thats not bad actually. if you are game pop the deck out of that thing and rip the H'Drive out. it is a 2.5" item and it is locked. HDD tools will unlock it. dump it and play. looking at what you ahve done you are half way to translating this thing. the one I have here has R35 GTR on it and I have a V36 one as well (with a dead drive as I later found out!). so are you game?

[loz-tuned]

hmmm... sounds like it could be a plan... I was part of the xbox-linux team and have tinkered with reprogramming the iphone to use android, so if it's software i could definitely have a play around..

But i assume all the graphics / language and operating system files would be built in a proprietary format? (are they located on the HDD? If so what OS does the setup run?)

from what I can see most of it is on the drive. there is a bootloader in the chassis but thats it from what I can tell.

I'd hit it with a hex editor. its written in posix.

Thanks. I'm looking at importing a near new 370GT sedan. I'll keep this as a reference very good. Does anyone know how aligned this is with the 370Z?

Hey guys, I have purchased the whole USDM setup from Canada, for the English translation. Need to find someone that knows about these cars so I can get it put in. Any help with someone that can fit the system in Syd would be a great help.

Also Loz if you still have the stock wheels and those springs/Suspension parts lying around, are you keen to sell them. As you can see from my Pic I am in need of a little lowering.

I hope you got all of the wiring with it. the jdm is quite different.

Hey Chris

I was hoping that maybe you could be the one to help me out with the fitment and getting the whole setup running. I actual bought a whole dash cut and got it shipped. even came with the little infiniti clock.

Anyway let me know if you are willing to give it a go. I will be drinving to Bris in the holidays (Nov/Dec) to see family. If you would like to give it a go I can drop it at you shop and leave it there for a week or so.

Get back to me

Jake
