Chook just to check with you when you install back the filter the clean side is facing right on the vertical . Means facing the driver's side? Let me know

My Factory AIR/NAV/TV system has a 'filter' symbol on the screen, shown during diagnostic mode, i assume this will appear when the air flow is slowed by the dirty filters. Sorry forgot to take photos.

whoa... a diagnostic mode for the xanavi system? cool! can it do consult?

There is a section in the STAGEA workshop manual for xanavi and consult system, although would probably display in japanese. Also appears to be a manual diagnostic which unlocks all sorts of hidden menu screens.

The manual diagnostic mode for the air con system is activated by holding down the OFF button after turning on IGN power.

Here are some pics for the curious, these are from an R34, but the instructions are the same for XANAVI and normal AC systems in Stageas.

interesting the a diagram from the workshop manual displays 'air conditioner' in english, whereas mine is in Japanese, maybe it can be changed through CONSULT ??

Some good info... not sure if I'm gonna keep the Xanavi at this stage or not, since I can't read Japanese :D It does look cool though and has lots of functions, and I like the colour climate display.

Looks like I've got a smoker's car; ash tray used a little (but not heavily) and cigar smell; gotta check that filter probably black

did mine today sticker in glove box said done 20 thousand ago but was still filthy all clean now

you inspired me today mike, i got under there and pulled them out. one slight issue for me was the (aftermarket) speaker wire has been threaded through one of the plastic parts making it a bit a pain to get the clearance to pull the filters.

otherwise a pretty easy job.

just out curiosity, does anyone know if it possible to remove the heater cores on S2 stageas without removing the whole dash. it looks fairly accessible through the glove box. i have been putting off replacing my broken heater core in my R33 due the pain of getting to it.

After cleaning mine today, i just thought id dredge up an old thread and let the newbies know, and remind us oldies, that they have an Air conditioner cabin filter in there Stagea that most probably has never been cleaned.

Thanks for the tip, another job for the list............and how was your filter looking after breathing that fine Queensland air since you cleaned it last?

sorry guys i have pics of doing this for an M35 as well. been slack editing my italy pic trips instead of this.

ill post up, piss easy job, and i thought they were actually black till i bought a new one from nissan. turns out they start life white in colour

Just took mine out then and it was a peice of cake!.. If only Holdens were as easy to pull apart as Stagea's.. Filters were filty as, looked like they had never had a clean.. there now soaking in washing detergant hopefully hey come up good as new!

Call me stupid ,but i tried to remove mine,took the glove box out,three screws and two metal clips ,it's still stuck .Discovered somebody was there before me the strip of plastic in front of it had been cut...

ok here are the pics of the filter location for M35 (V35 too i guess)

this is after removing the glovebox, i assume most people can manage that so i didnt photograph it.

The first pic is the location of the filter. pretty easy.

on the left is the clip that opens the door (pic 2) to remove the filter.

when you put the new filter back in, be careful not to squash your filter. there are locator things that stick out of the door. the filter resides in the top half of the gap.

my old filter was squashed and didnt filter too well, it was also black as shit.

the 3rd pic is the part number of the filter. its very much available in australia.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
