anyone know of a good shift light that has a knock warning function aswell...

i'm after something about the size of the gizzmo shift light.

i have a pfc and no hand controller... i will get a h/c eventually but i'd still like to have a pretty instant and unmissable knock light!

Power Excel / Datalogit will allow you to set the knock alert (and AFM, Inj%, etc) at a lower/higher limit.

Link in NZ, make a thing called the "knock link" Jaycar make a cheap shift light.

The math and signal processing done by a knock detector isn't simple, and i would doubt you'd find it "featured" in with another product like a shift light.

Trick!

I know a few ppl that wont move away from PFC's purely, due to their obsession with knock readings. Have you used one Trent?

i use a far superior product on all my tuning; http://tunertools.com/proddetail.asp?prod=GZM%2DG0001

i have tried nearly all the knock monitoring devices on the market (including knock box) and feel strongly that the locally made GIZZMO is the best. It does not however suit your requirements.... unless you wanna leave it installed :D

by far the worst is those chassis ear things :) i bought a few sets hoping to get away with it but nah no way... def no good.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
