Hey y'all! :)

Basically just bought an infiniti G35 2003 model Stereo CD center console with navigation + DVD player and fitted it to my stagea.

Apart form that I changed LEDs to red, just something for myself.

Cool, so the G35 is obviously quite compatible, since you are viewing fuel usage info etc. I thought you had to re-chip the stereo... nice

needs modification? or straight fit? with all the navi working fine?

will i be able to get maps put on this unit? or same story again with no car in australia with the australian maps that will load on this unit?

whats so hard about it. he had a navi car to begin with and bolted the USDM gear into it. the cruise unit came from me.

I wasn't :cool:

if you can put a band expander into it then you are pretty much done. out with one section and in with the other. the navi unit plugs in. there are a few spare leads left over from the TV side of things but thats it. the LED's - pass. too many and way too fiddly for the average punter.

only minor downer is the lack of AM. FM is useable.

chipping the radio was something I was working on and I cannot get the thing to stop drifting off the station..

hmm if its that easy, then it migh be an option for us all that want english 'conversions'

now; navigation???

still the same issue. no maps.

Aren't the US and JAP navi systems different though?

I thought that the Japan system is a Xanavi... not sure about the US system, but maybe something over here uses the same type of navi? Toyota maybe??

similar chassis though it runs a different software mapping engine to anything here.

vlad's idea fixed the most common bugbears of these cars. he did lose the TV option though. (I'm assuming he had it in the first place.)

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
