Hey,

I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to get an english sticker kit to maybe replace the Jap symbols on the nav buttons?

I know that there was one made for the Toyota Soarer Nav...

Maybe could get something from the Infiniti G35....

Just thoughts.

Probably a stupid idea.

give me a high res photo showing the letters clearly on the buttons and I can translate it for you, then you could get them made up

I agree, top idea!! I was thinking the same myself but im laking in mates who are fluent in japanese.... :thumbsup:

I would have settled with the stick on label maker option.

As for hi-res image ill let you know tomorrow when i find out if im getting a V35 :P

used the photo chris posted

from left to right...

top row:

button 1: Guide

button 2: 2 Screen (Split Screen?)

button 3: Bird View (Bird's Eye View?)

button 4: Vehicle Information

button 5: Map

button 6: Menu

bottom row:

button 1: Image Quality

button 2: TV :)

button 3: Detail (Zoom In?)

button 4: Wide Area (Zoom Out?)

button 5: Back

Dunno what it says on the joystick, I can't see it properly

no, yours was actually a translation, that other thread was just "this is what it seems like the buttons do"

put them together to give us the best of both worlds!

now.. let's find the person who makes the soarer sticker kit and get them workign for us..

they're americans... eeeewwww

here;s an aussie company.. don't know if they make them though:

http://shop.importdriver.com.au/store/prod...em217.inetstore

Yeah that's what i'm on about.

Let's hit them up to do a set for the V35.

I'll email them today and find out who to talk to.

i've contacted a guy on eBay who also sells the soarer ones and he says he is an agent for "brave auto japan" and they make the soarer stickers

i have asked him if they make V35 ones and waiting to hear a reply

will keep everyone updated

K just got a reply back from Luke at driveandview.com - UK based company.

"Damien,

I can manufacture the stickers as I have a 350 Skyline head unit screen in stock but the price would be more than the Soarer stickers due to less interest.

I estimate the price to be 20 pounds per kit? Lead time approximately 5 weeks.

Regards

Luke Gomer

What you guys think? About $45 bucks AUD.

Want to get some numbers together so we can let him know how many to make?

Cheers,

Damien

i'm keen also as stated..

let me get a further quote from this guy selling them on eBay who imports them from japan

also, we need to decide on a definate word for each button as most can only fit a small amount on them

i'm thinking..

top row:

1 - nav

2 - split

3 - view

4 - info

5 - map

6 - menu

bottom row:

1 - image

2 - tv (or nothing?)

3 - zoom in OR zoom +

4 - zoom out OR zoom -

5 - back

any thoughts or changes?

cheers,

Warren

Yep sounds good to me.

Why not take a look at the infiniti g35 buttons to see whats written on them. Would the translation be the same from Jap to English as the infiniti?

    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
