hey guys, have you ever seen gauges that work on the HU of a LCD screen from the radio? ive seen a picture on the forums a while back and now i cant seem to find it. the guy had VAC/Boost, along with Water Temp....and it looked very convinient. my question is does anyone kno how to hook that up or how it works?

just an idea...

 

I believe the Pioneer AVIC-Z1 will do what you want. Also, the discontinued HKS Camp will do that as well.

 

If you run the HKS F-CON iS as an EMU, you can also do this w/ the right sensors.

 

thanks alot guys for the information....very helpful. my next question is im plannin to get a LCD head unit.....how hard would it be to replace the stock head unit along with installing the new one with the brockway r2000? is it as complicated as i think it is or is it cake?

 

Z1 has alot of gauge options, but its mostly angular velocity and speed. It won't read your water temp. I don't find it really that useful, but its very bells and whilstle showy.

 

Look for a thread by KPierson (might be over at my350) - he has something that will display UTEC stuff onto the stock NAVI screen.

Mine displays using Cipher/UTEC/Innovate data on a DigitalWheelz LCD display (car PC)

 

Here is mine:

Basically uses the UTEC logging output to a carputer to a video --> RGB converter to stock Navi screen.

Switching between navi and carputer is done with a KPtechnolgies navi 'OK' bypass module.

 

The Pioneer AVIC's do some gauge stuff including G-force side-to-side and front-to-back. The ScanGaugeII will plug in and display your water temperature and other stuff like error codes.

 

This is mine.
