Is Nigel still the software translation guy for WA? I emailed him but no response as yet..

Yes if you click on the link in my signature it will have his phone number

This thread really needs to be part of the FAQ of who can perform the conversions and an update on the progress of software translation for V35 series 2 and V36.

**Sorry guys just read my post again and it may have come across rude, its a Friday afternoon :)

Just had my Xanavi translated to english today, thanks to Chris & Simon (& of course the Russians).

The unit wouldn't load from the disc at first but after a drive across a couple of suburbs it mysteriously shook itself into action. The disc was still in so the bumping around probably got the laser working.

The result is pretty good; much easier to use now.

However, what's interesting is that not all info is available after the translation. The reason I know this is that prior to the upgrade, I used to get a warning everytime it powered up that I had an airbag problem. See pic.

I could drill down (from memory thru the maintenance screen) and turn up more info. See other pic.

None of this shows up anymore. I was hoping to see what Nissan thought of my little problem (in English), but nevermind.

So it looks like only the main information made it thru the translation process.

Thanks again guys.

Chris: I have a 2005 V35 series 2 and I wanted to know the time line of English converison kit for my car.

Do you know when this may happen?

Hi

Chris is no longer doing the Xanavi language conversions. He decided it was not worth doing and so Chook does the conversions in Qld now.

But to answer your question, the developer believes he will have the conversion for the Series 2 V35 & M35 by the end of this year. That was the update about 3 weeks ago when I asked.

Cheers

Hi,

Just wondering can you run a Nissan Maxima or Murano or 370Z head unit on G37?

I'm assuming firmware for those model may able to allow G37's head unit to spit out English (totally speculating here as I know nothing about the software)

Cheers!

I have heard that the 370Z unit works and is about $7000 new from Nissan. That was a while ago might be cheaper now like $6500 :D

I saw a 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA RADIO/ NAVIGATION UNIT going for $700USD on ebay so just wondering if I can buy the head unit and swap them over.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
