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 $$$$

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
