Reference on the ALPINE site. scroll down to ' Steering remote ready ', talks about using the factory steering buttons. http://www.alpine.com.au/support/glossary.asp

Is the head unit clarion ? Could be compatable with an aftermarket Clarion ?

Either way, if you talk to the right car sound people (not JB), it is highly likely you can keep them working.

Cheers, mate. Will do in the near future.

Has anyone managed to swap their head unit and keep the oem steering wheel control?

I want to install a dvd head unit but would like to keep the remote functional.

There are a few companies that sell units that say there compatible (clarion, pioneer and alpine) but from what I've read it not always a simple install.

Hi Guys,

Great forum you have here, lots of useful information and helpful answers.

I've got a 2002 Stagea 250RS with the Autech AeroSelect modifications.

I notice in a lot of the M35 stagea's that they have a pop-up screen just below the clock display, so I am wondering if there is one hiding behind the Panasonic TR-T70W2 screen in mine? The Screen has english buttons, but the menus are all in Japanese. I sometimes get a fuzzy TV picture, but have never seen any of the fuel economy information or any other useful info like that. I have the Tr-T70w2 manual, and have found some partial translations via Google, but so far haven't found anything that remotely looks like on-board technical data.

Is it possible that this screen isn't connected to the on-board stuff at all?

The Sat nav is a panasonic CN-DV2200, but with no DVD, and from what I can tell, it sounds like the Sat Nav isn't worth a can of beans.

Anyway, I've attached a photo of the dash.

Cheers,

It looks like your car did not come with the Factory optioned, TV/GPS option. Without this option you will not get all the other functions related to Fuel economy, trip computer etc.

If you look around you will find some where a module that is controlling the GPS and TV that you are getting. If you have the factory TV tuner it will be behind the passenger side rear kick panel in the boot.

It would be easier with your set up to see if you can plug in another TV tuner or GPS module to get these features if this is what you are after.

Thanks for the prompt response Andy. I too was wondering why they would install the panasonic stuff if the cars were made with TV/GPS, but as you say if it was an option this can didn't come with that would make a lot more sense.

I'm not fussed with watching TV in the car, but thought it would be good to figure out milage and trip computer stuff.

I'll have a look behind the kick panel on the weekend, but suspect that it will be a Japanese, not good for NZ!

I might have to take it to an auto electrician in Hamilton and see what they can find out about the existing system.

cheers,

Tom

I belive that this should help you out...

My AR-X, which I am collecting next week, is equiped with a Panasonic CN-DV150D TV/Sat-Nav, so this was part of my homework.. I reckon I might be able to plug a iPod video into the AV input on this thing, whilst pushing the audio out to the OEM audio through one of the USDM solutions..

There are a few companies that sell units that say there compatible (clarion, pioneer and alpine) but from what I've read it not always a simple install.

it can be done easily. the OEM control units rely on a translation box. they are NOT plug and go. I have done several now and its definitely doable.

in regard to the last post - most of those have a AV in so if you can get to one of those input and your source plays NTSC video then you have got it sussed.

failing that pull the lot out and replace the pocket.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.

      The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.

      Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.

      By Kapr · Posted

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
