Hi guys.. jus bought a R33skyline.. and the headunit is an Eclipse DVD one..AVN7702D.. now the onli problem is that it doesn pick up FM stations as jap works i think from 75Khz to 90Khz... ive been told ineed an expander of somesort... doesn anyone know where i can get it from and roughly how much they cost?? also the DVD onli plays region 2 i think.. is there anyway to convert it to region 4??

also wondering is the stuff liek gps and tv going to work here?/i think all the stuff for gps is there.. i think its called VICS...but yeah.. not sure.. if someone could shed some light on this subject it would be much appreciated.

If your headunit reads on the Japanese FM frequency (~75-90kHz), you'll need a frequency/band expander to compensate.

^^ any car audio or dicksmith store should have it mihir..

Also it should not cost you more than 20bucks at most.

Try works auto site. im sure they have one!!

Also im pretty sure your Nav system wont work at all here.

You will need a seperate unit purchased from here!! i remember readin it on CAA..

However if you somehow do make it work, i got a remote for it that i found in my car when i got it. My car had nav system also, but they took it out in japan. However they left the remote in my car.

      It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.

      I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility

      I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...

      Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
