  1. Thought I’d post pics of the packages for those interested. The premium package is #16. Remote start, security with tilt sensor and remote and backup battery, auto fold mirrors and door illumination. Can post up pics of all the factory options and images from the factory options brochure if people are interested. I have all the dealer books etc for all rv37 models.
  2. Thanks Paul. i have Friends at Nissan. Acquiring and attempting an instal is no issue. Getting the system isn’t a problem, I’ll get it direct from Nissan Japan over Nissan Australia anyway. Cheaper and quicker! Do these mates get it working or is it just acquiring? Interested to know what was required to get it functioning if that’s what your meaning. An importer/dealer just sold one near me with remote start installed and working, and a believe they do their own compliance. But it still needs to pass the pits so that’s interesting reagrdin legalities. I know Vf commodores have it so assumed the modern skylines must meet aust standards.
  3. Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc? I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great. I don’t mine the ambience lighting. I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch
  4. Thanks for the feedback! “Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input? The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37.” I wonder if the extra plug out has anything to do with the factory optioned drive recorder, or traffic updates. It looks like these systems link to the main screens too, and probably rv37 specific over Q50 perhaps? “Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs? I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system. That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?” The car has a Japanese TV in it already. For compliance it will be disconnected I think. From what I read it only works when the handbrake is engaged anyways, but an aftermarket module can be installed for use with handbrake not applied. I was more so curious if there was a way to convert the NTSC to PAL for Australian operation. (I don’t need it but it’s cool to have the gadgets working) I have a BNR34 MFD I converted years ago to take PAL signal in my skyline and I linked it to the DVD Head unit for dual screen use. There was some write up on SAU back in the day how to do it and I can’t remember what was involved. So sorta curious what can be done here etc. “So, Pac posted in the other thread about a box that plugs into the USB C and gives you full Android OS to run whatever modern/connected nav you want on the top screen, and it still automatically switches back to function” The Rv37 model comes with Apple play and Android, I think the Q50 doesn’t? so for me I can simply plug my phone into the usb or maybe blue tooth and that will become it’s own Nav that way independent I’m happy for this option but again figured if there was a factory module can it be used or updated. It had SD card slot for map updates so I could update it if I can get AUS specific maps on it, That alibaba screen does look neat. I’m not ready to bust a move just yet on it or something like to as my car can take my Apple iPhone already. Also it doesn’t say it suits current model Rv37 skylines but the Q50, so perhaps it may not be skyline compatible. I’d love to see one installed to know first hand or even see one in Q50 and hear some feedback, is it cheap Chinese junk!? Is it good? Does it suit RHD? Is it internet compatible like a normal tablet, and will it support all rv37 specific options like map zoom and steering wheel control and Bose system and so on.. I’m certainly intrigued and interested I’ve done some digging around.; my local Nissan has a tech guy ex Infiniti and he wants to try trick the nav unit into think it’s q50 so it takes Aussie software or something, When it arrives I will take it there and see what he can do. Also seems we no longer have Nissan connect app available in Australia now. I’ve read my dealer books etc at home and it seems in Japan via that app you can purchase internet plans for the rv37 skyline to work through the screens inside. it seems that you can get traffic updates, it links to ETC, and I believe the in car specific recorders. This video then is all stored and visible via app. the Nissan connect app can also be used for remotely starting and controlling heaters etc from afar. Seems tv was also part of this. I’ll have a further look and play when it arrives. (I wonder if I can somehow get the Japan version of Nissan connect on my phone and use the remote start features etc) App Store won’t allow it as region specific- need configure that one rv37 has multiple security options and packages. Premium package comes with tilt sensor, remote and battery in siren, and can be bundled with auto mirror retract when locked, door jam illumination when opened on drivers side only, and also remote start. Otherwise all modules can be purchased separately and still applied but easier to do as a whole and bundle for shared hardware and looms. (This is where Nissan Japan have advised the security part needs a dealer device to set up). Australia dealers have advised me Australian delivered models weren’t offered factory optioned security systems so they don’t really know what’s entailed and what device. Nissan Japan state that the other components like mirror retract and door lighting and remote start should still work on that package even if security doesn’t (however security still may). I’m tempted to purchase and take the risk on this. There’s a possibility it can be made to work by piggybacking off signals etc instead too. im curious if any Q50 owners have a factory optioned security system with these options or just a factory optioned system. If so I’d imagine the same device or process for installation should be needed meaning someone with Q50 dealer Experience may know. (Waiting on my local tech to get back to quiz further here prior to ordering) and like q50 some of the v37 models have the scuff panel illumination and the footwel illumination too. I see 400R wasn’t compatible according to Nissan diagrams. I’m guessing it didn’t have a plug out for this. Would be a nice addition… I wonder if anyone has this in a rv37 or q50 and has a wiring diagram or booklet for installation to know where to piggyback the system too. Seems to activated by door opening, so if imagine it would grab a door ajar signal and 12v and earth and probably ignition, but curious to know more as it’s pretty much the only factory option the 400R doesn’t take. Thanks for your inputs. I’m finding so little information rv37 skyline specific as apposed to Q50 so trying to pioneer forwards and see can and can’t work and what options are there to help. I’ll keep updated when the car is landed and ready to play with on these things in the hope it helps others and my journey can assist. Appreciate any input and help. Cheers
  5. Thanks mate for that reply. Very helpful. it’s a 2022 400R so would most likely lose those features as you say. I did a quick compare of a rv37 nav and heading for sale in Japan to q50 model. I’ll pop pics below. Seems Japan spec head into top, nav unit second below it below pic Q50 aud delivered differences seem to be Aus delivered has a different plug top left hand side of head unit- not sure what and where it goes. and nav unit Japanese tv37 had an extra plug put Again I’m really not sure what each of these differences mean! the actual plugs on a v37 and q50 screens look identical on both screens… pics below for comparing. (One screen was is a us delivered one) but should be same gps signals etc as Australia. If it were as simple as swapping a nav unit from q50 aud delivered im interested -just want to figure out what the missing plug is for before spending big $ on a second hand part for it to not work, and I guess with the head unit, if the band expander does the job (I got a 20mHz so should get the range I’m after) so should narrow my issue down to nav unit only. I’d love to know what the extra cable on rv37 does and if I eliminate that part what it’ll do to the setup, and also, if I can figure out what that head unit plug difference is, what does that cable do and where does it got can it be altered or re-plugged?! Excuse my ignorance what is ACP/AA, what does that stand for? (Apple car play? Android air play)? so If I swapped head units to save using a band expander, I’d likely lose those better features to have an oem Unit operational. Better to use a band expander and retain AirPlay options and newer version of head unit provably best to band expand it, and focus on the nav unit. th isn’t a big deal/ would be cool to have it working from what I can tel we use a PAL Signal and Japan uses a NTSC signal I don’t know if there’s a co better or if the screen only reads NTSC, or if it’s the tv module that needs replacing… no big deal don’t need it but more of a curiosity thing on that! Thanks for the info re tyre sensors, helpful and great to know. I was reading the online manual off Japan website and it seemed to make it sound more confusing than it is I guess a rim replacement would require the sensors to be moved to a new rim to carry that option over?! Thanks for the info regarding diagnostic mode. I appreciate your help mate. Trying to brainstorm here to find a solution to get as much gadgets as I can working! I plan to get my local Nissan tech to have a look too who used to be at an Infiniti dealer back in the day to see if any thing they have or idea can find a soliton. But hoping anyone here has gone down the same route to make life easier!! i guess identifying the cable/plug differences and what they do would be a great way of finding out if the units are transferable thanks again
  6. Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with. Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work? Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here? also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here. also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system? any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here. Thanks in advance
  7. Yes if you’re still looking for answers.
  8. Hey mate, wondering if you have the dimensions for battery cover at all? I have the Bnr34 battery tray in the trunk and trying to find the right one, if one fits for this setup. Epc data and Amayama list one for gtt but not GTR, but curious if there’s any that will actually fit this setup. Thanks
  9. Nismo 480cc top feed injectors for rb25det neo. Brand new genuine Nissan seals, freshly ultrasonic cleaned and flow tested. Unfitted and unused since cleaned. Great condition. These are good for around the 285rwk mark; were running over 300rwk but working at capacity so have upgraded to suit my needs with the engine. $450 firm Located South Australia, happy to post. Pm or contact via 0419837474
  10. Currently looking for a r33 gtr in midnight purple due to no longer being able to use the one lined up. If anyone has, or knows of someone please hit me up. Pbeck I have emailed you, If I can't find a gtr I may well be interested. Thankyou
  11. Thanks for the offer of the gtst bud! I've got 23,33,34 sorted was just hoping to find a 35 to finish it off!!
  12. I've got an r34 gtr mnp2 Lined up with a r33 autech gtr and an R32 in mnp... I doubted there is any opal R35s around in sa but this was my best shot to ask!! Another mnp gtr, pref r34, would probably not go astray however!
