I’m looking at buying a R34 GT-T that has a pop-up TV and Sat Navigation mounted in the dash, and wanting to know if they can be configured to work in Australia. I have heard of converting NTSC to Pal in the TV’s, however a little worried about the Sat Navigation system. Anyone out there who has successfully converted the TV and Navigation system to work in Australia?

I was gunna post the same question tonite but saw this post on the front page! :) [Long time reader, short time member :-)]

I have an R34 with the popup TV and took it to a car stereo place to find out if it is possible to hook up a dvd player and australian tv tuner to the screen, but they recon it cant be done.

I cant see why not... when ya playin a cd the deck says "aux"...so surely it would be as simple as plugin the stuff in through the auxilary input...it is after all just a TV screen?!?!?!

As for the sat nav, dont think there is even the slightest chance of gettin that workin over here!

But the screen is still useful (for toss factor)...when ya play a cd the tv screen shows the tracks numbers and stop/play/fwd/rwd buttons...and ya use the sat nav joystick to move between em!

Maybe the HKS "CAMP" stuff could be hooked up to the screen at least...since both are japanese???

I only discovered the popup screen when I was on my way home from pickin up the car... "Damn where are my gauges on the top of the dash!!! hmmm...wonder what this 'open/close' button does....coooooooooooooooooool" :-)

Speaking of cool things, bumped a switch on the drivers side arm rest and didn't notice that the mirrors automatically folded in and then went to use them and thought some b#@%$^d had knocked em off ........... decided I should read the manual ....... so that's what that switch does.

My r33 has sat nav and a TV. The navigation is CDROM based and its only in japanese. No conversion. No australian CD. I simply unplugged it and plugged in a car dvd player via RCA. Works awesome. Forget about the sat nav, it wont work without spending $$$$

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
