Thanks, yes, the whole point of the sound in the car was to have one of the best sounding Skyline-stereos in the world. And I think my car is pretty damn close to being among the top 10, not that I have listened or seen anything like this in a Skyline. :)

To reach good sound quality and power I have so far in my car:

Pioneer AVH-P6500DVD Headunit

Pioneer DEQ-P6600 Digital Sound Processor

Xbox

Rockford Fosgate 12" subs x 2 (trunk)

Rockford Fosgate 10" subs x 2 (backseat)

Rockford Fosgate 6.5" system x6 (front with 4 tweeters, back, trunk)

Rockford Fosgate Amps x 3

Tudor Maxxima DC 900 battery

Rockford Fosgate Condensator

30A power charger

Extra monitors in trunk and sunscreen

Mate sweet as set-up.

guys u gotta hear one of these set-ups. i was out alst nite with a few mates crusin round and one of them has a complete Rockford-Fosgate set-up, pretty much the same as yours and the sound quality i phenominal! I mean u can stand outside and have the car going past and u can hear everysingle word so clear its not funny!

The quality when its really crankin some big soundlevel is exactly the same.

If i has the money i would definately be getting a Rockford-Fosgate install!

When are you going to start work on the rest of the car???

The stereo is mean but the front seats could use a retrim and some hectic mags wouldnt go astray !!!

Umm as for sound deadening what have you done? ... i have two JL 12in subs squeesing out somewhere around the 130dB mark my car from outside sound like its farting and everything shakes and rattles you got the same prob with your setup???

If you dont what did you do to fix it???

Rest of the car? Well, everything one step at a time. I changed color on rims and now starting to tune, I have ordered HKS blow valve and Blitz intake.

Im sure the chairs will change, but still looking for best price and wont buy until I find really what I want (or find sponsor :) )

Actually I havent done any deadening at all, the car is very tight and I have no metall rattling when standing and listening outside. :huh:

now THAT is a sound system :P thats what i wanna do to my car when i get more money, i just spent 2 gran on new rims lol, so it may be awhile, atm im runnin a pioneer p9650mp headunit, 10cm pioneers in the doors and pioneer 6x9's in the rear parcel shelf, i also wanna get a pioneer dvd player to replace the lil try thing we put in above the headunit, and as for the boot.... :D

major plans, sub wise i wanna get these awsome new blankpaut 12" subs, they have like a lil blue led running around them and stuff, they look sweet, dunno what else yet, i'll have to consult this thread when the money comes in :D

got a pic of ur head unit install? i'm curious to know wether or not the head unit can be put in the top slot instead of the bottom, as i rekin the tray looks better below the HU....the R33 i might be buying, i'll replace the HU it has asap, as its Mini disc, and it just has a hole above it, where a controller of some type used to be...

where did you get the tray ?

nah soz dude i dont, the trays comin out but to make way for a dvd player :P

ummm just go to a nissan dealership, and say you want a tray from the center console bit from a 99 pulsar, i think thats what it was i dont rember now, but yeah find a thread on here about "nstalling a headunit in an R33" coz thats where i got all the info from

    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
