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 :)

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
