Ladies and Gents,

Im in the market now to change my stock 6 cd system to something that can play mp3s. Can anyone recommend a shop that has done this conversion?

In sydney please prefereably liverpool/fairfield area.

Thanks

If you are happy with the stock speakers... Grom unit does the trick nicely

Im happy with stock. However, seems like the cost of this is probably the same amount as getting another system installed. :-)

Tony I have a base model car so hence a basemodel system. i dont have any steering controls

Another system won't necessarily have the same level of integration with your factory controls as the Grom unit offers though.

Yes grom will work with that. You want to grab the nis02-cdc cable and firmware as the v35 doesn't have sat nav which the g35 does. The CDC emulates an external CD stacker and plugs straight in. Which retains all stock control whether you have steering options or not

do you know who can install these in Sydney?

  • INSANITI did you find out who works on audio in Syd? I've got a stock 03/4 system and pop up screen. Owned car 6 years and never worked.

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?

      You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
