Like the title says, does anyone on here own/owned an R34 with the pop up screen on the dash where the 3 center gauges or fixed mfd goes in the GTT and GTR? This one;

post-53546-1264052906_thumb.jpg

How does it turn on? Is there like an on/off switch? Is it wired into the ignition or Do you need the factory head unit to activate it? (make it pop up and turn on)

Does anyone know how the get the signal to the screen? RCA plugs ect.

Does the screen work similar to the fixed GTR screen as far as wiring work? I've found heaps of infor on here about the GTR screens but very little about the units I'm talking about.

I'm looking at doing a conversion in my car and hooking up a car pc to it. If anyone here had done this I'd love to hear from them or anyone in the Newcastle area that I could actually see working first hand would be fantastic.

Cheers in advance guys.

Not that they work lol

I don't.... it used to pop up or down whenever it felt like it lol

Then my battery died and when you disconnect the battery it kills your head unit/s so now it just stays down.

Lol fair enough then. Can you get the screen fixed?

I don't know :down: I'd like to use it for something, but I haven't looked into it, except to read what info's on here which seemed to be different for each case so no real standard answers on what's possible and what's not.

You at least have a Nissan logo... I just had the blue screen of death haha... you might have more luck than me :P

I just want to be able to play music again... the bottom HU died when the battery was disconnected as well :)

Intersting, is it motorised or spring loaded?

Motorised. Im interested if anyone has any idea of the wiring pins on the back of the tv unit (the big plug and the small 5 pin plug). All i want to know is can you make it open & close without the control unit - just suppling power to those pins.

You can find some of the wiring diagram on here if you search for it long enough using the screen model as the keyword but what you wont find is that you need the unit just to get the screen to work at all.

PM Chris Rogers.. i'm sure he can do something with some of them (from memory) but if he cant then no one can lol

Yeah that's what I ended up having to do. He basically said what I posted before; You can make them raise and lower but not much else.

works off the top navi unit. if that has video output of ANY sort then I can do something with it. thing being everyone is too much of a tightarse to let me try :)

I have a E50 El grand (same system) that has TV/navi on it. there is a big thread on this thing inthe car audio area. I posted up a lot of images on it and gave instructions on how to manually open the thing.

if all you have is the screen then I would suggest ripping it out. you need a data stream to fire it up and set the correct input on it. (it has 3 inputs.) there is no other wqay to make it run.

      Is this pressure plate warped? And do I need a new one?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?

      OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.

      RB gearbox options

      By Butters · Posted

      Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset.

      What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny.

      I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update
