Guest steve982 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Hi to all at Supra MkIV Owners Club! Although I have been driving various Supras over the last 6 yrs, I have now treated myself to an Imported 94 model, I love it to pieces and think it looks and sounds terrific! It is however fitted with a host of extras that I cannot tune (I.e. Tv, DVD player, Sat nav) owing to all instruction manuals being in Japanese. I have been told by Panasonic that this system cannot be used in this country........Is this true? A channel expander has been suggested for the stereo system, but my local dealer told me these are not worth fitting as they only add one more station and the reception is very poor. Has any one else had these problems?....and if so, what is the solution? I would love to be able to use all these things without having to go to the expense of ripping everything out and starting again! Any help that anyone can give would be much appreciated!

turbonut Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Just imagine all those holidays you can have in Japan and never get lost On a serious note though, very frustrating. I brought a mobile when I was a student in greece a few years ago, 3 months after buying it get back to blighty, couldnt unlock it from network. Had to bin it Most annoying. sympathise with you and hope you get it sorted out soon m8 Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 The TV tuner will not be usable. The DVD player may also not work (regions), but even then the text on screen will be in Japanese. The same applies to the radio (channel expanders do work but the frequency range is very limited). With the price of CD/MP3 players these days I'd just swap it and have something you can use PS: Welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
