Just discovered something...

torpedo2k · 01-03-2011, 06:13 PM

After having the car for ~48 hours- I just discovered something- it has a radio in it!

And not a very good one... not that it matters.

Mine has a CD player and 4 SPEAKERS!..... That's right 4 that's twice as much as a boom box or 4 times as much as my cell phone. And when the bass hits oh man........

Gotta agree... the radio blows in the Nismo. You've reminded me that I need to remedy this issue.

yeah our radios suck..lol

Yea, but a crappy radio is easy to remedy. You don't even have to worry about bypassing amps or anything. Upgrading a Bose is a PITA, but luckily it does the job for what I bought this car for.

Very happy w/the hu now that we replaced it. Speakers will eventually get replaced too. Stock stereo is pretty horrible.

Yup, this car is easy to upgrade. I have already ordered the parts. My plan of action as time allows:
1- Replace HU adding steering wheel control unit.
2- Replace door/dash speakers. Adding window tint (50%) at the same time.
3- Eventually add 10" sub/amp

I'd be interested to see some pictures of your audio upgrade. Let us know how it goes.

Will put some more pics up later. I'm not going crazy with the upgrade. Keeping it clean and simple. Clarion radio, Kenwood speakers. Sub later.
