I'm delaying my automatic transmission oil change as I can't decide which to choose... Nissan says that the Nissan Matic J is the best... but it's expensive. Uncle google told me that the Zs sold in Japan market were filled with Idemitsu products (semi synthetic). Some happy users shared info that changing transmission oil to a German Ravenol J2/S oil (fully synthetic) is a good idea. The above two are my puzzle... Can anyone share info/comment which to choose and why. If there are other automatic transmission fluids you can recommend, please share your opinion. Will appreciate any info. Edit: My mileage is low ~25k (if it's true). Z is a '07 HR.

What you need to upgrade your 350z Audio System
mrCD replied to Rob_Quads's topic in I.C.E & Electronics
Solved! Thanks to Buster's topic. Have any one had problems with connecting/programming of the steering wheel controls? My loom has three wires (white, red and black) which I've connect accordingly to the Key1, Key2 and the black wire. Every programmed button (ie. volume up) acts as if it was programmed to change the track/station to the next... The learning application in the HU shows that all, apart of the phone pick up, buttons were programmed correctly. And in the end they do the same action. -

Update: Has anyone have an idea what to do with the Audio jacks from the ICT loom (Red/White and Yellow/Black) when staying with the OEM speakers? The HU hasn't got sockets for such RCAs... Picture borrowed from Aftershox's awesome guide. -
Very nice! Enjoyed watching and waiting for more.

Big thanks. Two days of struggling with the puzzle and nothing, two hours here and half of my problems solved. Thanks! Two more questions are on my mind right now: 1. Where to get the wire colour coding diagram for a Bose 2007? 2. What to do with this when I stay with my old Bose speakers? -
Not a huge fan of the mesh... Can't wait to see the lip mounted.

Thanks for the info. Only one cable? What about Key2? Which cable should be connected with the Key1 wire? -

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking about soldering them toghether (like here). Do you know where to get the colour code diagram for a 2007 Z? What if I want to stay with OEM Bose speakers? Negative, no jack input, but there are two Key1 and Key 2 cables, was wondering about soldering them together, but I'm not sure will it work and how to check which cable is the correct one. Any clues? -

What you need to upgrade your 350z Audio System
mrCD replied to Rob_Quads's topic in I.C.E & Electronics
Well... I believed... It was supposed to be fairly easy, but now I know that I've definitely underestimated it... Got the stereo (photos attached, knobs are taken off) and looms (pics attached), but have no idea how to connect these two together to make the stereo work. Can anyone tell me how to match these cables to make the stereo work? I've read many installation guides, but they are either for a different car year(pre-lift)/non-bose/lacking in steering wheel controls/harness plug and play/missing pics. My car is a '07 with Bose and steering wheel controls. Going to a guy to have it fixed for me is currently out of the question... the car is incomplete as I'm working on DLRs and some other small things. Help please. -

Thanks for the info. I'll use the same camera. As for the stereo I'm thinking about Quad Core unit with KitKat on board. Got it, thanks. -
From this distance the wing is almost OEM looking. I like it.

What you need to upgrade your 350z Audio System
mrCD replied to Rob_Quads's topic in I.C.E & Electronics
Thanks for the info. That's my goal. Which camera did you use CCD or CMOS? This unit can mirror the camera image, right? -
Great buy! Which cam did you choose? Fitted in the license plate light? CMOS or CCD? What do you think of it? How does the subwoofer work with the unit? Some say this combination doesn't result in good quality,... wondering what that means and what's your opinion. Did you use the sound booster? Much better! Now the background mesh is sharp. What resolution did you guys use?

Thanks, will dig it. Do you remember which adapter worked? Can you share a link? Is there difference in which wire you choose? -

Merry Christmas! I'm thinking about buying this Chinese stereo. Was someone trying to install this in the Z? I believe that it shouldn't be a problem, but I'm not sure about the steering wheel controls... They say that the unit has two pins for supporting steering wheel controls (SW1 and SW2). My question is, is it enough? It appears that (according to How to Connect the ICT/InCarTec Bose Loom) there is not enough cables...but, has anyone tried with this, or similar connector? It looks as if two lines can be enough... :? Oh, one more thing. I know that this unit probably wont even try to compete with most of the branded aftermarket stereos, but I'm not an audiophile, was happy with my Bose stereo, until the CD changer got jammed. I'm considering buying a branded stereo, but only if the above listed wont work as the stock one + reverse camera. My car is equipped with '06 Bose system. Any answers/comments/info will be appreciated. -
Looks good, I like it.

Sweet looking car. I love the non-gold Brembo callipers.

During my trip I saw only two Zeds and one of them was this: BTW, it wasn't me who did the writing on the car. "Wash me..." please? "Sale, only 50 Euro". Looking for the owner with 50€ in my hand. Taken on the 5th of October in Barcelona.
