So... my V35 Skyline Coupe was delayed... and was supposed to arrive in Adelaide today... and that got me thinking!

I remember when my cousin owned a Series II V35 Skyline 350GT Coupe and when he started up the car, every time a Japanese female voice would say something...

I just wanted to know how many other V35 owners out there have a Skyline with this same feature?

Was it available on all V35 Skyline's or just the 350GT Coupes?

Also... what does she say? ...I always found this small 'JDM' aspect of the car quite cool...

Well what a surprise, when I start up my V35 Skyline 350GT Coupe (Premium) the sexy Japanese voice plays, and she says hello :)

I assume you have the Nav DVD?

Any chance of uploading an ISO or something somewhere? Struggling to source a copy myself.

Mine does it I have a 350gt premium. Before I got the sat nav and all the rest coverted to English when a door wasn't closed properly the sexy Japanese voice would come on assuming to tell me to close the door and also if the foot brake was on while driving shed pester me again.

But unfortunately when I got the sat nav converted it doesn't do it anymore but it still welcomes me when I start the car up :) it's great when someone jumps in because they are like WTF??

I've tried to get a voice translator app to find out what she says but it never works

Can someone clarify if this is only for series 2+? Cheers

One of those Chris Rogers questions. Last post I recall from him is you need to have the Nav DVD in the DVD drive. Sikahalv said he has the voice and it is a 2003 model which is series 1.

Confirmed - Sexy Female Japanese Voice = Turning engine on, within approx 15 seconds - 2003 V35 Skyline 350GT Coupe Premium (Series 1 + BOSE... No Sat Nav, No DVD, No Nissan Wings)

Have not heard her under any other conditions.

This was (before this thread) one of the most unspoken about topics re: V35 Skyline quirks on the Internets! (yes, all of them)

I'm glad we got people talking about this - so we can learn more about her :)

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
