NM35 mirroring box

Hey everyone!

I have done a couple searches on the forum and it seems like the popular choice is installing an Asuka TV tuner into the stock TV tuner, unfortunately I am having issues finding one to buy online. I am wondering if anyone has installed a mirroring box instead? I have been able to find the Asuka mirroring box and similar units for sale, my only concern is how the screen will displayed mirroring a smart phone specifically for downloaded netflix shows. Having digital TV does interest me but I feel the amount of channels I will get in Canada and road tripping into the US it would just be better to mirror my device into the TV tuner.

A little info on the car if that changes anything: 2002 Nissan Stagea 250t RS, it has an aftermarket japanese head unit in it, the TV tuner works as much as it can without an analogue signal and I am located in Canada.

 

Here are two mirroring boxes that I am considering:

asuka mirror

Generic mirror

One of the primary problems with the stock screen is its resolution, its very low so the quality is typically poor so the display quality of your phone mirrored on the screen might not be the best, especially for watching streaming content such as Netflix etc...

I had an Aux setup wired into mine to display my phone and play audio, the audio was fine but the screen was pretty much unwatchable.

The alternative some people have taken is to wire in a Raspberry Pi to give more control over the picture quality but even then the results have been disappointing.

As someone who's been down that path I'd advise you to forget about the stock screen and invest in a good Bluetooth double din Android head unit, despite the extra outlay it'll be a much better result.

    • New R34 owned here (from the US) and found a gem, '98 GTT with ~6k miles, super clean & completely stock. When shifting there's no grinding, shifts smooth, etc. The concern I have are 2 things: 1) Only in 2nd and 3rd... when maintaining a slower speed (in traffic as an example) as I let off/on the gas, the shifter will slightly move and vibrate. If the clutch is engaged, none of this happens. It's not bad, but enough to feel like something isn't necessarily right. 2) This mainly happen in 4th or 5th... the shifter slightly bounces up and down, almost like it's riding on unbalanced tires (and I do think the tires are unbalanced as I get a little of that bounce feel at higher speeds, which is maybe why it only happens in 4th/5th). Lastly, and sorry for this noob question but I want to work on this car myself, can someone teach me some on these manual transmissions? Like servicing them, best products to use, etc.; would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
    • Coilovers aren't even the first step. Bushes, subframe position and alignment, HICAS elimination, adjustable upper arms and traction arms in order to dial out understeer. All these things need/deserve attention first. ARBs (There's no such thing as a swaybar. Please, everybody, stop calling them that) are useful if you want to limit spring stiffness. Otherwise you can control body roll with springs. Spring and damper rates are a function of road surface, speed and usage. There is no solution that works for all cases.
    • Define "nothing". Is the starter spinning but not the engine? Engine turning but not firing? If the engine is turning but not firing, then you are missing either fuel or spark. You need to find whichever has gone missing.
    • Shitbox Tiguan updates, got the APR OTS tune put back on (no charge for it to be removed/added back), didn't want to just come in just for that (not a fan of wasting people's time for nothing) so I purchased an APR dog bone insert. The boys at German Performance Garage said they would fit it for free too since they had 1x hoist free. Now that's service you don't normally get from most workshops. Anyhow, tune back on, snow grate pulled out, dog bone insert back in and not going to lie, a few smiles when I nailed it around the industrial area heading back onto the M7. Amayama also said 1 to 2.5 month wait for the RB25DE heater hose, yeah why not, car has been off the road for nearly 3, what's a other 2.5?
    • Hmm I'm going to approach this from the other side... What is the car doing that you don't like or what would you like the car to do that is currently isn't doing (handling wise that is)
