Hands Up all the Aussies

As we are getting to 8 inch screen is the connection wireless?
US version with 9 inch is wireless, on one of their reviews it mention that the sport version with smaller screen was a wired connection. Do we miss out again

Unfortunately we do. It's been confirmed a few times now that the 8" infotainment system does not have wireless CarPlay. Neither versions support wireless Android Auto.

I thought I'd misunderstood.

So my 2019 MR Triton has Android auto but this 2023 Nissan Z doesn't? Are you guys serious?

I'll be honest, that's a bit of a shock.

 

[Ballast Scorcher]

My clear mistake was reading things that just aren't there. I assumed - as it's top of the line and MY23 - that it just was wireless as is my base model MY19 triton that I purchased new. I really, really like the feature and this has shaken me. Especially after knowing we aren't getting the larger screen

All Z trims have Android Auto, it's just not wireless.

All Z trims have Android Auto, it's just not wireless.

Man, I didn't even know there was a wired version of Android Auto.

I'll be damned if I'll have more connectivity in my damn base model ute than I will this borderline 6 figure top of the line sports car.

No wonder we're still pushing ahead with the release down here, theres no flapping trimmings on our model at all.

This is just as bad as having a damn old school AUX cable dropped around the cabin. 90k is big enough money for this feature yo be included!

It's like Nissan has said. You wanted a 90s inspired jdm car! You got it! ???

For now will just get a wireless adapter, down track might be able to replace the head unit as no other controls seem to be linked to it.

Ha, that's gold!

Man, I respect the problem solving approach, but let's get down to brass tacks here; this is a 90 thousand dollar top trim 23 model here and we cant be seriously talking about replacing the head unit for a feature that quite frankly, it should have already?!

I can't believe I didn't click onto this sooner.

I did have a quick squiz and sure enough, it seems the Supra has the same let down. Seriously, wtf.

Have I mentioned my 32k MY19 MR Triton has wireless car play ? This car is 3 times the value and shouldn't be found wanting comparing the two for features!!

The Supra here is even worse, no CarPlay whatsoever without a fairly complicated hack.

Hello! I recently became the owner of the Nissan 350Z.
I plan to buy a head unit on Android OS, but before that, I want to study in detail all the aspects, difficulties, and possible consequences of such an undertaking.
I have a 2013 model.
Maybe someone already installed it, please share your experience, I will be very grateful.
Many THX)
Maybe you know?

I think you mean Android Auto isn't available without a hack.

The Supra was upgraded to come standard with wireless CarPlay late last year.

Argh that's good. My experience was with the 2020 version.
