Hi,

My SII R33 Skyline came with one of those factory Nissan Screens that are used for a GPS. Does anyone know if i can use this monitor for anything else (eg. attach a playstation or dvd player to it)? there is a button on it saying TV/CD but everything is in Japanese so I dont have a clue what it means. Any help would be great. Dont want to waste this screen. Thanks

Steve

Usually they have an aux input so you can hook a dvd/mp3 player up to them.

They usually put the control box under the passenger seat, or up under the dash on the passengers side.

Just remember that the screen will more than likey be NTSC, not the Australian standard of PAL.

I've got the TV/sat nav stuff in the Stagea, I've ripped all the sat nav stuff out and will just use the screen. I've found (on the net) a small unit that plays mpg/avi/divx/dvd etc, also plays mp3 and comes with USB2 and a 20gig hard drive.

Very handy to load and play movies and mp3's anywhere you go.

Hey guys,

I had the same unit in mine. A guy in Vic Park on Teddington Rd, HiFi place, can't remeber for the life of me what is was called, does all sorts of mods, he told me he could modify the unit and make it able to play TV/DVD etc. The GPS unit with it doesn't work in Aust, as in Japan they use a different system, their's updates as you drive or something!

Can't remember his name either, think it may have been Greg?? He was pretty helpfull, knows his stuff! Go check it out, it's close to the lights of Shepperton Rd.

Hey guys,

I had the same unit in mine. A guy here in Perth does all sorts of mods, he told me he could modify the unit and make it able to play TV/DVD etc. The GPS unit that comes with it doesn't work in Aust, as in Japan they use a different system, their's updates as you drive or something I think!

So they can be used, but I don't know if it's really worth it in the end! I changed mine to an indash 7" touch screen unit. I've got a program which creates a DVD of your MP3's. I used an 8GB DVD+R and filled it MP3s. Can create a menu, background picture and all, really cool!! Program's called Audio DVD Creator.

i didnt know it was standard... mine came with a screen on top of the dash too... doesnt look standard... looks shoddy... theres a wire running down my dash.. and the monitors kinda stuck on to it.

but it still works tho :rofl: it shows me how fast i'm going (in digital ;)) and its got this lil F1 car which reprasents my car.... its still monitorring me... the only thing is its got the jap map in it still so im driving over oceans and lakes :rofl:

its got a box under the passenger seat... tried to plug in my dvd player but couldnt get it to work...

Scooby_Steve or anyone with the SII factory option TV- can you post a pic of it for me? I just want to see how it looks. Does it just come in place of the double DIN stereo box?

Cheers,

Vijay

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
