there not to bad, I bought one 2 years ago, and it lasted me about 8 months before the screen no longer folded in and out properly, it would fold out when i started the car, then fold itself back in, or it would get stuck, it ate one of my favourite CD's and it ended up out the window on the hume hwy.

you get what you pay for, i suggest saving your money, these days you can get something decent from a trusted brand, with a warranty for 700+ so I suggest saving your money, especially if you have a nice car for it to go in :)

FYI

Just a quick update ipad tablets fit in R34 dash's with mods but same basic dash shape and console area, only the bezel trim and ashtray area needs remolded

They can be perm mount or slide out depending on how custom you want !! Test fit in my car today , plenty of space

And no metal to hit if you slide out on drivers side of lower fash , passenger side has a bracket

so before anyone asks ues you can do it

Cheers

Fits in the dash of a R34 without excess mods or cutting , photos coming of kit fitment in dash

Could fit in just about any newer Nissan

Carbon also sells plug in connectors for most Nissan's for the home enthusiast installer!!! You only need a car side plug and the radio side plug like the following:

APP0120.jpg + APP8ALP.jpg = an installed head unit on a R34 :D

Plugs are about $15 each free postage for SAU!!

Some cars need extra parts like antenna adapters for the early Nissans if you have the standard head unit still installed.

Give us a call if you need anything we can try to help out.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
