its an upgrade for the monitor...it gives you a lap timer,2 bar boost display instead of factory 1.2 and a trick G force grid...It shows a dot in the centre of a grid and the grid is separated into .2 Gs up to 1 g...as you drive it shows the g force on the car.....It also has data logging feature for all the functions of the MFD(multi fuction display...or what we know as the telly in the centre of the dash!)Has a few other features too....

hehe ahh yes the xbox... stealing my ideas n all... yeesh...

as for the nismo doohickey, was it standard on UK spec R34 GTR's coz I could of sworn I've got a video of a dude rambling on about it as a stock part. esp the G meter n stuff, and how you can log data to your laptop for review later that night.

Like Jeremy Clarkson says...

hehe noof I've got a 250gig too now... and its filling up fast. I need that SDK disc badly.

I'm actually thinking of doing a datalogit style decoder that will hook up to an xbox and give you live readings straight from an ECU (not a power FC). Once I get the go ahead from uni I should be able to do it as my final year thesis. It shouldn't be too hard.

The datalogit is a bit much for a simple piece of hardware with custom decoding software on it. And going by the reviews I've read on it, apparently it was developed using sample data, not reverse engineering of the Power FC, so I dunno bout its accuracy. But then again, its pretty much the only thing that works in english.

Wow.. someone else with any interest in this stuff..

I've emailed the guys from Datalogit about running it on an XBox, but with no reply. Simply running it on the Xbox on Windows CE (when its ready..) or under Linux (using VMWare or Bochs or something..) is an option -- the xbox has USB so it really shouldn't be that hard.

I agree that DataLogIt is quite expensive, but considering what kind of people would be interested in buying it.. its what the market can bear after all :)

What University are you going to? I work fulltime but am completing CompSci at Latrobe Bundoora (2 Subjects left) at the sametime.. I used to live up there and all. Small World :)
