This has probably been covered before, but could not find in the FAQ. What is the best solution for converting jap buttons to english. is there a replacement kit available? if so from where and how much? and pics?

Ebay, you can get stickers but it looks a bit average. Real buttons from the US on ebay as well (maybe).

Get your guy who is doing your sat nav and audio to do it. It's a big job to do by it's self. Better getting it all done in one go.

Hi Jon, it will work just perfect. as long as it has factory Navi/TV screen unit (not aftermarket!).

Ring me in the morning to discuss day & time - my phone # in my sig below. Appreciate not ringing at night please, gotta put the bub to sleep.

no problem, thanks heaps... ill buzz you tomorrow morning to discuss....... whats that thing thats next to the dvd player in the glove box? It looks like

some sort of card reader?

First SA install now complete and the first one I installed I had to remove the player and clean the laser in the head to get it to read the disks. So if anyone wants an install in adelaide PM me or check out andys signature for my number thanks Brad

brad,

can you send me an email with your full details please. I have a web page set up with a blank spot for SA and wish to make it a live page.

You can also vouch that it isn't a simple job like some people think it is.

No problem nigel the whole process took about 35 mins and what amazed me was the fact that while in contact with our russian friends they

could tell where my car was from russia does this mean that if my car gets stolen and i give them the key on the reciept they can track were the car is

Regards Dave

unfortunately no :rant:

the key only contains location at the time of install

it was meant for copy protection , not for gps tracking

so there's no russian mob/bodyguard following your car as u drive around . conversion price don't include secret service :-)

amen! thats part of the reason I'm getting the cars and yanking boxes , doing them and then putting them back. I had one here over the weekend with a totally dead laser.

GPS co'ords are coded into the software licence. stops us pirating and also keeps things in our respective areas.

Got mine done on Sunday by Nigel (Champion).

Sorry about my messy wires behined the gove box and my less then cooperative DVD Rom and my lame GPS and that it was a Sunday afternoon :(

HAPPY :D

Dam puts me off getting a reversing camera :)

To all the NSW people.

Andy is OS in the US for a week or so. In saying that I will be covering for him for the language conversions until he gets back so if you want to book in be sure to PM me.

cheers

But the two sips of that coke you bought for me made up for the hassle, it was better we did it on Sunday because if it was a week day the other distractions would of made it painful so no big deal.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
