Can anybody tell me if i buy a import, can you buy the cd drive to change the sat nav to english.. Or is it more involved than that.. Thanks Quote
nurrish Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Welcome If i were you i would set aside a good couple of hours and have a look through the site as it will reveal alot of info for you. Quote
martinmac Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Hi and welcome. If you get an import that hasnt been converted just change out the unit. The guy above has a pretty good solution on sale. ^^^^^ Quote

Not really interested in aftermarket sat nav still would like to keep the original stereo..but just change the cd drive if possible. How much would it cost to just change out the unit?..or would it cost bucks.... Quote
martinmac Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Search posts by Nurrish, his solution is great. It fits into the original screen cubby and the original stereo stays in place. Quote

Saw the one in for sale section..but not to keen on the fm transmitter..cant you just get a uk cd drive to swap for the jap one...??? Quote
martinmac Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 If you really want a birdview I have a dvd drive and a full system for sale. Have a read about the birdview and let me know. The dvd drive doesnt have a disk though but the full system does, Just pm me if you are interested. Quote

AlexZ Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Hi mate and welcome to the site.... As far as I understand chains are meant for life unless theres a problem. They become noisy when faulty but this is very uncommon from what I have read. I also beleive they use the oil from the sump to keep lubed up...So just keep an eye on the oil level and you should be fine... Alexz Quote

Shaun1982 Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Wellcome along mate,be sure to slap up some pictures when youve got yourself a zed Quote
sunset350z Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 don't bother with the import sat nav, it doesn't take UK discs. If you need sat nav then either get an aftermarket set up or buy a UK car with sat nav built in. Even then from what i've read, it isn't very good as you can't type in postcodes. Quote
rich5259 Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 Talking to the Infinity salesman, the current satnav only takes the 1st 4 characters of the post code (ie NN11 will find Daventry) but from April next the new units will support full postcodes, so I guess the Nissan ones will be the same.
