Cheers

Nobby, we don't know each other, not that it's at all relevant. We're all busy here, in our own way - perhaps some more so than others. Regardless, we've all taken the time to do the same homework th

June was the expected date but it is taking a bit longer than anticipated. The english conversion is not the hard part, it is protecting them selves against people doing multiple installs and not getting their fair return for all their work. They are creating a dealer pack that will allow them to control the number of installations from each disc.

I will keep you posted if there is any news of an earlier release. Trust me, I want the conversion as much as the rest of the M35 and V35 owners.

would still be a long wait, as the dates have now been pushed to September... so check back this thread in a few months time :thumbsup:

In the meantime, does the Navigation DVD ROM unit controls what comes out on the trip computer screen display?

Was wondering if chucking in a USDM G35 one would display some US specific trip computer screen?

from what I understand of this system, it would change the look of the information coming out. whilst it is all drawn from the same source it is the programmimg of the DVD rom that determines what info you see.

Does that make it worthwhile sourcing a G35 DVD-ROM unit? What are the differences?

no it does not. if all you want is the info in english - go for it. bear in mind there are 8 different boxes that go in these cars. if you know which one you have - try. bear in mind that they (USDM) are a DIFFERENT car than what you haev so you will lose a few features - TV being one of them.

rianto,

not worth your while. it will affect EVERYTHING on yours.

nope. I'm looking at fixing the radio display though so it works correctly. forget trying a USDM radio - thats different too.

Hi Chris

Do you know how to change the radio frequency for the "traffic" preset station? looks like )))))

Cheers

Andy

PS. I know I still have a job to do for you. I will be able to do it soon

Hey Guys,

I am new to the forum, I am Australian but living in Singapore.

I am on the verge of buying a V36 up here there are about 10 on the road already and have been trying hard to figure out this software problem, lots of searching the net lead me to this graet forum.

Can I just confirm that the conversion will work on the V36?

Cheers

Final verdict is not for me to say but looking at how V36 screen is different to V35, I would likely be confident to say it won't work...

unless the company do another version for V36...

So in Singapore there was no infiniti dealership network? And the Nissan there didn't officially import a local version of this car?

Infinti does not exisit in SE Asia at all and you are correct, lots of Nissans on the road but no Skylines as Nissan did not bring it in.They bring in the 350Z Fairlady and possibly the GTR R35. Not great if you want a G37.

how can they restrict the use of a dvd upgrading firmware..unless they make it so you have to hook up some a specialised piece of hardware for it to work

dunno. I can't see that happening myself. probably why they are hesitant to let the code loose.

I know that with the earlier VDO/Blau nav discs you could copy them as many times as you liked. the later ones wont copy with out special software and that is only a torrent away anyway.

I exhausted most of my japanese options on this. I have yet to apply a consult 3 to one of these cars (and for the $9k ask I probably wont for a fair while.) yet. if I can convince a dealer here in brisbane to let me connect a car to theirs then I'll have a bit of a play. the aftermarket ones will not access teh earlier J2534 cars but it will access the later CAN based ones. that was a $7600 ask btw.

I have mules here so when I free up I'm going to grab one.

      Mind if I ask what brand was that alternator? Not to take a stab at the brand, but just curious, as I had voltage drop issues too, but seemed to have stabalised after i changed battery.

      That shoots down the suggestion they are a similar price to a 5yr older Q50 RS.  if you pay that price for a 2016 RS you would have rocks in your head.

      Auto Electrician Workshop Recommendation for Reverse Camera Not Working CKV36 (SYD or WOL)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?

      Auto Electrician Workshop Recommendation for Reverse Camera Not Working CKV36 (SYD or WOL)

      By JoVo · Posted

      Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.

      to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it
