Hey guys , just recently I've purchased a r33 nismo mfd cluster

it's the one with the LCD screen in the middle google that shit

I was going to do the proper install with the oem epsom computer

like the r34 gtr display in the center

but just wondering if I can tap the Apexi fc hand controller LCD display to the cluster

would be cool and easy to see don't care if it's black an white just wanting to know

if it's posible

cheers guys

there is no off the shelf solution, you could buy datalogit and hack up that to allow your own communcation to the powerfc

or you could get FC tune or one of other home brew apps and use them but they are very "raw" in development apps

rx7forums has the main dev guys for powerfc front-ends

all in all, i wouldnt bother

hks camp looks spot on for what you want

but it wont come cheap and wont speak to the powerfc

hey i just looked up the hks camp i dont like the layout of it

i dont no :D

i would realy preferr if i canhad the hand controller screen there

is there any other computer that will work with the apexi fc

cheers paul

nope, there is none

you would have to get FC Tune / one of the custom FC apps that rx7 guys have done or write your own

either sound like a lot of work and time / effort. you can cut up the physical hand controller (pics in the Powerfc faq in my sig) and this may work also. it should fit in the display as well, but you wont need their screen and youll be stuck with the PFC screen instead

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 馃槵 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 馃槄
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 馃ぃ, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
