Will this work with our japanese V36's?

Yes, I believe there is a cable that will make the iPod family work with the car. It is the proprietary cable.

Note - the iPhone only just came out in the US when my car was made (2007), so from what I understand compatibly with the iPhone is questionable. I remember reading on some G35 driver forum that it plays the music but doesn't charge is iPhone 3G because it's missing some chip, or something like that.

Obviously it'll work with the R/W/Y cable, but I'm guessing you won't be able to control the music through the player this way.

I'd love to install a little set top box into the AUX and wire it up to 12V... TV in the car.

i jsut had a look at the stero connector in the car, and nope doesn't seem like it will work. the US cable is 16 pin and the jap one has different shape and the nubmer of pins.

guess we're stuck on the ipod AV cable then, which means no console controlling or integration and changing songs will ahve to be via the ipod only.

Additionally the AV cable doesn't charge an ipod

i'm hesitant to get the AUX (3 input) cable as i heard it doesn't charge the ipod/iphone? correct me if i'm wrong

and the AUX wont play video if the car is in motion.....is that correct?

No it doesnt charge the iphone. I have to unplug the iphone and connect it up with another lead that goes into socket to the left of the aux inputs for charging (its a bit of a pain)

It doesnt play video when in motion, but I know that can be disabled.

I just use an AV to 3mm plug, it just means you have to select songs manually at the ipod but if your songs are decent you just leave it on shuffle :D

Just wondering...

If you had a Jailbroken iTouch or iPhone with displayout or some other dispay mirror tool installed, could you use these 3 plugs in the arm rest with an apple AV composite output cable, to mirror the apple device on the nav screen using the AV source? If so, then you could get one of the AV cables with the built in USB charger to give a charging solution as well.

Any owners out there find a plug that will charge and play music for an i phone yet?

I seem to cover this topic every week or so on the phone. its not possible to do and control the unit off the radio.

I can sell you a charge lead with audio and video out but thats it.

    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
    • Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.
    • Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
