I think u read me wrong - i dont have a problem with cruising responsibly. Unfortunately in this state cops often hassle people that are NOT doing anything wrong!

FTR: I went to ONE mccr event and NEVER went back, this was at least a year ago.

Oh yeah my main point is: whats to stop those "dikheads" from turning up - once it is posted for all to see :confused:

Considering that everything is coming together nicely now, I'll be 95% chance of being there.

Sounds like this'll be an absolute hoot and a good first cruise for the year. Just hope that I'll have enough petrol to get me around for the cruise :goddam:

Sounds alright to me.  Guess it'll depend on where we meet/cruise to.

Hey guys,

I'm new to this but am definetly interested in coming on down... So i figured that it is on the 10th at 9pm for 9:30 leave, but where are we going exactly? I just hope i don't have to work that night :eek:

well this is wats been posted on the 200sx and nissan silvia forums so i think it prett much sums it up..

Ok next Friday which will be the 10th of January 2003 we will be holding a

Jap Car Cruise...

Basically for pretty much Jap cars only. YES WE ARE BEING BIAS! :) This is being organised through SAU (Skylines Australia but is an unnoficial event.

The meeting point is the ALBERT PARK PIT STOPS @ 9:00PM

We will be departing at 9:30pm sharp!

The cruise will head down along beach road past the elwood beach where most

likely we will stop for photos or a break etc..

Then back again along beach road heading down towards Frankston way..

We will be taking the Arthurs Seat route..

Nice Twistie Roads and scenery :cool:

Please note maps for the cruise will be handed out on the night at the

First meeting point.

More than likey the Cruise will be covered by a photographer ..

Our very own Jun Sawa - Mr Hot4s Photographer Yayyyyy!!!

If you have a CB please bring it along as a way of communication.

Please be aware that by attending this cruise .. you take complete responsibilty for ur own actions and driving.!

um, how about just a skyline cruise. no offence but i dont really give too much of a shit about the other people as I never chat on those boards, and would prefer just to meet SAU people...

re chairlift..... the fat bastard wasnt me.. i went for a drive to flinders instead of arthurs seat.

wow...this is turning out to be pretty big, and my first cruise (thanks for the lift inark :))! yeehaa grandma!

so is this a strictly Skyline affair, or is it Jap car cruise? Cos i have a mate with a 02 Sti that might wanna come.

    • FWIW a lot of the local owners that do a big build tend to have cars that are perpetually broken. 
    • I just got this system but haven’t installed yet I got a Moroso sealed box (defect reasons) which will be set up same as their pic The quality is high grade, the correspondence I had with the owner (former head designer for Rockford Fosgate) was unbelievable, guiding me with what I needed. Even told me not to buy some things as it could be sorted in a different way at his loss. Just a bit of a bite with the exchange rate and don’t purchase gear in 1 hit that goes over $1,000 au, lol I forgot!  
    • Thanks mate for that reply. Very helpful.    it’s a 2022 400R so would most likely lose those features as you say.     I did a quick compare of a rv37 nav and heading for sale in Japan to q50 model. I’ll pop pics below. Seems  Japan spec head into top, nav unit second below it   below pic Q50 aud delivered     differences seem to be Aus delivered has a different plug top left hand side of head unit- not sure what and where it goes.   and nav unit Japanese tv37 had an extra plug put    Again I’m really not sure what each of these differences mean!       the actual plugs on a v37 and q50 screens look identical on both screens… pics below for comparing. (One screen was is a us delivered one) but should be same gps signals etc as Australia.    If it were as simple as swapping a nav unit from q50 aud delivered im interested -just want to figure out what the missing plug is for before spending big $ on a second hand part for it to not work, and I guess with the head unit, if the band expander does the job (I got a 20mHz so should get the range I’m after) so should narrow my issue down to nav unit only.  I’d love to know what the extra cable on rv37 does and if I eliminate that part what it’ll do to the setup,    and also, if I can figure out what that head unit plug difference is, what does that cable do and where does it got can it be altered or re-plugged?! Excuse my ignorance what is ACP/AA, what does that stand for? (Apple car play? Android air play)? so If I swapped head units to save using a band expander, I’d likely lose those better features to have an oem Unit operational. Better to use a band expander and retain AirPlay options and newer version of head unit     provably best to band expand it, and focus on the nav unit. th isn’t  a big deal/ would be cool to have it working  from what I can tel we use a PAL Signal and Japan uses a NTSC signal  I don’t know if there’s a co better or if the screen only reads NTSC, or if it’s the tv module that needs replacing… no big deal don’t need it but more of a curiosity thing on that!   Thanks for the info re tyre sensors, helpful and great to know.  I was reading the online manual off Japan website and it seemed to make it sound more confusing than it is  I guess a rim replacement would require the sensors to be moved to a new rim to carry that option over?!     Thanks for the info regarding diagnostic mode. I appreciate your help mate. Trying to brainstorm here to find a solution to get as much gadgets as I can working! I plan to get my local Nissan tech to have a look too who used to be at an Infiniti dealer back in the day to see if any thing they have or idea can find a soliton. But hoping anyone here has gone down the same route to make life easier!!   i guess identifying the cable/plug differences and what they do would be a great way of finding out if the units are transferable    thanks again 
    • No idea about the remote start part. If the V37 nav is anything like other Nissan JDM vehicles, you can't get the factory Japanese nav working in australia, a card from a different car almost certainly won't work, those cards are usually matched to the serial number of the DCU.  You could be possibly swap out the components from a AuDM Q50 to get it working, but if this is a new model (2021+) 400R, then you will lose the newer features like ACP/AA.  That said, if you have ACP/AA, just use google maps.. I assume a band expander would be required to get the local radio stations, but don't forget the Japanese FM band is narrower than ours, so you still might not be able to receive all Australian stations. I can't see any reason the tyre pressure sensors won't work here, there is the sensor unit inside the rim and the receiver nearby in the wheel well.  I have never had to change the batteries on my 2015 Q50, so I assume they last quite a while.  A straight battery change shouldn't need them to be re-registered as they are the same unit, that should only be required if you replace a sensor with a new one.   Word of warning, if you ever go into the 'secret' diagnostics mode on the main screen, DO NOT EVER do a 'reset' in this menu, it will erase all of your model specific data in the DCU and you will need a trip to a dealer to re-program it all, which would be particularly painful being an import.  This applies to the AuDM Q50 too.
    • There is a known issue with the mix door motor on the Q50 which causes these symptoms, not sure if it is common on the Y51 though.
