So I've been looking at A/F gauges with TP & RPM A/F data loggers. Seems like the only logical way to log? Logworks has this and more.

I've been looking into the innovate mtx-l series as they are well priced and come with all the cables needed for installation from gauge - sensor - pc. The problem is I don't know what 'software' comes with this gauge (I'm waiting on an email back from innovative)

What other types of gauges and loggers are people using? And why?

Isnt there another thread on who is using what wide band?

I'm using a zeitronix zt2. No worries and interfaces with nistune to be able to do all logging in there. Also logs on is own but need to wire more, i only have it wired to a boost sensor, and obviously an 02 sensor, nistube takes care of rest (revs, tps etc). Previously used it on a motorbike and it was perfect. Read out matches dyno gauge.

They are heaps cheaper now than when I bought mine

Yep there are plenty of threads on other forums for widebands too. But hardly any information on widebands WITH good data logs & a gauge.

Most of the widebands I've looked at don't have logs, or they don't show enough information, like AEM.

Thank you Stirls, I just got on my PC and saw that it came with dataworks, for some reason it cut out 2 lines on my phone...

Thanks Ben, Zeitronix is a great product by the looks of things, but double the price of the mtxl.

I'm only after a gauge/widebando2/datalogger.

I looked at zeitronix last week. They must have down in price again.

The zeitronix zt3 + hacker LCD display is $200 + $65 postage. The zt2 is just out of my price range, but well worth the extra money.

Tossing up between the zt3+hacker and the innovate auto timer + wideband.

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
