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

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
