*** UPDATED: New Link (again) ***
Hi all, I've just completed a quick guide to installing/replacing the head unit in an R33. Please check it out and let me know any comments or if I've forgotten anything important. http://r33stereo.groovesystems.net I hope someone out there will find this useful. Cheers, Greg. |

That's a great guide
 . I will using it for the installation of my new head unit (although I don't have a factory head unit in the car). Where did you order the tray at the bottom from?-------------------- It's Not Easy Being Evil...

They're on the way... I just have to do the install first.
The tray is a current model Pulsar tray from Nissan. Sorry about the size guys, sometimes I take cable for granted. I'll optimise the page better for dialup users tonight. -Greg. |

Nice guide
The only suggestion I'd make is instead of using the terminal blocks, I would go to SuperCheap or similar and purchase a Nissan adapter. It plugs into the factory Nissan loom and has flying leads at the other end. No butchering of the factory wiring required! -------------------- For sale - 1998 Mazda Astina, $9000 ono - Carsales BUY IT!

Revhead,
D'oh! I didn't know there were adaptors available. Can you post the product coding/pricing? I'll add it to the page. |

I'd love to but it's been about 18 months and I don't keep my packaging for that long
Here's what I do know: I bought mine from SuperCheap and it cost me about $5. You can get all kinds of adapters, like Nissan -> Kenwood, Toyota -> Pioneer etc, and also ones like the adapter I bought, which is a female Nissan plug going to flying leads, which you connect to the corresponding flying leads on the back of the plug supplied with your stereo.. If I go near SuperCheap (I live about a minute away) I'll get some more details and let you know. -------------------- For sale - 1998 Mazda Astina, $9000 ono - Carsales BUY IT!

I think some car audio places sell those adapters too.

The part I'm thinking of is an Aerpro AP7550 - Aftermarket Stereo to Nissan Harness. It was listed at $15.50 at SuperCheap, but as TT says, there's a pretty good chance they're not the only ones selling this kind of thing. Perhaps my price estimate was a little off though

I used an Aerpro double diversity antenna adaptor which I got from Autobarn, so I guess they stock them as well...
I wish I had of known about this earlier, oh well. 
Here's the page with the wiring harness AP7550: http://www.aerpro.com/cgi-bin/list.cgi?list=harnesses2 And the Nissan Diversity Adaptor AP348A: http://www.aerpro.com/cgi-bin/list.cgi?list=antennas |
