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

Also, I have a Japanese version of War And Peace I was hoping you could translate for me?

So, the cat is out of the bag thanks to the email from Prestige .... $199 sounds inbloodysane ....unless I am missing something here .... aren't the only screens that will be useful the fuel economy (which Andy seems to have buggered up with egging on from others re: changing from the current useful measure of km/l to the completely useless l/100km - I want to know if I put in 30L how far I will get - not have to work out converting from l/100km and back again) and the servicing distance screens? This doesn't seem like anything close to $199 of value to be able to read in English when the numbers are all we are really keen on anyhow ....

So, are there other screens that we currently cannot read that actually would be useful in English?

Why you haven't posted detailed screenshots of all of these screens yet is beyond me .... we have only been waiting around 6,000 years ....

Sorry to sound so negative, but it all seems a bit silly to me - timeframe, cost and usability.

+1 I was waiting for someone to say something about not having pictures posted up instead of a dancing banana. No offence but it was the least you could do Andy to post up some pics of your success.

Not sure how much interest Prestige will get with $199 asking price though. I'd pay an extra $200 and have more fun with the Sprint Booster! :P:D:):banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:

must say I agree, $199 seems bit steep for something that most of us have gotten used to not even bothering to use in the first place.

Having said that, pics would help promote the product and whether its going to be of any use at all.

Changing the measurement for the Fuel, still not quite sure why the masses went that direction..

Think I'd rather put the cash into something to make the headunit work perhaps, by which I mean the radio or install another headunit..

its what like $600 just for the parts to put another headunit in if you wish to keep use of the steering wheel controls?

mate gave me one of those FM transmitters for my ipod to solve the prob = no go, i didnt realise you cant set them to *any* frequency

so theyre useless in our cars as well ...

still, back on topic, pics or ban :P

My guess is that part of the $199 is going towards a persons effort involved in installing the software. e.g., they are not just going to send you a dvd. this is purely a guess and would make sense as its the only way to stop piracy.

I would wait for more details on the solution before dissing the price.

yeah yeah yeah......blah blah. I have had all this and more over the last 2 years of getting this finalised. Be patient.

Pictures are coming. I have a full time business to run plus a family so they will be up soon. Probably tonight.

The change of L/100km has no effect on working out how far to go on your tank. That is a separate read out below the L/100km. (maybe this is not clear as it is in Japanese)

I understand that Prestige have sent out an email say it can be done. All installs will be done by the state based appointed installer. These installs can not commence till around the 10th December. I will post the contact details for each installer over the next 2 days.

I am working on a group buy for the SAU members but I will give you some more details in the next few days.

I certailnly understand the comments that you don't need the english translation now as you are used to it, that is your call and I have no problem what you decide to do.

Cheers

Farkin' hell guys.

Any reason why you choose to whine, bitch and moan so much?

Don't like the economy change? Don't get the translation.

Go and blow your $200 on something that does nothing like a pop charger....

EDIT: forgot to mention, I can totally see how frustrated you have been with all this waiting "Nightcrawler"... what with all those months of V35 ownership.

God work Andy and when I get a V35... this is the one of the first things to be changed!

Rather hoping that there might be a solution for a V36 by then though... :P

As for negativity being experienced from some, remember you can never please everyone all of the time.

If you think it is expensive or doesn't do what you want, don't buy it...

If there is something else you can put $200 towards, do that instead.

Hi Andy, you didn't really answer my question - are there any further useful screens that I do not know about - I hope there are, as that would be cool.

I applaud your efforts to get this off the ground so far.

Stephen there is light at the end of the tunnel. The developer has told me that now he has finished this project the 2004 models are now in his sights. He is hopeful that the development time is wayyyyyyy shorter than this first version.

AND hurry up and get your self a V35/6......... LOL

This is a hard question to answer as I don't know what you have worked out. But I can say that there are no new screens that now function because they are in English. They all still work in the same way as they did before but it is much easier to get the most from them as you don't have to remember every line of each menu.

The FM, VICS, Navigation & ETC still do nothing in Australia as we do not have compatible systems in Australia.

I am about to post some pics and explanation.

Cheers

Andy

      There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)

      What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).

      Custom titanium intake

      By Sleepergm · Posted

      No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here.

      I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
