Chris Rogers Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 gidday - first post - top forum with a LOT of info on this unit had one of these given to me with all the hardware to match it: INFO HERE ON THE UNIT now as you can tell it is a jap one and has a few added extras. TV (Inbuilt )and VICS (traffic radio that is jpn specific) are a few differences. the unit is an 06 version . I have had it along side this one which is a AVIC HD3. the button layout,menus, controls are the same EXCEPT mine is in japanese with japanese maps and the FM radio is out of kilter (JAPAN runs 76.0Mhz-90.0 Mhz onthe FM band - AM is 522-1620.- thats fine for me) I need 87.7 mhz - 107.9 Mhz in 100 khz steps. otherwise they are the same unit. my thinking is the chassis is the same and the soft/firmware is different. it runs a 30Gb toshiba drive same as the Z series you get and I figure a soft/firmware swap would fix 99% of it. apart from swapping the FM Front end out for the local one what else am I up for. been reading about firmware updates and the HDD images - am I on the right track here? freebies are good and if I can find a HD3 image and firmware update I'd be a lot happier ---------- Chris - Brisbane Australia.
