Spong, belay that! It looks like it's a standard DVD-ROM data disk. ImgBurn should do the trick with a dual layer DVD.

Yes, ImgBurn is what I used. I used a DVD+R DL and all was fine in my case. Some drives (especially older ones) may have difficulty with recordable media so no guarantees it will work in every actual V35/M35.

Win4ever, I'm in Australia. Happy to help - I assume we're not breaking copyright by copying the DVD so... I'll give it a crack and let you know the cost of media + postage. If it's trivial I wont worry about it.

Spong, you mentioned that you've made a copy of yours which I resume is a similar format & media. Any tricks? What software did you use to rip and re-burn?

Hey Stuart, just picked my car up today. As I know yours is probably the closest identical "twin" to mine (as they are just manufactured 1 month apart from each other), I thought I'll check something with you.

Does your car have this japanese girl that talks to you everytime you start the car? Mine will have her saying something after a while everytime I start the car (i think it's usually after I engage a gear). Just keen to know if this is normal.

Also, i've PM you with regards to the sat nav DVD. Cheers!

She usually only talks to you IF there is something wrong. Is there any message on the screen?

Nope.... I don't think there's anything on the screen! :thumbsup:

The only thing I picked up so far is that I don't have the sat nav DVD in the drive. Could that be a reason?

That's a relief! I don't hear any messages, but I know she's there (I push the "voice" button and she speaks). So, I think that's a good thing :ninja:

Well, I think for me, mystery is solved as it's definitely something 2 do with the ETC card reader as if I press a button on the reader, the girl will repeat exactly what she said everytime I start the car. Shall try to get someone to remove that reader. :P

    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
    • I would like more noise related info for my truly uneducated guess  Does it do it at idle or when revving, clutch engaged, and disengaged? Does it only do it when the car is moving? I've heard "similar" noises from a clutch pack that left the chat room, and CV joints that have chewed themselves out But as Matt said, how's the yokes, tailshaft and centre bearing going after their last little issue Fingers crossed it is something simple  Weird noises make me cringe 
    • One other question, is there a chance that changing the idle speed can lead you down a rabbit hole and is the reason the tuner didn't touch it? Reason I ask is because if that's the reason the tuner avoided it then I probably shouldn't be touching it lol.
