Hi,

Sorry if this has already been asked. Does anyone know anything about installing the stock M35 pop up unit (don't really care about the unit itself, just the pop up housing) into a model that has the mini glove box instead? Is it possible? If so would you have to replace the much of the dash or is their some simple way of doing it?

Something like this:

Also anyone selling one? ;)

you will also need to purchase a new speedo as yours wouldn't be compatible with the trip function. as long as it comes with all wiring, tuner, screen, dvd rom, aerials. then fun part of ripping out seats, boot linings, roof linings, floor, dash, center console. then trying to source a tv tuner from commsman (leon)

Your question has already been asked........10 days ago............by you. :huh:Installing The Oem Pop Up Screen In A Non-Sat-Nav M35?

You could try a wreckers (V35 Skyline should be the same), that way you can ensure you get all the necessary mounting brackets, etc. You will need to fabricate a filler panel where the nav buttons go or you could just put the buttons in (not connected) to give your passengers something to fiddle with :D.

I'm interested in how you go with this. As I indicated in your other thread, I am thinking about doing a similar thing except mine is a Series 2.

Cheers

Sorry, haven't done these for a while. Plenty on Ebay that are cheap (just don't have all of the features).

he already said in his original post he doesn't care about the screen, only the mechanical unit that does the work. probably putting his own stuff in. smart, better than attempting a conversion

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
