I've heard of some rather brilliant folk, here on the forums, carefully converting theirs into aquariums.....

Bit like that PC aquarium screen saver, only for like, real....do a search!

Failing that, start with this.....

You'll see alot of a particular name, involved quite heavily with this sort of stuff....I think his name is Buck Rogers...he's from space.

(I wave the Buck Rogers flag, almost daily).

lol @ ^ ...i like that Buck Rogers.

In relation to the topic, theres not much we can do about it as YET... the guys here on the forum are working very closely just to come up with something for us and our system.... after that, they will be like an instant lotto winner! hehehe because we all want to put our TV in use!

I know couple of Jap car dealer here in sydney that can do the TV. but all they do is install something that takes nearly all day, they give you the remote and all you can do to it is press up or down for local channels... im not sure if this would affect the rest of the entertainment unit also...

and Yes the screen will still be in Jap. they will just teach you how to navigate through it.

I did a FAQ on most of this you know. did you look at the stickies up top ??

as for TV- depends on what you want it to do. the OE gear is useless. the OE navi has no maps and the only thing that is really being done on it (with no visible result yet) is the firmware rewrite.

if all you want to do is watch TV then I suggest you go buy a new tuner for it and be done with it.

if you have unlimited funds - CAR PC. Im researching a replacement unit now that is car PC based but the issue I'm having is screens (look at the TS navi thread I started.)

tell us what you want it to do and from there we'll help.

So basically *at the moment* there is in auxiliary in you can use for whatever you can put on a screen but except for fuel economy in Jap and what not there isn't much that can be done with the existing gear hooked up to it.

yep anything that has composite video in NTSC format will go straight in. so Ipod docks go straight in with modding to the unit.

the navi refit is a different matter.

Closing as has been discussed a kabillion times and there are more threads on this topic than hot chicks at a playboy party. If anyone wants it re-opened, please PM me.

Seriously though, Chris has spent alot of time putting together info for you guys, so please as he has suggested, look up the stickies and have a read.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
