Hey guys, just wondering how to keep the TV/GPS screen on S1 stag active while driving. When I first got the car with standard stereo etc it i could see snow when driving, now that I have got a headunit installed and running visual through AV2 it cuts out as soon as I put it in gear. Even when I try to view what I was seeing before the install.

Is there a way around this? I expect there is as I know some people out there are running GPS through this screen. Maybe when they were installing the headunit they did something, or is it just s setting or something?

I've tried doing a search but after several hours of reading I still havn't found what I'm after.

Thanks for your help guys :D

depends on the setup, but from my expirience, there is a wire connected to either the handbrake or gearbox, when the hand brake is on or the gearbox is in gear the circuit is completed and the tv shuts down, you will have to disconnect this wire.

all depense what you have. but if you pull out the screen it should have a 'to handbrake' or sumthing wire... unless its stock then mayb they might be a little more safe haha. but its just a matter of grounding that wire.

hey guys not to be a damper but be carefull what you post as it is Illegal and im sure a mod will delete your comments ban or warn ya's in some form. keep it private.

You need a special harness that plugs into the back of your screen, looks like this:

It is not as simple as a handbrake switch, its a very complicated little harness.

Most/all japanese install them as soon as they leave the dealer, so look for a small button or black box, as in pic. Might have been 'touched' when your stereo was installed.

If you have no luck, i have a spare one available, pm me.

Yeah cheers chook, just the sort of info I was after. I have some wiring and stuff that was removed, will have a look to see if there is something there that resembles the unit you posted. I'll also ask the installer if he touched/saw something as well.

Anybody know where you can get one of these boxes? Sorry Chook i cant PM ya as im new :)

cheers

No idea, I can't remember the branding on mine.

I can however remember atleast part of what was written on it "......so you don't miss your favorite show when you're behind the wheel" Aren't the Japanese so safety consous

other than in Japan, or possibly a Japan Yahoo site such as http://www.importmonster.com.au , 2nd hand ones are cheap there, or try Chris Rogers, part # datasystem NTV142,

These are only for the factory xanavi screens, not for aftermarket.

I've ordered the "Data Systems / TV-KIT NTV142 / SUTEJIA W # C34/H9.8 ~ H13.10" through nengun on the japan yahoo auctions - next question... how hard is it to install with instructions in japanese??

for my dvd player handbreak wire is just earthed.

for an aftermarket headunit, that's all it'll be. run it to a switch so that you can prove to cops that it's legal though :P for the standard xanavi unit though, you'll need the harness like Chook said.

plug and go. I sell a few of them myself.

getting arounf that unit is best done with a bypass. there's too many wires to fiddle with otherwise.

Plug and go? Hope its as easy as it sounds...Lets hope its nothing like the windows plug and prey...

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
