Hi Timmmay, Yep, Its still got the Navi system in it. Of course, its all in Japanese, so not much good for here unless I can get the right software etc. It would be nice to know if anyone has had any experience in either flashing or firmware upgrading, adapting an existing system to fit etc. Its got a TV tuner too, which Is also in the same boat. Cos its got the 6"screen, I reckon I could update the head unit to one of the new DVD players, send the output to the screen and fit up a Ipod adaptor to run the Ipod Video. Should be trick then!

That blue one looks good. I was interested in that too, with the leather and woodgrain. If its in a similar condition to mine, it will be a damn good pickup. :P

Saw Marc today, he should be right for Saturday. If we can get Tee along it should be great. Apparently there is another Silver Series 2 in town, so Marc is trying to get in touch.

Looking forward to posting some great pics for everyone.

Spotted PranK's Stagea at Unique Autosports in Castle Hill - our prez is leaving the ranks of the Stagea faithful and the car is up for sale...

Havn't seen Prank around for a while now. I wonder what is making him sell :P

mmm, no1 in Adelaide knows what a damn Stagea is, so, I'll never be spotted. lol

but then again I keep the beast locked up & she doesnt see any sunshine, so that doesnt help.....

mind you, she gets HEAPs of looks when out & about.. ie you can see em thinking wtf is THAT?

i keep getting g'd up at servos by the attendants. they ask if it's the new volvo or audi. they get a bit surprised when i say it's a nissan. i don't let them know though, i just say it's a nissan stationwagon. the intercooler on the front is enough to keep them thinking

Spotted white stagea on springvale road, guy was from kamikaze and i chatted with him. They are trying to get vic compo for them

Also, spotted one in Bayswater bursons carpark (he parked next to me). I direct him to the forum.

These buggers are all over the joint now!

:(

We had a get together yesterday in Canberra. We had Terminal's very nice RS4v, Marc2's hot looking Series 2, with 18's and a full body kit, and my Rs4 Dayz edition, with the full body kit and carbon fibre kit. Here is a pic. Terminal will be posting some soon too. :(

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
