Delema...

Car has a CD player and a cassette/stacker. now the cd shows stuff (buttons) on the TV and the volume is on the cassette unit. I has an Alpine touch screen TV all in one from my last car.

My delema is I either disconnect the CD and cassette and have 2 dins spare then put my alpine in and have 1 spare.And thats counting on it fitting because the 34 has a slopey design and the top CD player sticks out a lot. I did actually get the TV to play movies via an external NTSC source but thats a bit gay.

Whatabout the soarers I heard the TV can be converted for TV signal.

Has anyone put a unit in before?

it sort of looks like this.

Not too sure what you're asking? I have got a 1 DIN sized CD/DVD/MP3 player in the top slot and a map pocket in the 2nd DIN slot.

I have my DVD player connected to the MFD via the simple modification you can do but my DVD player can output NTSC or PAL regardless of the DVD region. But yeah I hardly ever use it.

As for converting the MFD to receive aussie TV signals i dont think its possible or worthwhile. As far as I know the TV button isn't anything to do with receiving Jap TV at all and simply a toggle switch to go from MFD to NTSC input mode for things like sat nav, and other AV factory options.

no pics on me at the moment unforunately but there are no gaps at all. You will find that all aftermarket CD players come with little plastic surrounds that can be modified pretty easily if you find that there are some gaps. The way the R34 dash is designed tho the brushed aluminium covers the gaps up quite well.

And yeah, I can watch DVD's through the factory monitor. This requires a small amount of modification to the MFD. You have to pull it apart and solder two wires to various pins and mount an RCA socket on the back of it. Very simple to do.

mine has the TV button on the cd player. is that a hassle?

Is your's a Vspec? This mod only works for MFD's with TV buttons on the MFD itself as far as i know. This is my interior before I put an aftermarket CD player in:

That top "CD player" is a sat nav system :rofl: The CD drive is for the map CD/DVD. Its a bummer too because you cant make it work in Australia (the nav) and it kinda clutters up your dash.

One option would be to pull the unit out and get the non-nav climate control unit from Yahoo Japan auctions - then you get more space for your audio gear. I see them go pretty cheap occasionally.

hey guy! im interested to know what sort of ball park figures did it cost you's to import ur 34 gtr's?  

Cheers

Well i imported mine before import duty changed to 10% (was 15%) and when the aussie dollar was a bit weaker against the yen so it's not really relevant how much it cost to import.

I can tell you tho that there are a few more issues when importing a car worth over $60k like extra stamp duty and Luxury car tax that many "import cost calculators" dont take into account, then there's compliance cost blowouts like stock parts, and brembo brake pads.

It's not easy to have a good condition no accident damaged car landed and complied under $70k - then you gotta pay rego and stamp duty...

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
