You can use the factory screen through the use of a video converter such as "navtv," but as Adam said I wouldn't bother. The resolution and the type of screen that the OEM navigation systems in these cars use isn't well suited to display the info from the CAMP2. Especially when you tally up the amount of money for equipment and labor to get it to run on the OEM screen with the added sensors it just wouldn't be sensible.

Edit: A screen set up like this in the stock G35 spot would look nice with the HKS CAMP2

As for monitering AFR, the only way to do it with the Camp2 ends up being very expensive - all in between all the sensors, etc needed to moniter it, it's in the $2k neighborhood, screen not included
$2k? If I have fcon is, $550 for the main unit, a lil more for the is connection. I thought ur previous post said a/f is read through stock sensors? What is needed to where u believe it would cost 2k to monitor af with camp2? The ark af sensor is a couple hundred, would this bit work?

all the stock sensors will tell you is narrowband 02 voltage, it won't tell you AFR..wideband afr is done exclusively through the Knock Amp (sold separately). I've sold a couple already to Evo customers, so I'm talking from first hand experience

If you have the F-Con V-Pro with the CAMP2 F-Con connection harness, you don't need anything else. I just confirmed it with HKS USA, the V-Pro will be able to pick up the A/F and would be monitored through the CAMP2.

I'm not sure what other features are being discussed besides A/F but there is no other way to monitor A/F with the CAMP2 unless you have a V-Pro. If you don't have a V-Pro, the only other way to monitor using an HKS product would be the AFK.

I think there is some confusion here. What I meant was that if you do not have a V-Pro, there is no way to monitor A/F for the CAMP2. If you want to monitor A/F using an HKS product but you don't have V-Pro for your CAMP2, the only solution is to get the AFK. The CAMP2 can only pick up A/F from the knock amp that comes with the V-Pro and is plugged into the F-Con harness. I think what you're saying is that you can use the knock amp from an AFK to the CAMP2? - But the thing is that you need the V-Pro harness for the CAMP2 so how would you connect the knock amp to the CAMP2 without a V-Pro harness? If you have a F-Con IS the IS still uses a V-Pro harness and you can take the knock amp from the AFK to hook it up that way but that defeats the whole purpose of purchasing an AFK. From what HKS is telling me, if you don't have V-Pro, there is no way to monitor A/F.

OK,

So from what I gather from Andy, the following would work to read A/F and boost:

1. FCon-is/F-con vpro
2. HKS Camp2
3. Fcon harness for camp 2
4. Boost sensor and harness for camp2
4. AFK
5. A/F sensor and harness

MSRP together this is around $1900. Is this correct?

I guess it would be a lot cheaper to just get a standalone wideband and defi boost guage/sensor?

Was looking into this a little more lately...in the documentation it mentions that the end user has the ability to switch maps on the fly...I'm assuming these maps have to be unlocked which would then render the navigator useless ?...is this correct ?

I just got mine. Easy install. But, I'm waiting for some other AV stuff before I rip the dash out and make it permanent.



AF/Learn is a little off with the 7th injector. And, I'm not sure where the ECU gets its temp readings for the intake.
Otherwise, I'm liking it so far. Should be very complete once all the sensors are in. We'll see...

I hear the FCon VPro has some sort of 2 step launch feature, do you know how this works if you have the VPro installed?

What optional parts did you get with the CAMP2?

GTM said additional wiring may be needed but I guess I wanted a little more detail. I will ask Shariff thanks!

Finally hooked up... Kenwood KOS-L702 to a KOS-V500 which the CAMP2 hooks into....

Great bit of kit!
