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.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
