We are currently working on converting the V35/M35 series 2 cars and we hope to have this ready by mid this year (shit this is getting close).

The schedule is that once the V35 series 2 is complete we will be working on a solution for the V36. This is aimed to be in place late this year.

Cheers

Andy

Please explain more :ninja:

There is a software developer in Russia who has said he can create a firmware upgrade for the V36 system that will change the screen language to English. He has estimated that it would be ready by the end of this year.

Andy,

I'll be in this for sure when its ready. We have about 5 V36 drivers up here in Singapore so I will spread the word that a potential solution is near.

Thanks

Am looking forward also for the V36 language software change! As for the navigation I have used a Garmin hide away unit and have run it through the camera system and turn it on and off via a switch. The easy way was just to use the Aux Inputs in the consuel, but I wanted to still be able to listen to music with the nav running (the Gamin has it's own aux speaker you can mount any where)

It works a treat!

Does anyone know the difference between the Aus 370Z and the V36 Skyline centre console screen/sat nav ? looks the same in the photos ?

Just wondering if its the same and therefore possible to upgrade into English ?

entirely different. its a $4-5k exercise if you wnat to attempt it.

Thought ur name looked familiar ... had many a discussion with u about the MMCS on the OZVR4 site about 2 years ago ... (aka. takumi, had a legnum before i moved back to nissan)

Shame they didn't use the same system ...

Hey Guys, I am also new to the site. I have a 2007 V36 370GT Coupe and have had it now for a little over 18 months. I think I might have been one of the first in Aus to have one. Anyway I have taken the plunge and bought the whole in-dash set up from the States, the Jap voice was giving me the shits. I bought the screen, loom, all panels the button cluster, brain, and it even came with the little analog clock. (Infiniti decals and all). it was a little $$$ but hey I paid so much for the car already. I am looking for a a decent car tuning store that can set this all up for me in Syd. I realise to an extent I am the cop but I just want my car to work. I know the GPS will be US but I will deal with that later.

Any help would be appreciated. also if you see me around Syd, holla at me as I am a Brissy boy and I don't really know many people in the Syd car scene Pics on my profile

PS: Just a tip for anyone who wants to source the english buttons from the states and retro fit. The US buttons are all backwards, due to LHD [/size][/size]

How have you progressed with this :bunny:

Hello Andy,

I am interested in this. Please keep me informed as I would love to get my V36 converted

Cheers

I've also got an 08 370gt in red and am very interested in the language conversion. I heard it was coming but didn't think it would be so soon. Great news, please keep us updated. Also i'm having the factory Nav unit modified with the Aus maps and voices using all the factory components inc touch screen and controlls etc. Ill let you know how it goes and post some pics asuming all goes well!

So is this the aux GARMIN solution? how exactly are you having the FACTORY NAV unit modified with AUS maps & voices? Will voice command work as well?

I would LOVE to see how they implement that one. touch screen yes. full controls - I do not think so.

at best you will grab the touch overlay , redirect that into a chinese navi box and then have something that partially works.

voice command - nup.

I have one to do in a week and a bit myself and that will be done with garmin and tie all the cameras in as well. audio will be external as this is a bose car. I have a proper video interface I use for these cars.

who is doing the job?

I have the Gamin hide away and it works well. I have it running through the camera system. I use the centre speaker for the sat nav as I don't use it for the cd. I have replaced all the speakers and amps and run a sub.

Hey all, No progress on the JDM/USDM conversion as yet. I am still over seas and have put my car up for sale. If there is anyone on here that would like to purchase the car, check it out on car sales. It will be sold with the USDM setup (unfitted) but is all there ready to go. I think when I get back I will be purchasing and R35

Cheers and sorry I couldnt add to the thread.

if soome can find me a place to host a 30gb image I'll unlock and image the CKV36 I have here. then we can play. looking at it from teh outside there is a boot loader on the CPU and the rest is HDD based.

I figure there are enough people on here that are IT based and smart enough to pull this thing apart. I can do hardware but I'm not the best with software.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
