Default 7" LCD Gauge?

this may seem like a silly question, but when i install my GTM stage 2 tt
i do not want visibly pod gauges on the driver side.
instead i would like to go ninja if i can

i have a 2008 350z nismo, and in my center console above the radio, i have a storage space that is hidden by a door. see picture below


i would like to know if anyone knows of a 7 inch fully digital lcd monitoring system that will tell me my boost and engine vitals as opposed to pod gauges.
this way i could tuck the screen in there and close the door and no one would know till i dropped the hammer.

example lcd


thanks in advance

I'm no expert on setups like this, but there has to be a way - some sort of tuner program, EMS add-on sorta thing? Or possibly a CarPC setup that would have engine vitals programmed in to show on the screen? Sounds like a cool idea.

HKS camp 2, lots of money each..and any screen you can find on ebay.. done.

OR use your Android phone stuck to the windsheild glass like a garmin and theres an app for 4 bucks in the market called Torque.

You could easily just mount two gauges in pods in that console. I think. But I have a nav so im not sure. Also, I have mounted my oil temp guage to the underdash on the right hand side. You can easily see it when driving. My wideband is mounted in front of my analog speedometer, since i just use my digital speedo.

So is there a cable you need to purchase for that android app?

This part I thought was funny.

On a second note good idea and it would be a cool setup. so I searched Google "HKS CAMP 2 350z" and found you are not the first to think of this. http://www.gtz-uae.com/showthread.ph...led-on-my-350Z

Haltech software on a car pc displayed on your 7" screen would be better than camp2 IMO.

Can you still buy camp2 new anyway?

Kind of outdated, but:


The problem with having only this set up is that carPC's have delays in starting and can be flaky, and then you don't have gauges.

Not 7" but you can make it work with a little modification. http://www.zeitronix.com/Products/dashdaq/dashdaq.shtml
