Hello Ron,

Thank you for your interest in 370ZTune and our product lines. As one of the oldest and most experienced distributors of JDM products, I am confident that this is an inquiry that we can assist you with.

In regards to your questions, I honestly do not recommend this piece for you 370Z. The reality is that this camera & harness kit was intended for the JDM spec Nissan Z34 370Z. We cannot guarantee compatibility and fitment of this JDM spec item for your USDM spec 370Z. If you choose to do a self-install, the instructions (if they are included) will be written in Kanji, Kata kana, & Hiragana.

My apologies that I was not able to assist you further with this. The truth is, we offer this product as a convenience and a favor to the community. OEM factory parts are not our specialty. We specialize in ordering, transporting, and distributing high-end aftermarket JDM products. Honestly, if you are interested in a camera kit I am confident that a reputable custom auto & audio shop can install a custom kit for equal or lesser value. People do it all the time and so far the results have proven to work well.

Thank you for your time and please feel free to contact us anytime at your earliest convenience should you come across any additional questions or concerns.

All the Best,
Hunter

Hello Z-Drivers, i am new in this forum. I only want to mention that i ordered a 370z roadster. And in the contract of purchase a rearview camera is included/mentioned. I first was a little bit amazed cause i didnt read anything about it before. But then i deside not to disclaim.

I am just waiting for my Z Roadster and i am bursting with curiosity.

I orderd the car so early there wasnt a detailed feature list available. And in the german price list nothing about a rearview camera is mentioned. So I think its a mistake. (IT08/nav)

Greetings from Switzerland. This Forum is great !

From Nissan Corp.

"According to the Accessory Planner, it will be offered MY11 (model year) release this summer."

Looks like a little longer wait guys.

antbear should be in the clear.

I've done so much research that ive ripped my entire car apart, installed a factory OEM camera, and connected all the wires that I believed to be necessary.(made up my own wires, no harness) I got the camera to work, I just cant fiqure out what wire will trigger the nav to switch to CAM AUX INPUT until you go out of reverse then switch back to the last mode.

with that said, yes this kit will work, I dont care what that 370tune guy says, the kit WILL WORK. it is the same kit used on all nissan's and infiniti's, same plugs, same units, same everything.

the downside? I dont think our 370z comes with a steering angle sensor (could be wrong). if thats the case, the lines that appear on the camera will not move right or left with your steering wheel.

Cjanik.............

Thanks for the reassuring comments. Next week I will know if all that Japanese yen was well spent.

Do you believe your system would work like it should if you had the OEM wiring harness or that box?

yes I think my system would work if I had that box.
Whats happening is the box sends voltage to the NAV when you go in reverse which tells it to switch to rear cam input. when you leave reverse, it tells it to go back. it also does the lines and powers the camera and many other things, but I dont need that as i've got everything to work without it.

ive found 5v goes to pin 40 of the NAV unit (not documented on our 370z but documented on all nissan/infiniti backup camera capable vehicles) but i cant get it to work. might have to trigger something else at the same time that I am unaware of.

Rhood, what about these steering lines does your unit display them and do they move with the steering wheel??

Sorry for overlooking your post. I just noticed your question. Cost was $562 with shipping included. Here is a another posting of the link.

japanparts.com : PARTS DATABASE

BTW..........What happened to the AAM Competition 370TT thread that was promised from AAM? Here is the statement made in AAM's last post: "I am closing this thread (and then deleting it shortly) and I will be starting an official AAM 370TT thread in the next day or so." Did you get your car back in great TT modified working order????

If I have overlooked the link I would appreciate someone posting it.

Thanks..................

Hi Antbear,

Did you get the instruction manual with the factory backup camera set? If so, could you share it with us in the form of a .PDF file?

Thank you,

spryor

Antbear any chance you were driving up I-44 over near the Dell call center next to the river on Monday around 12:30? Saw a yellow 370 and it made the 4th 370 I've seen.

That was not me. When I go to that area I'm usually driving my pickup to the hazardous waste recycle center.

I have seen only one other yellow 370Z. Someone who works in one of those shops which line Western between Wilshire and 63rd drives it. That one is completely stock looking.....or at least no exhaust upgrade, fog light.....things that can be seen on the outside.

I see a lot of 350Z's but hardly ever see a 370. What color are you driving?
