Hi everyone,

Tried running searches on this but didn't really given the answers I was looking for.

Wanting to replace the factory head unit from my '99 R34 GTR Vspec (has the factory sat Nav which is pretty much useless here in Aus).

Couple of questions.

Is there a wiring loom/harness 'off the shelf' that I can buy and connect to the standard stereo plugs to connect up to an aftermarket unit without having to cut and solder wires?

Also understand that I will need to convert the antenna lead to pick up radio here. Looking to install a unit with DAB radio and digital TV so is there a special antenna conversion lead that I need here?

Lastly, there were hell of a lot of plugs/wires from the factory sat Nav unit that are now redundant because I've pulled out the unit. Anyone know the best way to rips these wires out as it is taking up a lot of space and just want to tidy up cables.

Happy for anyone here that runs an audio shop to give me indicative costs for the labour here. Based in Canberra but occasionally head up to Sydney on weekend to visit folks.

Also happy for any ACT forum members that know how to do this. Will pay in beers and friendship :)

Thanks

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
