Hey Guys, I've just bought a 350GT V35 and I've been reading an old thread in regards to a language disc being available, and talk of a Nav disc possibly being available also.  Did anyone use these successfully and if so where are they still available for purchase?

I now have a 370GT, but when I got my 350GT the first thing I did was get it translated. I dont know if there is anyone still doing the translations for the 350GT. At the time, it was simply a short 10 minute job where the guy put a CD in the nav slot, and it was done a few minutes later. On my 370GT I had to get some unique info from my computer and they had to burm a disk specific for my car.

The short story is, if you can find someone with "the disk" I think it should work. I dont remember the guy doing anything specific for my individual car; but you already appear to know that. Maybe someone has shared the disk as a torrent:unsure2:

Nope, the Russians (Xanavi) who did the translation no longer do it, as far as I am aware.

It was not as simple as putting a disk in - the guy in each state who was their agent had to be online with them and put in codes from the GPS etc to unlock the maps and make the translation work.

And no, no-one has gotten the maps to work. Putting an overlay over the screen and running Apple car play is the only (and expensive) option.

Not sure if any of interest but I am in the process of re-fitting the original display for a 6.5" TFT with better resolution, remove all of the old nonsense and use a raspberry pi with "crankshaft OS". Then you can mirror your android phone over bluetooth or USB and use your phone satnav, play music etc. Fit's over the old display bezel but needs a custom PCB which I will work on later, need to finish my engine swap first 😃

I personally am not concerned with the actual display resolution. What does bother me, is the display of the camera from the  passenger side camera. It looks to be a seriously low res camera.

I am guessing you have already considered the Tesla screen conversion?

As for displaying your phone screen in the center screen, my car has AUX video and sound, but of course that will not support touch screen events. There is also an iPod interface. I wonder if that also supports video and touch? IDK On my previous 350GT, I had a small bluetooth keyboard with a touch pad to control the phone I mirrored (VNC'd) onto the screen..

Haven't heard about the tesla screen tbh, but not a fan of big screens anyway.

The TFT I have might be 7" actually but has touch as well so I can control the phone via the screen. I'll share more info about this later when I get it installed and working. Just wanted to share this option here as well.

If your not into big screens, then the Tesla screen is well out of what you are looking for. The good thing is that from my understanding, its basically an Android tablet integrated into the the cars controls. So all the AC/Climate controls etc are there, as well as the latest navigation that can be installed on an android phone and ODBII software etc  etc. I'm not a fan of fixed/hardware navigation systems.

 

Nifty may just have something you could re-use in your system.

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.

      I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.

      Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
