Does anyone have a clue whether a 6 stacker will work being controlled by another brand head unit.

The G/f is buying a S13 with a Sony h/u and a Sony 6 stacker. But we want to put a nice new Panasonic deck in there.

any Ideas???

In general, no it won't work. The stacker needs to be the same brand & vintage to work, although Sony & Kenwood used to be compatible years ago... If the plug is the same it's worth a try, but don't buy anything without seeing it work.

You'll just have to budget for a new stacker too. Damn!

personally, im not a fan of stackers n would stick with the panasonics with the mp3 playback...my mate just got one and its sooo nice. worth $1100 n he got it for $300!! i wish i couldve got one :)

my pioneer mp3 is good enough though.

if it dont work n u still want a stacker...go for a 10 instead of 6

i has heard that if u get a stcker and an mp3 h/u...the h/u decodes the mp3 and u still have a stacker...please correct me if i am wrong

i got confused when i saw that coz ive seen mp3 stackers, unless that is for a normal h/u, but then i figured it wouldnt have the folder menu's n stuff...

GO MP3!!

    • Thanks, I checked from the back of the cluster and no reading there. I undid the connector and plugged in the wires directly to start from where I'm getting a reading: https://imgur.com/a/W8JI6Yr Weirdly enough when I tried to get a reading from the crimps that connect to the fuel pump assembly, I got nothing. Not sure what's my next step as I have admittedly limited knowledge with electricity. 
    • Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.
    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
