The Xanavi conversion will only work Series 1 V35 and M35's (2001 - early 2004).

A conversion for the series 2 (2004 - 2007) is being worked on but is taking longer than anticipated and will hopefully ready by second quarter 2011.

Hi Andy,

This is one of the things on the "to do list for 2011". As well as the Navi conversion.

Whats causing the bugs in the series 2 conversion ?

Cheers

I am not a programmer but I am told it is a totally different system so many new solutions required.

Just to add to the previous post, any developments on when the Series 2 conversion may be ready?

Would love to give you a due date but really do not know a fixed date at this stage. As the developer has moved to the US and this has made the installation process a little more difficult so he is working on automating the license process. Once this is complete the developer will work on finalizing the series 2 conversion.

Cheers

Andy

WOW! I have finally finished reading ALL 50 PAGES, 15 of them today, and now my head feels like it wants to explode. Im getting my M35 Stagea soon, hence why I am reading up on this subject.

Hey Andy good work on the conversion, coming from a club background I know what its like to do things for the club to promote and make members rides just that little bit better if not a lot. Hopefully the move to the US for your russsian contact doesnt slow the conversion :ermm: too much.

Got a question re the tv tuners though, I did read there is the Asuka tuners but I also did see a link for the HiTV tuners. Are you guys supplying both or just one, even though from the quick look at the Hitv, the Asuka looks better with the usb and hdmi jacks; though from previous experience with stb's I have had the rs-232 port can come in handy for firmware upgrades if needed. If you are doing the HiTv, what's the price and what experiences have people had with these if any.

Going to take some Neurofen now!! :sick:

Hi Guys,

Just bought myself a 2001 Stagea M35 250T a couple of weeks ago.

After reading though all the pages here I thought I have a chance on being able to use the Navi LCD in english or at least get to the "economy" screen.

But unfortunately the unit I have is the Birdview XFD7210 model. :/

Does anyone here know what model/part number the 2001-2003 xanavi unit? Or maybe have a spare one I can buy to replace this "newer"crap model I have here.

I'm located in Auckland New Zealand.

Cheers,

Roel

i have a complete working factory navi with screen, DVD ROM (for maps not video), tv tuner and all wiring.

also have the rear windows with the antennas in it.

the good thing is, its from an RX, so its the right colour for your car!

    • 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
