Hi All,

I'm new round here, so bear with me while I have my forum training wheels on! I picked up my PNM35 yesterday. VQ35de, AWD. Its magic, love it. I'm not a "turbo" person so the VQ35 was perfect, having said that, I have driven turbo cars before and know the rush! And I'm also impressed with some of the atwkw that some of you guys are getting!

Now back to my question: Has anyone done a series 2 English conversion to the pop up screen thingo/computer? does it run the same system as the s1 M35's? At this stage I'm not looking at converting TV/satnav, as i understand they are pretty expensive.

Thanks to all you guys on here for providing so much quality info on the M35.

after thought: anyone got a proven ciggie smell removal technique that doesn't involve gutting the car or taking up smoking!!?? ;)

Cheers.

Twin turbo setup on a VQ35 and you will destroy all of us atm!!!:)

English Conversion for the S2 is in progress atm!....maybe December this year.....doesn't run the same system as the S1 unfortunately.

Replace the air filter in the aircon and try and leave your window's open as much as possible.

TV conversion is not too expensive and I have a couple of TV tuners left from the last group buy that will work on the M35.

Let me know if you want any more information.

I am still hoping for the language conversion to be available in September but that is my optimistic view.

Cheers

lol... I just knew that the first thing that would be said would be about a TT setup! It would be great fun, have to admit, that big HKS TT kit just looks sexy!

Thanks for the heads up with the screen conversion. I'll be keen. As for TV, we'll have to talk, it'd be nice.

Yeah, the guys did the AC filter for me before delivery (great service, great blokes), and the smell is greatly decreasing. Trying a couple of different things atm, which seem to be working. The Mrs doesn't even notice it, which is great!

Thanks guys.

Hi Alex, I'm new round here too.

I may have been told the wrong info re the english conversion, but I was led to believe it was available already. I'll have to confirm now.

Re your smoke smell, if you don't have leather seats, use Ambi-Pur carpet freshener powder (my missus likes "rainforest") and sprinkle it over everything (seats included) and leave for a few hours before vacuuming. You can leave a bit inside the ash tray/s and open them every now and then for an extra hit.

Gave this tip to the importer of my first Skyline many years ago. He couldn't believe how quickly we removed the smoke smell.

Unfortunately we are having more trouble with ours because the smell seems stuck in the leather seats....

available for series 1's, what year is yours ?

2005, Series 2, different interior, VQ35de motor, and a few little other things here and there i think (such as a different operating system in the trip computer.) Known as a PNM35.

As for smoking smell, thanks for the suggestions. I've given the coffee grounds a crack, and used a ozone generator. it's greatly reduced the smell, when i smelt the coffee out of the car, def smelt like ciggies!I now pretty much can't notice it. I have cloth seats, so don't really have any tips for leather. Maybe you might have to give them some hide feed or something, hydrate the leather a bit before trying to drag the smell out again?

I spoke to the developer last night and he confirmed that software for the PM35 will net be available for a couple of months. sorry guys.. he wishes he could have it read sooner.

Hi folks, I know I have posted about the English conversion before on other threads, but has anyone ended up getting it sussed out ? I've got an 04 pnm35, which I think is actually the series 2 with the chrome stereo fascia..

 

many thanks again for suffering me

Yes it ended up getting done.

I do not know who you would contact now though. I chose not to bother because the way the leaf animates once the conversion is done was not to my liking (I always have the economy screen displaying, so this was important to me).

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
