Ahh I see what your talking about. The common way to get AUX sound into the M35 stock isn't to remove that cord, but to leave it in place a run an aux cord off the TV tuner in the rear LH boot trim. It sends a signal tho the screen and the screen in turn pushes the Audio out the head unit via that wire I believe.

Doing it this way you can also display video (NTSC in potato resolutions only though).

Or just upgrade the head unit, it's usually more cost effective.

I would also run a new 12v wire to the clarion receivers in the boot roof to allow for a steady voltage feed and improved reception.

For my 1000th dumb noob question, what are the receivers you speak off? Receivers for TV or radio?

They are in the top rear passenger side of the rear roof lining. If you remove the rear roof panels you will see them (2). They amplify the signal from the glass

Well just fitted a new Sony Head unit.

Took my time , used the Iso harnesses.

All went well, tested for sound before refitting everything.

Not much room behind the head unit for cables, especially with added iso plugs and leads.

Tucked in all in gently, put it ALL back together, now one speaker doesn't work.

Great.

Could be faullty head unit, faulty nissan iso harness, faulty sony harness or a break in one wire some where.

If you tested it and everything work before you push the HU back in then maybe a wire got crunch/fell out soft of thing? Which ISO did you use?

I"m the Aerpro man here, if you suspect the iso harness screw up, give me the part # and i can check for you.

Sorry to bother you. Can you advise me of the correct Aerpro part number for adapter cable to suit the Bose stereo model please? My plan is to simply feed an MP3 player into the system initially, then remove the CD-ROM drive and install a 'proper' car stereo. Mine is a 2001 M35 Stagea, BTW. I don't feel like spending a fortune ($500.00+?) replacing the whole centre section, just so I can fit a double DIN unit.

Sorry but i'm not 100% clear on what you're after.

You after ISO harness or T-harness?

If you want something like an RCA in so you can feed your MP3 player into the Unit, first of all, your unit needs to have an AUX button, then you can start from there.

I don't have a Bose HU in my stagea so i don't really know what they look like and what the rear plug looks like either.

Since I have not pulled the stereo out yet, I don't know what I require. Sorry to be so vague. I am comfortable with electronics, so I can make pretty much anything work with anything, but I figured the Aerpro cable might make my life easier. See, I plan to do the whole job in a day (or two), so I wanted to have any adapters to hand before I start. I really don't want to strip the dash out, work out what is needed, reassemble, order the parts, then strip it all down again. Make sense? There is no AUX input on my Stagea stereo, though I was told it is a Bose system.  I have enclosed a photo of my Stagea stereo and the DVD ROM can be seen to the left of the photo. My plans are as follows (subject to change and not necessarily in this order):

* Rip out the stereo and the DVD-ROM drive. 

* Install a cheap radio/CD/MP3 player where the DVD-ROM drive is. 

* Locate the line level section of the cassette deck, break the line and terminate in a 3.5mm socket, so an i-phone/MP3 player can be plugged in.

* Integrate the radio/CD/MP3 player into the system.

* Install a new SATNAV/reversing camera somewhere.

 

BTW: I know what an ISO harness is, but not a "T-harness'.

 

Thanks for your advice and assistance. I am pretty new to Stagea ownership (2 weeks).

I see

Sounds like you just need a Nissan Bose to ISO, ISO to your HU brand, any Autobarn or SCA can help, i believe the boys here said nissan patrol iso harness will suit.

Not sure if Bose is any difference, you have built in Sub & Amp, if so then you might also need a low or high level converter.

I'm new to the Stagea myself, yet to pull the HU out to check as i'm going to set up GPS/Reverse cam but i'm lucky enough the car already comes with a Double Din Slot.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
