syfon Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 The epson ej1 is the ecu for the LCD screen right? Basically one that is the same as what you have in your car - displaying oil pres, boost, speed, rpm, the whole works.... Do you know the jap sites that still sell them?

Do you know the jap sites that still sell them? Yeah, if you dont have the ej1 then the screen is only use for as a tv or reversing camera or some thing like that. Also there is no oil pressure or boost pressure, it has rpm, speed, power (how it gets the power im not sure but it was pretty close), gforces for accelerating and breaking (no side to side) and then a whole heap of pit stuff that somehow gauges tyre wear and other stuff. I didnt like it and got rid of it, wasnt really what i wanted, was just a little gadget to tinker with. Dont remember what site still sells them, will have to do a search.

syfon Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 So basically without the ej1 the screen can only be used as a tv or something like that? I didnt think you needed the ej1 to display speed, rpm, etc. What does the screen on your dash display?

I didnt think you needed the ej1 to display speed, rpm, etc.What does the screen on your dash display? You can use anything which has a video output; so HKS CAMP 1 or 2, blitz have something similar also, or ej-1 system there is one for sale atm but at 1.5k+ (no ej1 system but its the sat nav one) the screen is just used to display anything (has a video input at the rear of the dash) Edited August 3, 2009 by Kaido_RR Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/174666-nismo-dash/page/2/#findComment-4747115 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaido_RR Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 hks camp 2 wont work its prely OB11 http://www.hksusa.com/info/?id=3474 it just needs something to plug the A/V plugs into so don't see why it won't work (unless it doesnt work with the stock ecu) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/174666-nismo-dash/page/2/#findComment-4747132 Share on other sites More sharing options...

W0rp3D Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 What i meant was the hks camp wouldnt work in a skyline, but that lists a cable for the consult port so it should, but only if you still have the standard ecu. Also i would take note of all the extra bits needed at the bottom of the page you linked to (unless it will all work through the consult port) that was exactly the sort of thing i was looking for, pitty no one told me about the consult port cable back then, just thought it was OB11 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/174666-nismo-dash/page/2/#findComment-4747145 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what your saying is that everyone should do the same things with there cars, no one is allowed to be different or do something that you dont agree with, not all people just want to go faster, most people understand this but there are still some who think modifying a car is all about doing it there way and every other way is wrong.
