Have you noticed any differences in features/functionality between the US manual and the imports?

Buttons are mirrored and some have different functions, I will post a pic later with my translation.

"Carwings" is only for japanese models.

Side camera is I think only japanese again.

DVD does not play region 4 (AUS), have to try all region I guess.

FM radio does not cover needed frequencies (I guess that is common for all models).

Understands English / Russian / Japanese names in songs with no issues on my mp3.

Yes - a great find!

Very keen to hear some solutions to fix the TV. Best thing I've thought of so far is getting an Auto Elec to wire in a tiny set top box and plug it into the AV jacks. Would have to use it's remote/controls though, but then again, I don't expect to watch much TV. Unsure how to attach an aerial for this or how to hook into the stock one.

Still trying to pair my phone too...

Mine has an aftermarket Panasonic Digital TV installed, which uses the AV adapter...

I'm guessing i can just use this to tap in and install an Aussie Digital TV (trying to find the equivilant panasonic unit here, so i dont' have to re-wire.)

will let you know how it goes!

Would like more info on the seating position memory buttons on the driver's door, could not find them on the US version...

And has anyone played with the VDC button?? Did it completely remove the safety features of did they they just turn back on as soon as the slip light came on???

For position memories (seat and side mirrors), vehicle must be in Park, parking brake is not essential. Press the Set button momentarily then press and hold the desired memory position until the light extinguishes itself. To recall, under the same conditions, press the desired button momentarily.

I play with VDC quite often. :) It switches off traction control and remains off until the car is stopped and started again.

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
