Hey guys,

If i can find a place and get the RCA cables , anyone wanna have abit of a meet and greet somewhere or something, to give me a hand to get the RCA's laid properly once and for all, and get em into the boot ready for the box / amp [at home of course atm or if its away from my place or what not... ill bring it wid me but i can do the tuning or so i hope :) ] it would be much appreciated...

where is somewhere i can get A) FUSE for the power wiire from battery to amp... and secondly RCA cables...

Answer to question A:

You can get fuses and RCA's for car audio stuff from JB hifi or any other car stereo place. The best thing to do (and the easiest) is just buy one of the wiring kits. They come with power lead, fuse, fuse holder, earth wire, terminals etc.

I havent had any experience with audio stuff in skylines though so cant help you out there. Just give it a shot, you cant really stuff it up, just make sure the power cables and the RCAs go down opposite sides of the car.

Ok ive got a r32 so the batts under the bonnet. You can get the fuses and rcas from anywhere as i mentioned.

Most people are at work at the moment, including me. Come along to a cruise or meet and im sure there will be heaps of people willing to give you a few pointers.

RCA's, like rhett said are very easy to get. Go down to JB hi fi or Autobarn whoever. They all have them. How many channels does the amp have? What do you plan on powering with the amp, subs obversely, but also any splits or 6x9's?

Oh and what area of town are you in?

its a mono block 1500watt Epsilon amp... one channel i believe... ;)

and i just dont know what gauge i need... ive got the biggest fitting gauge power wire that i can just slot straight into the ports in the amp.. but if i could go bigger if its of any use / enhance anything and theres a way to get it in i would....

i just need RCA's and a fuse to put int he power wire...

problem is, A) i dont wanna damage the liner one bit and id rather the help of someone thats done it before so i dont screw up :(

Unless your running mega power for some sort of competition car stero i think the wire you have should be fine. The only probelm i can see is running the rca cables through the car. I did this but running it under the carpet in the middle of the car, under the seat and up into the boot. Power wont be and issue as the battery is in the boot already, so just put in the fuse between the battery and the amp, and wire in the power cable. Dont forget a decent grounding cable aswell. If you need help and feel like a drive to Wheelers Hill (near glen waverley) pm me, i will be trying to fit my cooler tomorrow but will still see if i can help.

      A Boy's Love For His Rb20

      Started sifting thru my brakes to decide which ones I will run on Clem   Made me think I should just put them all on Silver...for when brake fade just isn't an option   Should be able to bump rotor up from 343x32 to 348x36 off Supra. Not sure if the Supra annulus is right for the Alcons or APs but trying g to find a used Supra\M4 rotor to test fit The Alcons seem to gain 1-2mm clearance which all helps

      HR34 GT speedo issue

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.

      Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate
