ummm.... find the menu with the key pad under "phone" , then enter something 4 digit and go "enter" it will pop up a japanese text box with "!" somewhere, leave it on this pop up box (don't press anything) then search for your car using your phone.... select "MY-CAR" and it should pair, and the menu will dissapear...

as for loading iphone contacts into the phone... still working through how to do that! haha

ummm... let me find out...

about to go for a drive will be back in a couple hours and note down the steps i took.

Must have been a long drive ? When u get back can u let me know if u remembered the sequences ? Very keen for this. I tryed for ages this morning but have no idea what menu I'm in, they all seem like sat nav menus.

If u can't work it out by the weekend I'm going to take it to a Japanese freind and write down what the menus and buttons say, then post it up.

Hey I paired mine by working it out using the English manuals I posted up.

Obviously I can't remember it exactly as it was a few weeks ago, however, the first button I pressed was 'Settings' (the button that takes you into the menu where the first menu item is the Audio settings (Bass etc) - NOT the menu that takes you into that VICS stuff (which I have no idea what it is)

Once you've pressed 'Settings', then press 'Phone'. It's the first or second selection on the 2nd column / right hand side. You'll know you're in this sub-menu because you can see the English word 'Bluetooth'.

One of the Japanese words on this menu is 'Pair phone'. I can't remember which one exactly, I think it's one under 'Bluetooth', however (again from memory) it's one that takes you to a different screen that has a number entry thing on it. This is where you set the passcode. I just left it as 1234. On this number entry screen one button is 'go back/cancel/delete (number)' and the other is 'OK' (I suppose).

After pressing 'OK' a little dialog box comes up with Jap text and the words 'MY-CAR'. This must say something to the effect of 'Please put your device on discover mode and search for MY-CAR'. I put my phone in discover mode and it connected.

I can make calls with it just fine, but when people call me it hangs up after one ring. I have no idea why it does that and I'd love to fix that one.

Hope the above helps. Corrections welcome.

I really need to go through those English manuals. I just fumbled around in mine until I was able to delete the previous owners J-pop and classical music off the musicbox. :)

I really like the button that makes a japanese woman speak to me. I'm not sure what she's saying, but its very soothing.

Ideally we'd have a screenshot of each screen with English translations. Not a trivial task of course.

On the plus side each screen has an ID number in the manuals, we can use that to refer to them.

I bought a set of Infiniti manuals from eBay US. Much easier than flipping through print outs in the car (I found them too lengthy to do from memory). I suppose an iPad might be OK.

Note - the US English manuals aren't a 1:1 with the Jap menus, although they are more similar than they are different.

I paired mine the other day and it works a treat. A guy that I'm doing work for on his Rex has a girl that's works for him that spent a couple of years living and working in Japan. She came round and we went through it all.

Unfortunately I didn't have the time to document it all as with me sitting there playing wasn't earning me a living.

But I will give her a heap of pics that she said she would translate for me. I did learn alot!

Yes I also have some crappy music installed on my music box, some old mans rubbish and some japanese bands ... quite funny.

The little circle button on the left makes some japanese lady speak to me. I'll go have a play and see if I can get the phone paired and on the weekend I'll try get some translations if I get time.

Finally got to play with all the options on the car today after being away on holiday. I have now got the iphone's bluetooth Paired, the musicbox deleted and started adding cd's to the HDD (this is v.cool). Has anyone cut the VSS wire and earthed the handbrake cable yet to get video on the move for the other passengers ? I checked out how to do it from the US version but of course our plugs are differen, so if anyone has done it already can they post the pinouts for the two wires and which plug u used ?

Also wondering if anyone has used the AV cables from the iphone through the RCA inputs in the console ? I want to know if the iphone video works on the screen before I buy the cable.

I have done this, plugs are the same. Use the same pinout numbers as show in the US, just ignore the colors. Works a treat :whoops:

yep it does. set the phone to TV out and make sure the cable you buy will spit out video before you buy it. VIM - looks like you found that.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
