Hi,

I was wondering if you could offer some advice. I currently own a R33 that has 2 din's in the dash free. I currently have a huge gaping whole in my dash. Anyway, I intend on using one for gauges, and the second for the stereo.

The only problem is, I have heard a lot of bad press (rightfully so) about stolen HU's, so I'm after a stealth install.

Would it be possible to fit a HU behind the front panel of the single din dash tray. As you all probably know, there is a cover for the tray which can be closed. I thought it would be perfect to hide the stereo behind that.

Thoughts? I don't mind fabricating the the tray cover, but for those who have one, do you think if would be feasible.

On a side note, does anyone have a tray, with this cover for sale?

Thanks heaps!

ps, for those who don't know what the tray looks like, please refer to

Grim sorry mate, I stole your picture as the example.

Cheers!

Scotty,

The easy way out is to have a stereo with a removable face, then it is useless to the crooks. Hiding gauges, boost controllers is also an issue, as they are expensive to replace but you still want them visable. Just get a really good car alarm, don't make anything too obvious and wish for the best.

See'ya:burnout:

yeah.. its a lot easier to just get a head unit with a removable face.. and then tint your windows..

and make sure there is nothing valuable left in your car.. so they wont want to break into it..

and also..

dont leave jackets lying in conspicious places.. coz thieves will think that there is something hidden under there

Hey,

Thanks all for your reply. Yes, I too agree with the detachable face option and I will be getting one without a doubt. Most upper market stereos have this as standard anyway.

I too will be getting the Brant Nemisis car alarm, but regardless of whether it is detachable, the extra security gives peace of mind. That's why I still want to conceal it completely.

Oh well, I'll get a single din dash and see if it works. If so, I'll upload a few pic for you guys.

So, yeah, anybody got one for sale?

Thanks.

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
