Yep and all the units have CAN controllers to report if there working or not, and centralized everything in the AV Unit. Unlike the non bose, base units.

Check out the US manual and you can see the sort of complexity your dealing with...

Here's a fun thing to look at. Turn the car on, turn your audio off, press and hold settings button (bottom left, big button) then spin the volume control. Then practice your Japanese, i'll try and get my friend to translate it and put some screen dumps up. Definitely useful if you start splicing stuff into the car and you want to make sure it still works.

It will bring up the diagnostic screen and show you whats connected. I pulled the TV unit out the other day to have a look inside to see what chips were on it, some TV tuner micro chip boards follow a standard plug and play design for the tuner. No luck, recognized half the chips on the mother board, but need to know the pinouts are on the connection, If i had the Japanese manual for the actual car then i could get somewhere,

But does show up clear as day on the diagnostic screen that it is not plugged and simplifies the TV/AUX button so it just goes to AUX and you don't have useless fuzzy TV screen stuff. And there is tons of room in the boot back there to fit something in there...

I've seen lots of posts in the states with guys porting CarPC's in there and using Centrafuse, splicing into the unit either with the reverse cam or GVIF boards and then hooking into the OEM touch screen or adding an overlay over the top.

But yes definitely in the $3k territory plus fitting.

mike lo , are you in vic at all? (and if you are do you deal with me.)

the above post is pretty much correct. xanavi (hitachi) are very closed about who has access to FSMs for those units. I have tried several times without success to get info on that unit. at least with the clarion (non nav) I can get info .

Hey Chris,

Interested to know what you think would happen if someone managed to capture a HDD image from a 2009+ NAVI optioned local Murano Z51 Ti, Navara STX-550, 370Z or Pathfinder Ti R51? Do you think the image would even boot?

I assume the buttons would still present a fairly major challenge since they all appear to be in different places.

Had a chance to buy this the other day

Nissan Infiniti G37 CONT ASSY-IT MASTER HDD car Navigation 25915 1MA4B 1JG0A 1JA0A US version

The price was less than $400 delivered.

Would it have been any use to us?

Is the 2010 V36 very different to the 2008?

I found a 2010 coupe on Carsales with Aus GPS that looks to have come with bose/jap nav.

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
