I bought the PAC OEM-1 transmitter but all of my amps were blown so it didn't work. I even read up on the forums and tried soldering on new transistors to all of the amps, but they were so busted that only one worked with the new components. What ended up working for me (and sounding way better than I expected) was cutting the positive and negative speaker cables and the yellow and purple cables going into the amp plugs. Splice the green (negative) speaker cable to the yellow amp cable and splice the red (positive) speaker cable to the purple amp cable, then plug in the positive and negative tips of the speaker cables back into your speaker. Completely bypasses the amp and redirects the signals directly to the speakers.

Best Z channel out there.

Hey Jeremy. Good detailed tutorial. Thnx. With regards to a few questions about people seeing a battery drain after installing. A simple solution using your idea of the toggle switch for antenna why not use a second toggle if you're doing the install anyway and it can be used like a dead man switch to kill power to the head unit after you turn off the ignition? Just a thought.

Nice install bro, i was doing this to my Z only to find out my factory harness has been so i gotta redo a whole bunch of wiring lol

very informative. wonderful video!

Did you ever get the Atoto s8 to talk to the Z with the conzult cable? I'm very interested In this idea

Hello , i only have factory speakers still on my 93 Zx can i still use the Atoto and run it on regular speakers with buying the adapter?

I know you said we must connect all the accessories. In this case if we don’t want to plug in the mic or the GPS, I think it should be fine? If you use Apple car play in my case, your phone covers it all. Also, I believe there’s a built in mic at the front of the unit that should be enough. Also, any battery drainage issues at all? Just out of curiosity.

Jeremy, my man at it again. Another great video! Question for you, my 91 TT has the Bose system, amp and speakers all replaced with a whole different system. Do I still need the PAC OEM harness? Kindly advise.

Hi, do you have to connect the parking brake wire? If yes where exactly do you connect it? Which color is the factory parking brake wire color?

So if I buy these components can I just replace the 4 different factory speakers with no issues? I've heard because of the bose system you need to change a bunch of thing. I just bought 4 new speakers, but learned I need to rewire a bunch of stuff. If this makes it easy, I'll buy it all.

Does the PAC module light up when it’s wire properly? I noticed it looks like it had lights on it to signify those particular speakers are getting power.

clean wiring, great job

Hello. So i just bought everything basically in the video except i bought the a6 pf atoto, i followed all the instructions but when i plugged it in all the speakers were super quiet even with every volume setting turned up. Can anyone help me out

Do I need the PAC-OEM 1 transmitter if I have the bose system but replace the speakers and remove the amps? Great video btw I've been wanting to do this as well. Side note zspec also sells the finishers that go over the screws if you want to replace that broken one

Any issues with the back of the stereo getting hot? I installed mine and it’s getting very hot. I unwired it all up for now until I can figure out why. Any feedback would be appreciated!

I like the idea of a generic android head unit. Can you mirror your android phone to it?

can you program the atoto to have a custom start sound? I want my z32 to have a gundam startup sound. also, do you need the transmitter if you don't have a bose system?

has there been any problems with this draining the battery?

Very fancy!

Thanks!!!

Would that ground affect the cluster? Curious because i installed a double din into my Z and none of my gauges work at all, or light up. Wondering if that ground might be my issue? Great video though! Im gonna have to run all new speaker wire for my Z this will come in handy!

Do you need the PAC system if you run your own aftermarket amps?

💪👍💯

I did mine today and there’s no sound
