Japan uses analogue TV signals which are not used in Australia anymore. We use DVT-B signal so you would need to install a Digital TV Tuner into your car via Video put on console.

i believe this is from what Chris Rogers has said previously: "There are no maps for this unit used in the Australian market. You can install a aftermarket navigation unit to the factory radio via Video input however the touch screen feature wont work (as of now)"

Someone also mentioned to me the format the maps are loaded into the cars are NTSC/PAL (one or the other) and australian maps are only the other kind.

one of the stickied threads goes through this and much more. use google to search SAU.

I guess doing a little homework here on this site is a very rude expectation.

Updates (as in English conversions) - information is here (second from the top of the thread list): http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/421465-v36-nav-and-language-swap-faq/

and if you used the search box in the top right corner just using the letters "TV", here: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/436316-japanese-to-english-conversion-for-v36-oem-swap/

In short, language conversion is difficult and expensive. TV conversion is not feasible, better to consider an external unit plugged into the car's AV sockets in the centre console.

For the rest, do some searching and reading like the rest of us. It's not as difficult as the conversions. ;)

More accurately, Japan decommissioned analogue in March 2012, so any vehicle manufactured up until then (if not slightly earlier), would have an analogue tuner.

Thereafter, I'd expect them to have DVB-T receivers but nevertheless, the colour system that Japan uses is completely different to Australia (NTSC vs PAL) so even if it did receive our channels, there's the possibility that the receiver doesn't function as a multistandard unit anyway. It's not an expensive exercise to make it multisystem but we're talking about motor vehicle manufacturers here. :/

Nonetheless, your recommendation is the best one but I don't watch any FTA TV at home, so I'm happy just screen mirroring from my mobile phone instead for the GPS or the occasional live webstream.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
