Hey SAU

I would like to start by saying I love my 'line.

I have the mod bug. Always happens, no surprise here. I class it as my hobby :P.

So the reason for MFD is I stumbled up the Nismo limited edition LCD Gauge cluster. Holy F*** anywhere from $800 upward is crazy. And that is if you can find one. Is it made out of panda or something?

So then me being a tight ass and looking for something similar but for fraction of the cost found the ARC MFD2. Pretty cool little thing, but still not cheap at $400.

Then there is always the HKS camp2, Epson pf-1 (or something) and the others that I forget what they are called for round about the same price as the ARC. But that is with no display device. ghey.

So I have done all the research that I possibly can and keep stumbling over the same results.

What have you guys done to minimise gauge clutter in the cockpit?

I would really like a standalone MFD but would like to not pay 400 pasos for it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Store it in the glove box to avoid any clutter:

You just lose room to put stuff in there, that's all...

Or replace the stock gauge area with the aftermarket gauges:

Then you'd have to move the A/C and the Stereo Unit to the glove box, or just not have it...

Holy s*** bro.

If you put gauges in the glove box, then are pretty out of site, which makes it a pain to see. And I like to keep my head unit and ac control.

If I wanted gauges in a awkward spot I'd put put two in the ashtray.

Whereas having a mfd I can have 6 sensors compacted into one :).

Maybe I'll just bight the bullet and buy a expensive one :S.

Unless someone knows of a cheaper option. *hint**hint*

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
