not a new thing, i had a similar thing in my old subaru... good for checking whats going on if you've got a spare two hunge to throw around

 

[CMF_climberjoel]

ha yeah fair point about the 'spare' two hundred, as this does not exist id probably be better of spending it somewhere else.

Hows the ST going smidge? sorted all the gremlins? and the 1.6 K11 project?

theres a group buy going on <a href="http://forum.pulsar.org.au/showthread.php?t=79220">PGA</a> and <a href="http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ecutalk-Consult-Lcd-V2-Di-t228314.html">SAU</a> which has more info/feedback. a bit over 60 of this first lot of v2 displays have sold in last few weeks since they were available.

you can get it for the same price as the group buys by providing a link to your micra profile when you order.

damn, thats a ugly looking thing eh.

 

[CMF_NewKleer]

yeah its made for functionality, compact (fits inside din slot) and looking fairly stock, not so much for aesthetics or rice factor. also the actual units have black buttons, not red/white.

I'd pay more if it didn't look like the **** Smith electronics kit I had when I was a kid

 

[CMF_fred]

I might get one...

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

Bahahaha. Freds allowed cause he's the diy king

 

[CMF_fred]

gez, its already built, just plug it in.... I'll be getting it firstly it gives info like duty cycle and 0-60 and stuff. oh alright, it will match the other jiffy boxes in and around the dash!

 

[CMF_NewKleer]

some people might be able to pay more, but that requires everyone pay more (because they all have to be made the same). most people want it for the functionality and information it gives rather than how pretty it is. the enclosure isnt glued together, so you can easily take it apart and then make your own custom enclosure for it.

 

[CMF_fred]

hay, I'm sold... maybe stick under the dash and run a 7" lcd screen with 12V pc running xp on a flash card in place of the standard dash... maybe thats overkill?

 

[smidge]

they are pretty useful if your car isn't running 100%

was able to diagnose an AFM fault on my old car cause cause its voltage input to the ECU (and then display) would drop to 0v every now and then
