Any-one had any success with the indash sat/nav on the nm35. Wondering if the car had been sold as new in any english speaking countries. If it was sold new in say America or New Zealand then there should be a replacement rom drive with english firmware.

Kinda bugs me having things in the car that don't work.

best to read that thread.

very short version - live with it or have $3k handy for e to mod it . theres not a box that drops into that car thats in english. the nearest box will be out of a G35 infiniti and thats not even close to working as intended for japan.

If I give you $3k can you make it all work, or only bits of it.

But bare in mind (correct me if I'm wrong Chris) the on-screen navigation (i.e. fuel efficiency etc) will STILL be in japanese.

I don't believe the German mob who are translating it have finished the project yet, once they have we will be able to buy the upgrade DVD.

Chris - on a second note I have been trying to get in touch with Haki from Crankin' Car Audio in reference to the TV/Sat Nav fit out, he was going to provide me quotation etc. He never got back to me and I emailed him a fortnight ago just to follow it up and still havn't heard anything. He still in business?

Russian. :rolleyes:

(Obviously. I mean, who else would you turn to, to translate Japanese to English on a JDM only car?)

OOps... for some reason I got mixed up and thought it was the Germans! :P

I think the Russians are doing it because they import heaps of Stagea's into the country, I think they had already translated the firmware from Japanese to Russian? :blink:

Do you think it's ever going to be finished though? it's severely behind schedule, would be cool to have it in English.

Confusing Russians with Germans?... For shaaaammmmeeee (as Abe Simpson would say).

Yes, I think it will get finished.... eventually (I have to believe it man!).

Yes it would be cool.

Hey Andy, have you got the disc with the partial translation or was that a screen shot sent to you by the developer?

....and would you be willing to share this PARTIAL conversion disc to appease us while we patiently await the FULL conversion?

It's been marked as special for Andy. So you'd have this Russian woman's voice fire up every time you started the car saying "Thanks for turning me on Andy." >_<

Ok, no worries, will do.

Will be in the Auburn district later this afternoon so I may call in to his workshop tomorrow morning and give him some harrassment (just kidding).

I will pass on your regards Chris :closedeyes:

Why doesn't mine talk? I've never heard it took in any language, not even when I drive with the driver's door open lol

Do you have to do anything special to activate it?

The day I bought mine, reversed out of the driveway with the handbrake on "Something, something, something, handbrakeo" (Lady in japanese, obviously) thought it was hilarious.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
