Post up a pic of your Keitai! (Mobile Phone)


Recommended Posts

Has served me well in the 6 months that I've had it... Panasonic P505iS: 1.3 megapixel, 20x digital zoom, 64 meg Mini SD memory card, 3 mins total video rec time, and last but not least... a barcode reader (?)

Damnit, we Aussies miss out on all the good stuff!
Actually, I think Australia is lagging behind Japan about 1 year or so when it comes to mobile phones.

On another note, I saw that Plasma TVs and LCD flat panel TVs were almost as common in Australia as Japan... REALLY suprising... (exept in Japan the flatscreen CRT TV is almost dead, whereas in Australia thet still had a good selection).

Australia is not too bad as far as mobile tech goes: sure, we can't touch Japan, but at least we are not in the pre-historic ages like the US :rofl:

funkymonkey: helps that the major producers of LCD panels are Korean of course *cough* LG *cough* Samsung.

LW.

Here is mine...taken from the Vodafone site(black one).

Served me well for a year now...but due to it having been dropped many times it plays weird triks on me:p

I like the one with the TV tuner....what an invention...excellent quality as well!!

Anyway its amazing what a differance a year makes in the mobile phone market...

:D

Not so sure about the TV tuner one, not if you're in Yamanashi - you can only receive 2 channels clearly! :P

Watching TV and then taking a few calls would just about run the battery down too...

there's decent stuff out there, but not many resellers in Australia wanna seem to wanna get stuff from there. orange has sorta brushed the surface, but manufacturers like LG, Hitachi and Sanyo n Samsung all have AWESOME phons for the 3G networks, its a shame the 3G infrastructure in aus is still in its infancy. Once 3G kicks off full shwing then we'll kick Japan's ass.

Japans adavanced phone system was due to it pioneering telecomms department in govt. Wheras here we had telstra with a stranfglehold on what can and cannot be done. With telstra fully privatised that should be a thing of the past and new exciting stuff should be available soon.

I don't think Japan has anything to be jealous about when it comes to mobile phone services in other countries. Cheap phones, continuous new products, great service, never a problem, excellent coverage and getting better FAST, fair charges...do I need to go on? In fact the only thing that you can't do here in Japan compared to overseas is use the same number if you change service. They are working on this and it should be available in the next few years...

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
