I just installed a cd/dvd/tv unit as well and I am wanting to hook up a reversing camera. Does anyone know which wire I need to attach the unit to to switch to the camera when I hit reverse?

Cheers

i powered my cam from the reverse lights in the rear door as i mounted mine just under the handle.

cool cheers, I was thinking I might put it there. I can use the reverse light wire at the rear to power the camera. However what about the trigger wire from the head unit? Where abouts is the reverse light wire in the dash? Is it under the centre console? Which color? (I haven't had a look yet, so it may be obvious to me when I take it out next. I just thought someone may be able to save me the trouble)

Thanks again

:P

Can i get some kind of confirmation on the stereo wiring for the S2? Or if anyone knows of a adaptor kit?

I ask as i am lookign at a 2 din hole with two blank connectors, and i know i have 6 speakers (2 pillar tweeters).

Thanks in advance!

just a question for everyone in here who has taken there dash apart a few times, does anyone else have spastic cup holders? what did you do to fix them? mine sort of work but they hang to one side and look funy.

You will only have 4 pairs of speaker wires, the A pillar speakers are "splits" with the front door speakers.

Has anyone put a double din head unit into a C34? Just wondering if there are any issues with it.

I've done it . Absolutely no probs, just follow the DIY. Get a plug to suit from JB, cut and solder.

Thanks to STAGE-A for the wiring

12V ------- Brown with white stripe

Ignition -------- light blue with yellow stripe

Lights -------- Red with blue stripe

Earth -------- Just use the stereo metal brackets

and heres the speaker connection wires (stagea s1 at least)

left front ---- blue (+) black with white stripe (-)

right front ---- brown (+) black with red stripe (-)

left rear ----- mint green (+) black with yellow stripe (-)

right rear ---- orange (+) black with pink stripe (-)

On my S2, i found the RL & RR polarity was reversed to the above stated. and i also had two spare wires :)

installed a new HU on the weekend

bought the Aerpro antenna adaptor, and found i got good reception even without combining both the antenna's

spliced into the black/yellow wire, and it seems radio reception is fine, haven't tested extensively yet

ran the ipod cable into the centre console, and a bluetooth mic into the exmpty switch next to the rear demister

lots of fun to work with. . . not!

Quick question I need clarification on...

Will an S1 Xanavi unit be a direct swap into an S2 with the Factory CD/cas unit?

I believe it will. But why would you want the Xanavi unit anyhow?

just to let everyone know, there is probably an adaptor from aerpro that will plug into the stock harness

i dont know what the part number is but my r32 took the same part as a gq patrol which is about the same age so i would suspect that an adaptor is available to prevent having to cut and solder and also save time

Interesting...so Does the S2 car that has xanavi use the same looms/wires/sockets or whatever for air-conditioning... as one that didn't come stock with the xanavi unit?

No it does not.

One would require something like this: http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e93993162

Ahh bugger. I'll be needing to buy one of them. Could you tell me the name of it so i know what to search for when it comes time.. please. haha

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
