You have to physically change the unit out and even then there's no guarantee that the same cables are used.

I've also got a JDM IS350 (Also in NZ). The jap nav unit is unable to be changed to English. Only options are replacing with nz/au factory unit or flyaudio / Roadrover etc unit. I went with the Roadrover unit, some wiring mods are necessary, but it's not a major.
