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?

I have the partial conversion in my car, yes.

....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.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
