Just wondering if anyone has one instatted in any car, but particularly a RS4 Stagea.

I've got a few questions

1. How many press/temp sensors can you add?

2. Does it come with any pressure sensors or anything standard?

3. What exactly does it display strait out of the box?

4. I basically want to display, oil press, water temp, boost pressure, knock. Is this possible with this unit, or is there a better option?

I got a Blitz r-vit TypeII in my r32 skyline.

It plugs into the consult port near the fuses.

It only shows ECU details.

Doesnt have any external sensors, only reads ecu information. (no different to plugging a laptop with consult cable)

Displays all sensors which the ecu reads;

water temp, afm voltage, o2 voltage, injector duty cycle, ignition timing, battery voltage, speed, rpm

In regards to question 4, you are after a single unit which can display external sensors for water temp, oil press, boost press etc.

Only option ive found on the internet is Defi Link - http://www.nengun.com/defi/link-display

Although after buying all the sensors etc, it will set you back close to $1k :)

So does it display knock values? I know the computer sees them but I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.

A Blitz unit looks like the pick of the ones on nengun for me. The Blitz MMD might be a goer with the boost sensor, included. Not sure on the differences between all the different units. The MMD with another pressure sensor would probably do the trick.

I'd go ask at my local supplier, but that's AutoBahn, they wouldn't have a clue.

Why the hell didn't the stag come with an oil pressure guage anyway!!! It doesn't already have a sensor does it?

only shows ignition timing degree value thats all.

Also, the blitz r-vit only works on standard ecu's. If you have a powerFC it wont work.

If you're using a standard ecu, they have knock protection anyways and will switch to safe map if anything goes wrong.

The blitz r-vit also works with chipped standard ecu's such as nistune (where you can tune the knock map to protect car etc)

Else the powerfc, i believe, shows knock reading and flashing light but thats all you get. No safe map switching as standard ecu

there was a guy on here called newKleer or something like that

he made a 4 chan temp monitor - have a search .. looked pretty good

that was mearcat. i think thread for it is still in group buy forum, probably closed by now.

nope, consult doesnt give u knock reading, neither does it have oil temp or oil pressure or boost.

I've got an Emanage, not sure what sort of knock protection it has. Are there any tricky guage mounting options for a stagea with a factory tv setup?

you can get 3 guage pods that sit ontop of the dash above the centre vent that look pretty nice

i've also got some guages here if you're looking for some :blush:

the mrs and i are highly interested in gauge mounting position too mate. if yu come up with something that isn't obtrusive, doesn't take away a vent, doesn't block the clock and is still easy enough to see whilst driving, let me know, lol. i'll keep looking and return the favour if you want :blush: how many gauges are you looking at having and what size faces?

you can also get guage plates that mount where the passenger side airbag is, fairly popular in japan but i wouldn't recommend it. you can always mount the guages in the glove box, leave it open when you want to see them and keep it closed when you don't want anyone else too

haha, i could see the passenger airbag thing being pretty disasterous :P

so far we're thinking 1 near the a pillar, 2 in the ash tray (not quite too sure how we're gonna achieve that mean feat, but we'll see how we go) and the 4th one in the glove box... still early days yet though. noone makes cars to hold gauges!

What guages heve you got MIKE?

I was thinking about making up a panel that covers the ash tray and cig lighter to take 3 or 4 52-60mm guages. Then wire a cig lighter plug into the centre consol. I want atleast 2 guages, oil press and boost. If i can fit more in I'll also put in a oil temp and water temp.

If i could wire a switch between 3 sensors I'd have the temp guage so it can display water, oil and trans temps. Not sure if it's possible, but I don't see why not

If I was to get something made up, to hold guages in the area below the din panels, over the cig lighter and ash tray, would people be interested in getting one also?

What i'm planning is to make up a mould to fit the area perfectly. Then lay in a few layers of carbon fibre, once it's set I'll trim them up. If a few people would like them, or i couldn't get it looking good, I'd get the carbon fibre work done professionally. But by machining up a nice mould it should make things much easier either way.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
