NITO Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Hopefully this'll appear more like the jet fighter effect I was looking for last time as opposed to the commercial aircraft Jet fighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Walker Posted December 16, 2002 Share Posted December 16, 2002 Nice one, is that both the Defi HUDs you've got there? Gaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NITO Posted December 16, 2002 Author Share Posted December 16, 2002 Gaz, Yup. The one on the left is the boost and turbo timer (it adjusts the idle time according to how much stick you've been giving it) and has a peak boost function, and the one on the right is the speed in mph (thanks to the dongle) it'll time a 1/4 mile run, has a trip timer, odometer/trip, clock (to replace the one which the water temp replaced) and revs. Rgds Nito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GavinL Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 So how paranoid are you when all the needles are moving around? Serious question, how do you make sense of all that information, is it better to know what is going on or assume it is all okay (which it normally is).

FaithStalker Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE HUD THING!!!! yes i know the above is in caps - but I WANT THAT!!! i really do!!!! can you see it in the daytime?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NITO Posted December 17, 2002 Author Share Posted December 17, 2002 Thanks guys. Gavin, I glance at them from time to time, but as they all flag up programmable visual and audible warnings its obvious if something is amiss. It's especially useful for diagnostics as I can go for a run it'll record upto 3 minutes worth of information and I can then play it all back and see at what revs and boost everything is happening such as EGT's, fuel press, oil temps etc. I prefer to know what's going on so that you can catch potential problems in their early stages especially when experimenting and tuning. It's saved my Subaru three times from certain engine damage, once with a blown air flow meter, once for head gasket, and once for a damaged boost vacuum pipe over the 4 years I've had it. FaithStalker, You can see it perfectly in the day as it dims automatically with the lights on, it's something that's hard to imagine from these pics, it really has to be seen in the flesh. The Speedo is much clearer than the oe one and much easier to look at when the turbo is in and the same with the boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithStalker Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 and where can i get them from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GavinL Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Do you have a picture of your dash during the day, I would be interested in gauge positions for my own car. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DArby Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 The Defi stuff looks cool - is it all in KMH though ?? Dean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavinL Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 Originally posted by NITO Hi Gavin, I'll get some done, it's always dark when I get in from work!! Nito Thanks. I was thinking about putting a gauge roughly where the dimmer knob is on the dash, have you tried that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NITO Posted December 17, 2002 Author Share Posted December 17, 2002 DArby, It comes in KM/h and Mph, the VSD II (speed/revs) is switchable for both kmh and mph, the Sports VSD (loads of features) as fitted to my Supe is only available in KM/h although as the car is a J-spec and the frequency has been converted it reads mph even though the symbol says km/h if that makes sense. I'll have to look into disabling the K part of the symbol if its poss. Nito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DArby Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 It is the sport one i like - looks very pretty. Unfortunately UK car so thats a bit of a non starter possibly My wallet was already starting to burn... Dean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NITO Posted December 17, 2002 Author Share Posted December 17, 2002 Dean, It can be fitted to a uk car, it just means that you need to fit a dongle in line to the vsd as opposed to before the speedo. Nito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithStalker Posted December 17, 2002 Share Posted December 17, 2002 ...and how easy is the fitting for a complete dong like me ??? ( i have a jspec) i still havnt seen what it looks like in the daytime - that maybe a crucial factor, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
