Nodalmighty Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 Very cool addition to the oem unit. I can see that catching on with people who have the software to run it. No software required. Has its own data capture unit. They talk via serial bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Could one of these screens be configured to show a gauge for example, with the output from a syvecs s6? Maybe the gauge could be selectable via cal switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nodalmighty Posted November 10, 2016 Author Share Posted November 10, 2016 I also have no clock in my Supra so I'm going to re-engineer my old billet housing I used for my LCD Monochrome unit to fit there with one of these screens. My steering wheel will have an encoder wheel as well as a 2.8" amoled screen which will be used to control what is displayed where. Then there is the in car PC and the 24" LED monitor but that's a story for another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Looking good dude. Think we'll be bouncing ideas off soon enough when my new toys arrive. Be great to see your setup running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delboy52 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 That's the first time I've seen that! How on earth have I missed it??.. Looking forward to having it fitted on Sunday http://www.nod-land.co.uk/ForumStuff/tacho2.jpg Ignore the blotches and weird corners as it still has the screen protection peeler on but you get the idea (It's also not as saturated and the colours are crisp, my camera has done this). I can display anything on this within reason. This is Delboy52's graphics for his autobox display. When in Manual mode it shows gear as it's hooked up the S1 and S2 solenoids. When in Auto it shows the current selector position and which gear map you are using. Where is also a Supra logo at fist boot. I'm also looking into a white EL back lighting pad. I've found a 10cm round EL pad which can be cut to shape. Just got to design somehting for Eric now. The needle is also off an MR2 which is bigger than a Supra one.

Here's my one that I cut to shape for mine using EL panels. You can have a closer look at it when I drop by on Sunday.

Delboy52 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Oled screen graphics are my 5th design as some features were changed, added or dropped. The screen needs to be fairly clutter free also, so it can be glanced at whilst driving and understood easily. Lyndon sourced the kit, put everything together and programmed the code to make it work, this weekend it should all get fitted. The El panels are my 2nd attempt and I got it right this time so doesn't flicker like before. Doesn't tolerate dimmers or rips in the El panels.

Noz Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Well I love the project, I'd love to consider something like this for my own. Will definitely be hitting Nod up for info on this setup once its running so I can get help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) How to make a mole hill into a mountain. I've rebuilt the looms for my rear light and separated the two rear brake lights for independent fogs / brake lights. So I used new more modern 6 way water proof connectors which didn't fit though the holes in the bulkhead, Mistake one. So I worked out that if I cut the holes to 26mm the grommets would still work. I bought a hole cutter off ebay and assumed as it's off ebay it will be a blunt as a nuns chuff, mistake two. I now have a 26mm hole and a 28mm hole and the grommet falls through the latter. Can I find sleeved grommets in 30/32mm, can I bollocks. The answer came in the form of 28mm cable glands which have a outer bore of 28mm with 32mm lip and nut and clamp down to 16mm (the loom diameter). The lessons here are, Measure the holes first and don't assume everything off ebay is junk. Despite all this I now have the ultimate thru bulkhead loom solution (plus 8 more for use else where on the car). But I didn't make it easy for myself. Lyndon.

Nodalmighty Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 Slight change of plan with the 2J, As the turbo is a no show I've decided to go BMW M3 E46 ITB's and a HDG Performance 6 - 2 - 1 exhaust manifold. Should sound nice and make about 250 flywheel which the shimmed up auto should cope with ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 That will sound fantastic do you know which dbw throttle pedal you're using? Whifbitz supplies a Toyota one which bolts straight in to the supra, probably for an sc430. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GS300/GS430 I think, Big Mark asked about it before and we tracked it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Must be GS430 then, looks like it has true DBW. GS300 vvti has the same crap hybrid system with a throttle cable that the Supra vvti has as stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 I'll be using a normal cable with an adaption. Not a fan of DBW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time a 7.0 stoke steel crank and forged H section rods have turned up for crazy cheap money. Ho Hum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
