V36 Radio/Satnav options

Hi all, 

I'm sorry if this topic has been done to death, but I've had a bit of a look around the forum and can't see a discussion around this specific topic... I'm aware that it's a real pain to get the JDM multimedia system translated to English, and the alternative would be to install an aftermarket head unit/screen. But has anyone tried to install the multimedia system and bezel from a USDM Infiniti? They're plentiful on eBay and can be had for less than $300 but would they work? 

I've heard that all the electrics 'talk to each other' in these cars so would swapping the head unit cause any issues?

If you want a Sat Nav that has US maps then go for it.

You can get a Android based system done. thats the cheapest.

Getting the FM to work is cheap.

Changing the speedo/cluster from the US has been done

Hi guys, sorry for bugging in, but how does the Android based system work? Is it easy to fix it up? Would really appreciate if you could shed some more light on it.
Thanks in advance.

I have a 2007 model and have had the full jap to English swap done.

Wasn't cheap but well worth it as I wanted the full functionality in English. Had to wait for the new screen and drive to arrive as the parts were brand new.

Everything works as designed from factory, sat Nav, radio etc all work perfect along with the steering wheel controls.

Let me know if you want any details on where it was done.

Lost voice control, the ION air cab filter control and whatever "Carwings" was

Everything else works great

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
