Yep. The board crashed (due to a failed RAID controller) and Christian's had to rebuild his database. At first I thought I got kicked out for saying something wrong considering I only just registered the day before! After reading the sticky about the outage, I figured I had to re-register and we're back to normal now, more or less.

rianto has it. and yes they are NOT cheap. not to mention theres still a lot of custom electronics to maintain teh extra options.

Given the composite video input that one can tap into with the V35's, for those who are only concerned with the GPS, I'm thinking one could use the Garmin GVN53 interface as a cheaper alternative. Of course, that would only be an ideal solution for those who don't care much for the stereo and translations. A bit hard for me to tell without a V36 (which won't be until March/April for me) but that's my guess for now. What's your take on this?

up to you. the video in on a 35 has limitations. picture looks a LOT better with RGB applied to it.

I use the GVN53 when I do the 35s. though I use a slightly different version.

if you buy a CKV36 then the full swap is the BEST way to tackle it.

if you read the description they are only installing TV tuner to allow viewing of UK TV Channels. Nothing in the navigation or menus are converted/translated.

its exactly the same to what Chris has been doing, adding an Australian compatible TV tuner.

I think he's still pretty busy... he just finished mine today... I got reverse camera now, although it doesn't tell me 100% whether I'm gonna hit something or not but at least it's helpful to see what's behind me with 150 degree wide angle view....

hm, chris the way you mounted the camera so low, it's very strategic when reversing against a bunch of chics in mini skirts... LOL

    • Small analogue delay circuit with a relay. Just need a trigger, say, fuel pump running for more than 5s or so? Or, you could go full mental and write a sketch for an Arduino.
    • I don't know, honestly. Easier to just use a CAN wideband with the Haltech so you can get the ECU to control the wideband in the manner described.
    • Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next.
