If you have a problem with your MFD LCD screen (busted scan lines, bad backlight, bad pixels),

then replace it with this fresh new one. I've done it. I can verify that replacing it with this panel

works great. Requires removal of MFD, and careful dis-assembly of MFD, connect two ribbon cables,

and re-assembly. Takes just 10 minutes and a screwdriver.

$200 plus $9.99 shipping bubble wrapped in anti-static foam.

As far as I know nissan do not sell the screen. They sell the entire MFD for mucho $$$s only.

the MFD is plastic surround and cage and buttons, the MFD circuit board with its various sensor inputs

and the toshiba screen.. this is just the screen.

a little bit off topic but around how much would the real mfd cost approx?

I see a second hand one in pretty poor shape listed at 90,000 yen about to close.

so after fees and expenses that is pretty close to $2000 aud.

and, this screen is the "real" mfd, as in, if you have a busted screen, it is this

screen that is busted.

Just in case people think this is an inferior non oem substitute..

If anyone knows where you can get the whole MFD (with casing etc) will buy it off you...or from Nissan itself lmaa i really dont mind spending the money its better than going aftermarket and getting an Alpine screen for example which costs a shitload and doesnt even fit the factory center console on my GT...

There was 2 types of screens used in the GTR mfd, the early models used a Sharp screen, and the late models used a Toshiba screen. (as far as I know there was a supply issue with the Sharp LCD, thats why it got changed.) From what I can figure out the Nismo GTR MFD2 Unit will accept either LCD as there are both the connectors.

Make sure your GTR screen has 2x ribbon cables going to the LCD, a skinny ribbon cable and wide ribbon cable (Toshiba), or if it as 1x 30pin cable it a Sharp screen and will not fit!!

I am currently experimenting with both types of unit and will be putting up an in depth post in future...

Hi Mate,

I've got a 99 34GTR with the annoying white tram lines going through the RHS of the MFD... Can you pls confirm the toshiba screen your selling is a direct replacement for the early model 34 GTR's!

... If so can you pls put me down for one

will PM you

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
