ironpaw Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Question guys - I'm thinking of getting one of these. Will I need the Boost sensor as well as the oil temp sensor too?

zei20l Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 you dont NEED them to run the device, but if you want those two thing monitored then youll need the sensors too. the rest of the stuff is taken from teh ECU. to have exact water temp there all the time, IMO its well worth its money. dont want to overheat in these summer temps. there are only limited spare VQ25DETs Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/10/#findComment-5607367 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daleo Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Question guys - I'm thinking of getting one of these. Will I need the Boost sensor as well as the oil temp sensor too? I'll be running both of these on mine in the next little while, mainly so I don't have to run a separate boost gauge; keeps everything neat. I'll be using the oil temp probe in the gearbox to monitor auto temp Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/10/#findComment-5607378 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zei20l Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 how many temp sensor inputs are there? maybe you can do both! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/10/#findComment-5607408 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty nm35 Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 You could run two sensors and switch between them... If the sensors weren't $200 each I would have that one also. For the oil temp and oil pressure you will need an oil filter adapter or oil cooler kit like the Greddy one that has threads for the sensors.

zei20l Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 hmmm imagine having water temp, oil temp, oil pressure and transmission temp all on the same screen i think the HKS CAMP2 will do that.

Daleo Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 What do you have to do to have the Power (PS) display functioning? I've put in the vehicle type (Nissan), body type (wagon), weight (1800kg), am I missing something? Apparently my car produces Zero power . Everything else I've displayed so far appears to work except this one, rather curious. Any help would be great Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/10/#findComment-5611729 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunkist Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 the only other thing i did to that was the gear ratio.. not sure why it would make a diff though.. worth a shot?

Yeah, I did all that when I set it up originally, not sure why it's not playing the game. Maybe I'll just go through it again Driver; well that's a given; right? Where do you alter the gear ratio's? Is that in the "offset" bit? Thanks guys. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/10/#findComment-5612293 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunkist Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 i cant remember, i just followed what the book says, it says to input your speed at a certain amount of rev in each gear. i dont know what its called i just called it gear ratio Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/10/#findComment-5612483 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cephas Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I have a new stock radiator and thermostat as well as a 1st generation Informeter. Unless I'm really pushing it the temp sits at 90c in summer. Hume highway from Picton to Moss Vale at 120ish up the hills on a 30+ day might get to 94c. Pushing up twisty hills in the RNP produces similar results.

Cephas Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 A more general Informeter question.... I've got the airbag light flashing at the moment, but the diagnostic code readout on the Informeter is reading '0' Anyone know if it's possible to get the codes to display? Or is it a case of the cars different ECU's not talking to each other and the Informeter can only display codes from the engine management?

Or is it a case of the cars different ECU's not talking to each other and the Informeter can only display codes from the engine management? Id try the error code readout sequence (wait 3, accelerator pump etc etc) , that may give you code for the error - but I was never able to get a code for why mine was flashing. Ive recently connected one of the seat sensors to the passenger side (drivers side has a resistor in place of the sensor) and performed the reset sequence. Seems to be holding. Id check you have the plugs under your seat if you've always had the light flashing!

Tony de Wonderful Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Has anyone hooked up a wideband to their infometer, and has anyone used the datalogger function? Does it just play back visually or can you download a text file or anything to PC?

scotty nm35 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 Not the informeter, there is no input for it. I do all my logging with the Emanage Ultimate, wideband included, then I send the log to my tuner who rings me back and tells me if I need a re-tune after each mod. lol.
