hi guys

doesnt anyone know if it will definetly work with the v35?

not sure what the setup is on V35s with regard to antennas and inputs, PM Chris or read his info @ http://www.audioexpress.com.au/. I think he has fully integrated an add-on tuner as well as navigation to operate as 'factory'.

PS. DIY install updated to extraction of tuner and wiring procedure.

Will this work with the navigation/tv in toyota chasers

If they have AV inputs it will work, as it will display digital TV on a NTSC or PAL screen, youd have to investigate what the antenna setup is, or use the 'stick on' ones

some photos showing underside of unit and underside of factory tuner box(where VTR2 inputs are). Those 3 colour coded sockets(red,green and grey) + 1 larger socket are for the the factory aerials, best to label the cable before you cut off coloured plug.

Where do the VTR2 video inputs live in a standard S2 Xanavi setup? Are they in the boot?

Im also interested if these will work on M35's as the V35 have identical units (as far as i can see). I know there's AV inputs so would that be the only requirement?

EDIT - I just clicked on the link and realised.. lol

mxfly,

what is the setup on the M35's ? AV inputs in back as in the C34's ? have you checked out the aerial setup ?

perhaps someone with a M35 can post some pics ?

From what I have seen of mine when rigging up the AUX input for the Ipod it looked the same unit as in the S2 stagea. I did not look at the bottom of the unit for the ariels though but I all looks pretty similar.

Also the ipod input is the same for a V35 as a M35 so would assume that if the V35 can do this conversion the same can be said for the M35.

when connecting a dvd player to this tuner does it matter whether it is a pal or ntsc player

thanks, good question, i hadn't looked into this yet.

Did some tests, NTSC signal into Asuka tuner AV, no problem. PAL signal into Asuka tuner AV, didnt work on Stagea S2 screen. Both worked on an aftermarket screen. So, you can pass both pal and ntsc through the Asuka AV inputs no problem, but it wont perform any conversion, it will output the same as you put in. So you would need to use a NTSC signal to get a pic on the stagea S2 factory screens from the AV inputs on the Asuka tuner or factory tuner. shame

Not a problem for aftermarket late model screens, as most/ if not all, handle NTSC and PAL.

Guess you would need a dvd player which can output in NTSC or a separate PAL-NTSC converter or reburn your DVDs to NTSC using software such as NERO.

Have updated the installation guide as i fitted one to a '99 RS4 and found the wires are slightly different, so i used the 6-stacker harness, which was a much easier install, no need to remove factory tuner. Also bolted tuner to plastic shroud inside flip door, easier to access for connecting stuff like DVD and reverse camera etc

Also, for those wanting to connect dvd players and the like, there's this digital NTSC converter, stay away from the analogue ones, I used the previous model to this before in an old install in the stagea and found it worked flawlessly, seen them for around $200 delivered on ebay.

Yeah that was mine, am stoked with the result. Great picture. Highly recommended to anyone with a ntsc tv screen.

Would also highly recommend the screen override harness to allow viewing whilst in motion for passengers.

Huge thanks again for the install.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
