I bought the original catalog of 1999 Nissan Elgrand. I'm waiting for delivery.
Some photos from the catalog auction.

Strange thoughts came to mind.
I had already decided that the tractor would remain in our family until the end.
Vladivostok is full of interior and exterior parts from Elgrands that were less fortunate.
I thought, try to find, buy all possible "goodies" that were ever installed at the factory, such as those that I do not have:
1. Automatic door or door closer
2. Clock.
3. Curtains.
4. Automatic footrest for the passenger door.
5. Winter equipment (2nd battery, radiator curtain, muffler flap)and also, everything that I can find in the ordered catalog..
This spring I will finish the body work - the final painting of the car.
I will work on the interior.

Raptor is a good thing, but in the current situation in Russia it is expensive... I think I will use tinted epoxy primer.Due to the unfavourable conditions you Van is subject too i would have a go at painting it with Raptor Paint.

The tinted epoxy primer is excellent, you can add epoxy grit to it for texture....and if you use a roller to apply it the finish will be a stippled effect.

To create a shagreen effect (like a raptor), it is enough to reduce the pressure in the spray gun.The tinted epoxy primer is excellent, you can add epoxy grit to it for texture....and if you use a roller to apply it the finish will be a stippled effect.

Hello everyone)
Diving into the depths of the Internet, I found an interesting modification of the Elgrand E50.
Autech Royalline.
It looks expensive and rich for a 1997 wagon)

Ringing greetings!
Here winter has become winter) in the morning -37.
I bought the original radio, which was installed on the Elgrand - Clarion. Since I like to listen to music on vinyl and CD, this is an option for me, I will enjoy CD. To listen via Bluetooth, I will buy a Bluetooth unit and solder it into the circuit on the AM wave.In general, meet the Clarion PN-2263G.

P.S. Of course I could buy a Chinese one on Android or something else, but no. Japanese quality...

Musical greetings!!
It was cold on the weekend. Decided to check Clarion.Having sorted out the contacts, I quickly connected it from a car battery charger. Turned it on. Cleaned the laser lens. Connected the speakers. Put in a Led Zeppelin disc and it started playing. Oh, miracle)
Now I need to find the original plugs and the plug for the antenna. I plan to connect a Bluetooth module to the CD changer input. I wonder what will happen.

I've not seen that particular Clarion unit in an Elgrand before. Nice!
The bluetooth is a good idea as should be a better signal than an FM transmitter which I'm using. Tempted to try that myself.

I read the booklet of the edition before 1999. There in the richest configuration there was a Kenwood, then Clarion and then a simple radio. And specifically my Clarion from Elgrand 2001.

There is no navigation. Navigation was in a different package.
Better not to have satnav as didn't work outside of Japan and the screens are very dated now so I think you've got the better configuration.
I look forward to seeing your bluetooth modification

well yeah) for 1997 it was cool) and even now, for a car manufacturer to make so many modifications, I don't see that even in modern Japanese cars. ... after all, the golden years of the 80-90s of Japanese cars.The Dreamcast console sitting on the backseat
I did have a GameCube in mine for a while when the kids were younger.
That catalogue looks fun!
