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.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
