  1. I finished my Alpine install today, after many failed attempts! It's actually perfect, but I haven't driven with it set up yet....so fingers crossed
  2. I am cheating and having mine detailed the day before! I will be taking the credit for it on the day
  3. DONE IT. Phew..... the cables needed splicing, which was frustrating. Then it took 4 attempts to refit with all the lengths of Ipod cable and steering wheel control cables etc... Cubby Shame about the wee gap at the bottom, but it doesn't bother me at the moment...it sounds too good for me to care and I can control via steering wheel ..really chuffed
  4. All hooked up, steering wheel controls work fine etc. Didn't need to splice and the volume is ok. However, my rear speakers aren't working at all......any ideas? I have a black and a yellow RCA cables left over coming from the adapter cables and another two little cables....which could solve my problems but I don't see anywhere to put them! The back of the headunit doesn't have any more inputs! So where do the yellow and black RCA cables go??? HELP
  5. Does anybody know where he is based and which events he is going to next? I have a company local that might sort me out, but I have the EXACT same size dinks in my door panel which need removing before Silverstone (31st!).
  6. Let me know, I might be interested too.
  7. Really looking foward to this
  8. I sold my GT4 wheels for £750 with tires, but one was kerbed. Hope this helps! P.s. Let me know if you get a GT4 and want to sell the wheels... I know somebody interested in a set (not me, even though I miss them! )
  9. Thanks, really can't put up with the skipping CD's and lack of Ipod coming from a pioneer setup in my Golf. Will report back once I get all the bits (hopefully before the weekend).
  10. Perfect, just ordered that Matt and the Facia......just hoping Sextons can get it out and delivered for Friday!
  11. Aha! I believe I was correct and the steering wheel connector is that circled silver thing. I will confirm tomorrow how I get along, BIG THANK YOU for all the advice
  12. Thanks for the info Richie, will have another stab tomorrow evening. As you can see on this image: There is nowhere other than the circled input by the white and red speaker cables.... which I believe is for grounding? So I am confused to where I put the steering wheel control cable now! Unless it goes in the Aux in (on the front ) The stereo also didn't come with an adapter , what adapter do I need from Male 350z Ariel to that Alpine Ariel female? I haven't spliced the cables, will do it tomorrow...but the dimming is surely meant to happen for night driving, so when you turn lights on ..it dims?
  13. So I had a stab at it... I bought the following bits from Sextons as per the guides: 1.) http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/alpine- ... l26fehjaj4 2.) 350z ICT Bose cable 3.) Alpine Head unit lead (29-001) Steering wheel cable Taken dash off fine and screwed in the new HU. Struggling to figure out which cable goes to what, especially as I want to retain the steering wheel controls. I successfully got power to the HU and it dimmed when I turned the lights on and off (so that's something correct), but have these cables spare which concerns me.....the cables didn't seem to match up to anything...where am I going wrong? My alpine supplied facia surround doesn't fit either I am really shocking with this kind of stuff, so any help is appreciated, even pointing out the obvious! (like the antenna cable )
  14. I am starting to fit my HU tonight - wish me luck!!
  15. Here is the register: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=999
  16. Thumbs-up friend! /Inbetweeners
  17. It's gonna be 111 ....all the one's!... I've been trying to locate info dedicated to the GT4's, which seems to be quite hard... every search I find links to the PS2 game only!! Any ideas?? I wanna benchmark what I have and then ... ahem, see what else I can add.. Welcome to the club and the even more exclusive GT4 club Well you have the rev up engine with 20bhp over that of the standard 2003-2005 engine so that sits you at 296bhp roughly. The stock ECU currently cancels out most breathing modifications (plenty of threads with the nitty gritty details), but there are a few options that are being tested at the moment for adding more BHP without going FI. I have fitted a popcharger (induction kit) which is cheap, quiet at low revs and sounds awesome when you put your foot down. This is purely for noise only though, as the ECU would cancel any gains from it. Same with exhaust etc etc. What info are you after? I am sure somebody with more knowledge would be able to help if you let us know what you are after?
  18. Looks good mate, how much did this wrap cost if you don't mind me asking? Something I have no interest in doing yet, but maybe one day when I want to extend my ownership this will give me a fresh start?
  19. Right, I got my cables from Sextons (albeit a few days late)....start installing my Alpine HU this week for Ipod and non skipping goodness!
  20. I don't count, so make that 0 friends!
  21. Let Zee come, I want to see his zed!
  22. Looking clean
