Hi forumites. I have a 2002/2003 import fairlady. New car to me and I am electronically challenged. The car has the jap satnav and standard cd/radio installed. The previous owner bought a replacement head unit and had a go at replacing it himself, found it did not have euro connectors in the rear and gave up, leaving everything in situ but not plugged in (so no audio of any kind at present). I have no intention of replacing this myself and therefore took it to an established audio shop here in Tamworth (tamworth auto electrics) and had a chat with one of the owners. Now....he didn't actually say "F*** off and take that piece of JDM shite off my forecourt" - but that is exactly what I heard. He gave me 15 minutes of sucking in breath and talk of nightmare scenarios. Explaining that the units are inextricably linked and work on different planes of existence (electronically challenged remember). Something about the rear bose sub not linking to new head units, narrow bands or something. etc etc...then more sucking of breath. Is he talking crap? Can anyone recommend a good audio installer who has worked on jap imports without crying into his hankie? I am close to Tamworth but can travel pretty much anywhere...cos I got a Zed :-) Any ideas appreciated. Thanks for reading. Lupes

I meant on the car....

I want a stubby...oh..and a radio...

Cheers for the divider/Tonneau...was good to meet up and chew the zed-fat;-)

He did drive out of the road about 15 mins after you'd gone Ian...and gave it a short burst to be sure I heard his exhaust.

wow..what odds on that result!?

is this of any use to anyone? http://www.stream2watch.me/motor/moto-gp-grand-prix-qatar-2014-live-stream free practice stream :-)

Cheers Alfie...the driverside window motor arrived in super quick time. Good luck with the rest of the car! Lupes

So glad I'm not alone on this....I have an early import and the lefthand button...not worked out what its for either!

Wouldn't go so far as to say restoration....but it definitely needs some TLC..will get some pix up at the weekend.

So far 19" Rays & zigan exhaust (as it came)... tonneau on order from here...need to sort out the dead sound system and get shot of the jap satnav, not sure which way to go with that, but as it was a 3k purchase I can throw some money at it. Mod suggestions welcome!

It was my home town...now over in brummie overspill (tamworth)

Hi fellow-forum-folks. New owner here, picked up a reasonably cheap early import model. Lots of problems so far (hence being cheap!) but hopefully mostly sorted now. The guys at Thor will be replacing the powersteering pump next week. Arms like popeye after two weeks without powersteering! Lupes
