on cars these days, you basically have to hack up the center console to fit any aftermarket headunit.

Oh sorry, I remember reading something in wheels magazine that stated the Tommy Mako Evo didn't come with a stereo???

fhrx: no worries, yeah Aust didn't get a TME GSR spec. But an RS2 spec which is an inbetween spec between a GSR and RS Spec, no stereo as you would expect for weight saving...so you're also correct .

cause when you have a car with shit loads of power...you would be concentrating on driving more than worrying bout what your listening too

The tape deck is the last thing a real car enthusiast cares about.

then spare a thought for someone that owns a GT3 porsche or new M3 CSL hasent got sterio, ac or sound deadner!!

Actually *** them if they can afford one of those cars

The top of the line NSX Type-R has manual window winders, manual mirrors, no radio, no aircon. Interior is suede and vinyl finish.

But with the alloy and carbon panels it weighs in at 1,270kg!

WRX and EVO weighs more.
