Hi all.


I've already posted in GTROC UK forum. But thought I'd post here aswell.


I'm having problems with a R34 GTR MFD.

The MFD has been Nismo upgraded.

Before the upgrade, the LCD was working fine. After installing the upgrade kit, the LCD refused to display. I fiddled around, left with no choice and finally decided to flick the 3 switches on the lower circuit board and finally, the display comes on. However... it appears to be inverted. Much like a mirror image or looking directly at a "heads-up-display".


I've spent days reading up the forum and google-ing and trying. Direct replacing it would be easy but that's not an option for now.


The LCD panel is a Toshiba TFD58W30MM. I've gone as far as trying to understanding how LCD works. I read somewhere that LCD works by scanning Left to Right, Up and Down. Downloaded the spec sheet for the LCD panel, blocked off Left to Right pin. The furthest I got to, was that the display was finally right, BUT 180 degrees rotated.


I've also tried calling up LCD repair shops but it seems that they don't actually repair them... they merely replace them.


I understand someone in this forum had the same issue but problem solved by replacing a new panel.


Anyone with LCD panel experience can shed some light here?


I'm in Singapore btw.


Cheers.

This is mine.

This should help you with the issue you are having. It's hard settings and this is the unit that is meant to be in there.

Hi Chris,

Great work you have there mate!

I just did a quick browse through the link you've attached.

I'm not sure if i'm going to understand enough to make things work but nonetheless, i cannot thank you enough for the great help.

I'll be trying till the day i blow it up.

Cheers mate!

    • To be determined, Luke, to be determined. 馃榿 Definitely the car
    • It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair
    • The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It鈥檒l be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol
    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
