I've heard that the V8 soarer has a japanese voice that comes with the emv. so is this true? ive been informed that you can change the whole emv format into english, but if you leave it, does this japanese voice constantly speak out once in a while or what?

There is no japanese voice with the EMV.

Never heard a Japanese voice in mine, but I have heard a quiet voice over my shoulder once or twice.

You can change the Japanese into English with something called the 'Full Vlad'. Search on 'Vlad mod' and there you go

To change Japanese voices from the EMV you should change your imaginary friends.

They only had a voice from late '96 onwards.

Before that it was all telepathic.

As in Japanese writing to English.

The Vlad change does not does voices

The Vlad conversion also only does the audio functions. It does NOT do a full conversion so functions like the calendar, trip/fuel computer and all other EMV screens are all still in Japanese. Also, from some reports Vlad may be moving to the US, plus it seems the only bloke who's done the Vlad conversion for club members has completely lost the plot lately. So in other words..........Good luck!

I am now doing the TV conversions (working on two atm), I will be looking into the Radio conversions after xmas.

If anyone is interested in doing a conversion feel free to contact me.

I don't have time to do hundreds of them but I will be doing some for members. I am also happy to help any members wishing to do there own.

Cheers

Good luck Damian with the TV conversions :-)

The Vlad TV conversion is great upgrade to have, however, the old Soarer TV tuners normally require repair before conversion can start.

Been there - done that ;)

Yes they do, not only the error 12 fix but about 40 caps need to be replaced as well.

There is a lot of time that goes into repairing the damaged caused by the leaking caps, and given the damage if they are not fixed soon they wont be able to be fixed.

I saw one the other day that didn't have the caps replaced and it still worked. The quality of sound and picture was very poor, perhaps this was why. I also doubt it would be working for much longer.

I'm interested in getting the TV conversions done but I haven't see any TV conversions done on a Soarer before.

So I don't know how good the picture will be.

I also got the radio conversions done.

The picture is great depending on the area you live in and the quality of your EMV screen. On the Gold Coast my TV reception is intermittent but in Brisbane it is really good.
