guys,

looking into this firstly. IF I can get my hands on the consult software for the V35/M35 and IF it will sort out the display (IE english instead of japanese) would there be interest. looking firstly
if it works then I would be doing the cars (as requested) at compliance here in brisbane. THIS WILL NOT FIX THE NAV!

I'm getting 2 or so requests a week for the whole system to be put to english so I may as well do something about it smile.gif

who's interested?

THIS SERVICE IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE!

Use the info in this thread but do not contact me about this!

yep. waiting on a email reply so I can see what I can change on the chassis/body electrics :glare: could well affect the radio and TV but I WILL NOT know until I get a reply.

I know on my van (2006 holden combo) I can specify where it is and change a few things on it . radio settings being one of them. I figure this one may be the same.

Hmmm. I thought this was dead and buried! I am interested in the method that you are trying. With the setup at a local workshop I can change BCM settings on my 2003 but haven't seen any indication of being able to change anything to do with the AV. Not through the consult anyway. Might just be that we have the old or generic Nissan version(we can't do any NATS stuff either).

In response to your question, if it's cheap like under $50 then I would think the consumer would be interested. If it's a major investment then I don't think there would be huge interest simply because it won't give any additional functionality and you get used to navigating the menus without knowing what they say. Others may have a different view.

Hey SKiZO, you didn't happen to see if you could adjust (remove) the "beeps" in the BCM, such as the door open with ignition key in, or the very annoying reverse beeps on the auto model.

At the moment I'm considering removing the speaker all together, but then would loose all the warnings....

Back on topic, I'd be quite suprised if the GUI programming was accessable through CONSULT, but you never know. I noticed that you can get the whole set up from a US G35 on ebay, but then that would be in MPG etc.

I'd be interested Chris, if you were able to crack it.

I'm looking at the USDM offical consult. its not a GUI based thing. (IE not consult 3) I'm waiting on a reply from a few places O/S before I commit to anything. as for Fees- yet to work that side of it out. to me it would be a fee at compliance. don't want to pay it - no probs. estimated cost of the thing is a 4 figure sum that I would amortize across 30-40 cars.

I'll leave it at that for now.

skizo,

wouldnt mind a chat with you when you have time.

Sorry mate it's been a while and I can't remember all the functions you can change. I don't want to give you false hope but I do vaguely remember something about that being in there. I'll be back there in a few weeks and i'll test it out for you. ps. I like the chimes! I forget my lights on and it tells me. I don't like the reverse one though...

The beeps when you lock the car were definitely not in there though :D

Sure Chris, PM me.

Forgot to mention the other day Chris, that there is one more faint glimmer of hope on that front.

When you go into the Diagnostics/Settings menu of the NAV there is one menu in there on mine that is greyed out and if I'm correct it is actually the languages setting. Whether it was actually implemented is another matter. Of course I may be totally wrong, but we need the smelly monkey to tell us what it says.

Oh and is it the same for the rest of you guys? Go into the diagnostics menu(INFO+DISPLAY for 5 seconds at any time) and then the settings screen. Maybe someones is unlocked!

I've done that with the one I have here. noticed the menu you pointed out. this one is greyed out. going to try somehting outside the square. nissan dealership :) still waiting on infiniti to get back (I'll chase them in the morn again.) to me.

theres a few things in diagnostics that point to language but I believe its still software based.

going to look on ebay for a part number to compare what I have vs the 'correct' version.

btw the buttons and screen are just that..

skizo,

the CD's you have - what EXACTLY are they - maps or data?

nice, i'll try it tonight

how do you get out of diagnostics mode?

turn the car off.

bring me a USB stick and I'll drop the service manual on it for you :)

I'll grab a few high res pics of the service screens.

actaully - I'll pull shots off the service manual.

pull the DVD firmware version up on yours - I'll take a few snaps of the one I have here. want to compare notes.

need someone to translate the SERVICE menus on this thing. theres 6 other menus that are not listed in the G35 manual. (CBF looking at the V35 one - too hard to read!)

Japanese to English

There is a ROM disc available in Japan. Nissan part number B8227-C9913 About 10,000YEN.

Not sure how deep the conversion goes may only be for the Sat Nav and not the menus or vice versa.

I strongly suspect it will only work on the sat nav so have not been in a hurry to go through the hassle and cost of getting one. I.E. tell you in english where in Tokyo bay you are driving not Aussie maps etc.

But if anyone else wants to give it a whirl there's the number.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
