Installed my cable today on the Stagea and it plays my iTunes music through the stereo fine, and my iTunes videos through my screen fine, I was able to keep the reverse camera ffunction no problems, but I was expecting it to be able to run my Co Pilot Sat Navigation application from my iPad as well, but it doesn't.

anyone know why it only runs the functions out of itunes only and not any other function from the ipad through the screen??

Hi Graham, as far as I know only a few selected (and most Apple developed) applications can be outputted via the dock connector. If you have a look at Apple VGA cable for the iPad you'll see a ton of people's reviews for the thing being quite disappointed that it doesn't mirror everything displayed on screen to other display sources.

So I assume it would be much the same (or worse) for the standard cable you've installed in your Stag.

Don't think theres much way around it otherwise. Sorry.

I found the same thing with my v35. I bought an app called tvout genie, absolute crap. While it did output some apps to video, the picture was useless.

Ok then. Thanks for the feedback guys.

I will have to just be happy to have what I have I guess.

I've also just discovered that for Ipad/Ipod applications to be viewed on an external 2nd screen. The developers of that particular

application need to enable that within the software and it seems that most haven't shown interest in doing that thus far.

Maybe in future upgrades for each individual application??

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
