The GT-R screen -- its known as the Multi Function Display (MFD) -- isn't "pop up": its fixed. The screen you might be referring too in the GTT is the naviation option that some GT-Ts have.

DAMSXC: If by radio "not working" you mean you can't tune it to Australian stations, is because you need a frequency converter. As for the screen not displaying DVDs, does it work with the handbrake on?

Then its working correctly. You are not meant to be able to view DVDs whilst the car is in motion. As already mentioned, you can get around that by fooling the DVD/TV into thinking the handbrake is always on.

Hi Guys,

I got a 99 R34 GT-T, and the in-dash display won't pop up. The upper lid can be lifted by hand, and I can see (probably) the LCD panel etc, but they won't lift. My mate could read Japanese (Kanji, I think) and I can figure out what the buttons say. However, some ppl reckon that it's the pully mechanism thats not working. but, since I cant see anything happening when I press the buttons (Open/Close etc), I am wondering whether it could be electrical? Any help is appriciated. Also, since I live in SE suburbs, Victoria, someone mentioned that there is a guy in Rowille who has fixed one of these...

Thanks

    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
