and how do we do that? Do the el cheapo laser cleaner disks from bargain shops do the trick?

If you have a map disc, keep it in the unit and make sure it reads it.

If you don't have a map disc, see if you can get a copy.

All the units I have seen with a map installed in the DVD rom were an easy conversion. The laser seems to get dirtier with no disc installed.

Cheers

He I too had mine upgraded to english and it rocks. Thanks andy and everyone for this and especially Rianto.. Great instal

Roll on aus maps now.

:down:

Hey guys had my conversion done last night by Andy. Works great. Only downside is I have seen Andy's car and I will now spend more money on mine!!! Great ride you got there. Very neat.

Thanks again.

A note to those that had their cars done in sydney by nagoya motors (or by revolution electronics) and had a local DVD video player fitted. if you CANNOT find your DVD ROM ANYWHERE in the car there is a VERY good chance it has been stripped to a bare board and shoved under the stock spot and between the glovebox.

IF YOU WISH TO UPDATE YOUR LANGUAGE SOFTWARE YOU CANNOT DO IT !!!!!!

90% of the OEM unit is MISSING! so you guys are stuck UNLESS you replace it with a used item.

I have a car here now from NSW with this EXACT issue. I am going to try other means of updating this one but I see it as a no go. the progam needs to reside in two spots : ON the DVD reader board and also on the main board.

swapping bits into the system from another stripped unit will result in a unit that will reboot every 5 minutes and ask for the jap language disc.

just a word of warning..

further point now that I look closer at this board:

the GPS gyro is also gone. so theres NO WAY to program this thing.

looks like I pass on this one.

(time for me to start my integration into this box by the look of this one.)

Been reading through this quite substantial thread.....

Just want to make sure that I've got my facts straight.

I've just got my V35. It's a 2005 S2 Premium Coupe.

My understanding is that as of today, the english conversion software patch is not yet available for the S2.

But. All being well it will be available from some kind outfit in Russia in the future.

Did I get it right?

Almost, It should be ready for the V35 S2 around the middle of this year.

It will be available for the people listed in my signature.

Excellent news!

I shall look forwards to the arrival announcement.

Any ballpark on what investment mightl be required as yet ?

Cheers.

Hey guys. I have an 04 primera p12 wagon. It has the jap navigation screen with all the stuff in japanese. Anyway you guys have a disc i can buy to convert mine to english?

Hi Jason

Sorry, whilst it looks similar the system is different and our conversion system will not work on your car.

Cheers

Andy

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
