I have an Android / WinCE head unit with front and rear RCA outputs.

The problem is the Android side of things only seems to output to the front RCA's (FL+FR).

(i can only select - left - right - two - off - for the android os sound output in the unit's main options)

The (crappy) WinCE side uses front and rear RCA's.

This goes for the normal speaker wires too.

Obviously I want to play music and media through the Android OS and utilize the dozens of awesome players and equalizers.

Plus this incarnation of WinCE looks and works like ass.

So I figured I only have one option.

Split the Front L RCA into 2 (Front L + Rear L into amp) and the Front R RCA into 2 (Front R + Rear R into amp).

I figure as long as left and right are separate, i can adjust fader (gain) at the amp. And freq for fronts at the amp too.

Will the sound quality, signal, etc suffer by using this method?

Is this a no-no?

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
