Hi guys,

I just bought an r33 gts-t and it came fitted with a touch screen lcd headdeck. Now some of the writing on this headdeck is japanese however most of it is in English. I have two questions:

1. Is it possible for this head deck to receive reception for australian tv via a booster or converter?? Right now it doesn't pick up any tv reception at all and the guy at autobarn said that it never will.

2. It supposedly came with GPS, but the dvd-rom that was loaded in the headdeck only works for japan. Is it possible to buy an australian dvd rom for australia that would work in my head deck.

The head deck is a no name brand "NDKT-D52" <- only description on it.

Cheers

Matt

Short answer unfortunately is no, and no. See this thread for a discussion on the same topic and a company that can do the TV conversion (at a price....):

Re the GPS, there aren't that many companies that do maps for Aussie, and AFAIK none of them are compatible with the Japanese GPS systems. First step would be to work out who makes the unit (may have to take it out of the dash), and then see if that company does a product for the Aussie market.

If it is a factory fitted GPS unit, it will most likely be made by Clarion or Sony and I'm 99% certain that neither of them do maps for the Aussie market that would be compatible with a JDM system.

Sorry, the GPS DVD is made by Toyota Motor Corp. So i'm guessing it's from a Prado/Landcruiser as these cars come out with the same stuff. I've managed to track down one GPS DVD but it only has maps for America. Plus they do not have a contact for any australian dvds.......

The dvd looks like this one

Err, Toyota, umm, that would have been my.... Nope, wouldn't have guessed that! This one here then:

Judging by some of the other pages that google turned up it looks like a fairly recent unit - 2002/2003 or thereabouts.

Are there any Aussie delivered Toyota or Lexus models which come with a nav option? If so you could try Toyota Aussie, though they may not want to know.

Other option would be one of the Toyota/Lexus owners forums?

That's the one.....almost, looks very very slightly different. Toyota don't have the faintest clue where to start looking, i don't think they have much info on headdecks.

Possibly from the new Prados but can't find anyone who has the disk for it. :confused:

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
