Andy asked me to do a quick review of my Greddy intelligent informeter. (non touch)

It displays some of the info available through the OBD2 port under the drivers side kick panel and remains plugged into it. I mounted mine in the cubby hole in the pov pack "couldnt afford a tv".

It can display pie graphs, needle and numerical data of various types, of course most or the timing and injector data isn't accurate on my car as the emanage is changing it after this.

I would recommend this for logging all aspects of the car, but it is discontinued now,(replaced by the touch version) hence the cheap $290 price I paid for a new one. Touch has a lot more options too, so ive read, like resetting cel's etc. as well as a larger screen.

I think it displays about 15 different things like injector duty and cool crap like that. Different cars show different data. This one displays the dtc but doesnt reset it like the touch apparently does.

Thats exactly why I bought it. Ive pushed the motor a bit and I want info on how its handling it before I crank it further. Dont want to find the limit of these engines just yet as I havent got the funds for the 3.5 block yet. Hopefully cooling the engine helps with oil and piston temps.

Dyno day at RE customs on Saturday if I can make it, same dyno I usually run on so it should give me a good indication which way im heading with the tune.

Do you know if the touch can display error codes/descriptions (I am presuming that one cannot)?

They both can.

that was on my "to get" list.. but a powerFC is above it atm. :blush:

Won't work with PFC, only stock ECU(or variants). PFC hand controller does a similar job.

I have one too. A touch might be crap to use when mounted behind the wheel due to lack of tacticle feel when flicking through screens?

I'm now waiting for a non-touch version to show up from ImportMonster...

For $240 shipped the nerd within couldn't say no.

the later Itouch outputs a signal......if you have a screen in your car you would be able to hook it up.

    • I left that life behind me. After so many rod bearings... (Had quite a few M3s)
    • Both Coils and Loom are OEM from the dealer.  I have not tried the Chinesium AFM. I Might today. Will get a timing gun to check this, to be honest I been meaning to check the timing because everything timing related is as the car came from Japan, being set by whatever shop did the timing 1.5k miles ago. I believe it is running rich all the time actually, as the pops and bangs feels like unburnt mixture in the exhaust. But I will check the pump and regulator. PS also new OEM fuel filter is in during the maintenance before these slew of misfires started. Cas been placed on the same position as it was before removed, same markings that were left by the shop that did the timing before I bought and imported the car. Thank you all for the responses so far by the way. Seems like I need to pay more attention to CAS condition and timing. Will check on that and report back here.
    • Buyer beware. Assume everyone is dodgy on the internet unless proven otherwise.
    • Try unplugging the smaller plug from the controller under the parcel shelf. right side when standing at the boot (HICAS controller). It's sort of saved me from the car killing me (HICAS spazzing out),
    • Been looking at the MK60 too but looking at a few options for my shitbox
