Tony de Wonderful Posted January 29, 2011 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. According to this link you spice the wideband in the pink wire on the infometer.

Might be a better gauge than the innovative one I use...

Tony de Wonderful Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Very nice find, I haven't seen that before. Might be a better gauge than the innovative one I use... Well I've got one on order and it would be a bonus if this works (no reason to believe it doesn't). Pink must be an analogue input but I am not sure it's left free if you run the sensor adaptor also. Though having looked thsi picture of the wiring set-up it looks like the pink is still available even with the three external sensors = possible win.

scotty nm35 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 Yeh, I have the external sensors all plugged in, which means I cant run the serial connection to the Emanage. I cant remember offhand if the pink wire was free. I wonder if there are any other sensors I can plug in...

Daleo Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 i wish i could get it to dim at night time. or when my headlights are on. anyone know that one? Mine doesn't dim either, so I just reduced the backlight to around 30%. Still fine in the day, and much better at night.

zei20l Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 if the sun is on it, i cant see it, but at night its a little too bright, compared to my dash anyway. if it dimmed with the headlights that would be awesome Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/11/#findComment-5646817 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitestag Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hey quick question to all. How hot water temp is to hot. Hit 99 today in traffic and got little worried as I set alarm at 97. Air intake was at 76 :S Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/11/#findComment-5650810 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cephas Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Sounds about right given the shocking temps today. Did it cool quickly once you were moving again? If the radiator is working well it should get under control quickly.

Daleo Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) Hey quick question to all. How hot water temp is to hot. Hit 99 today in traffic and got little worried as I set alarm at 97. Air intake was at 76 :S Mine does this also, in fact; those are the exact same peak numbers as on my Informeter. It's not nice to look at, but before you had the Informeter it was exactly the same; you just didn't know it. You have to understand this isn't an HQ holden, these engines are designed to run in the mid 80's minimum. Modern engines run tight tolerances and the running temperatures reflect that, higher engine running temperatures also promote better emissions (notwithstanding the rich/retard things cars do when the weather gets really hot). My last Honda road bike (CBR 929RR) had a digital temp gauge; running temp was 89 deg, would routinely run out to 106 deg, fan would come on drop it to 98 deg. I once rode it on a 47 deg day with a pillion, with the temp gauge sitting on 102 deg for 5 hours. I did 75000km on this bike and when I sold it it went EXACTLY the same as the day I bought it. Most Honda road cars, the optimum running temp is 90 -95 deg, it's just a number. The cooling system is under pressure (10- 15psi is normal), water does not boil at 100 deg if it is pressurised. (I think the rule of thumb is an extra degree for every psi of pressure) As Cephas says; the thing to worry about, is if the car doesn't cool down once you're moving (more than 70km/h). This means the cooling system, or the volume of water in the system is inadequate for the purpose. Of course, any amount of heat you can remove from the syatem is a good thing (i.e external oil or trans cooler ducted AWAY from the radiator) just gives more headroom for the system to operate in extreme conditions.

zei20l Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 mines hit 107 before in hot weather with the AC on. this was stop start traffic lately its been around 90-99 in stop start. once im moving at 60km it drops back to mid 80s. im not so worried anymore now other people are having similar numbers. i also have a nismo thermostat which i think was a stock one in a nismo box Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/11/#findComment-5651068 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitestag Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yeah. I average near 90 on hotter days. Hit 99 and got worried so took back roads where I wash sitting still and dropped to 94-95. Air temp was high 60's still though. Need standard airbox! Any body know where I can get one without selling my liver?

whitestag Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Ok I thought it was just me with high intake temps. As when I opened the bonnet it dropped 5 degrees within seconds. Also driving with bonnet open shows marked improvement with my crappy pod. But cant drive with the bonnet open around streets.

Dunc Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Can anyone with a leaf screen AND an informeter comment on the fuel consumption readouts from the informeter?

whitestag Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Well it depends on how often you reset your informeter. My average is quite accurate with leaf but trip is a little off. Haven't really tested it though. I find the actual leave compared to the currant usage on inform to be the same. But my throttle seems never to go below 10% lol dunno why Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/309626-informeter/page/11/#findComment-5651289 Share on other sites More sharing options...
