California build thread
Well thought I would get this thread started for the up coming week.
Looking forward to doing a total of 6 370z's including one roadster. Pics will be uploaded at the end of the day with full details as you all come to expect from my builds. As for those of you that do not know: I was flown to California for 9 days by 6 people to do work on their 370z's. Here is that thread http://www.the370z.com/audio-video/4...ome-build.html |

Finished the build yesterday but forgot finished pics.
NOTE The bose system is not something to have be taken as a easy upgrade. I ran into a few problems and one still exists, alternator wine!! We are still trying to figure out if there is a way to get rid of it our last hope is a noise filter or ground loop isolator. I will be putting up a in depth write up on the bose system and upgrading it. In the end if you even think you are not going to be happy with the bose, either get a base or the bose system without nav, because once you have the nav you can not take it out. Rear view camera and speed bypass installed. http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...e/IMG_6623.jpg http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...e/IMG_6624.jpg http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...e/IMG_6625.jpg The bose harness http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...e/IMG_6626.jpg Rear camera http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...e/IMG_6627.jpg |
