HKS CAMP - Who's Got One ??

[Jay95R33]

Been thinking about getting a boost gauge for the Stagea, but can't make up my mine where to mount the damn thing.

I don't want it to stick out anywhere, really don't want to drill holes or cut any of the dash up

Then I thought (seems it came with a factory tv screen) about the HKS CAMP.

It can display a heap of sensors etc, and on Yahoo Japan auction site there's a few there for around $150. But I have no idea how to get something that's being sold on the Jap Yahoo auctions

Plus I love stealth, so when I'm not using it I'll just fold it away (the screen slides away when the igintion is turned off )

Now, if I get a decent boost gauge and a mount/pod etc, I'll be up for close to that amount anyway.

So, anyone got one ? What do they think of them?

Cheers

ive looked at it (with the tv i have) and was keen on doing it

just lost interest in it really. funkymonkey has it and he has a tv as well

but im not sure if its setup or not, you could ask him

i believe he may be able to source it for you

in fact if he can and its $150 i may be interested too

[Jay95R33]

Cool, thanks Paul. Yeah I dropped Funky a PM about it I was reading an old post where he had it set up and logging data etc.. Sounds very cool.

Funky, where are you

Could someone post the price of these? If the price is around the quoted figure so far, I think a few people may be interested in them.

Gezz, I didn't realise that Alamo Motorsports was in Melb. I was looking at the $219 price tag and thinking it was in USA dollars !! **edit** hahaha, it's in Melbourne all right, Melbourne Florida USA !!!

Now we just need to figure how to wire the sensors straight to the CAMP computer without having to buy a junction box.

I had the circuit diagram for the junction box on my PC but for the life of me I can't find it. GRRR...

CAMP's are awesome. They give you all the functionality of the R34 HUD, but with the added coolness of a fishtank and datalogger

[paulr33]

thats tops i didnt know they were in melb either

see if you can find the diagram funkymonkey

jayr33 are u going to buy it? i would but im not keen on splicing all the crap into my ecu harness

[midnight]

theres afew sponsors on the nissansilvia.com forum that buy from yahoo japan auctions.

they could prob sort you out

If I (or Funky) can find the wiring diagram for the junction box then I'll probably end up getting one.

But the junction box is a bit more than the CAMP computer itself so if I can get the wiring diagram for the junction box I won't bother...

Funky - is the diagram just wiring, or does it have some sort of circuity in it too ?

its a few chips and bits. Think I etched a PCB as well for it, honestly can't remember, was too long ago... nothing major as I didn't have to get the pic programmer out or anything.

I reckon $219 is good value. Mine cost $175 secondhand including postage with an extra remote and a 2mb storage card. I bought it off yahoo japan.

[Jay95R33]

Cool, that shouldn't be any problems then. Sounds like just a few switching IC's etc..

Would be awsome if it pops up

Oh, that site is in the US, in Florida So it'd be $220us, or about $290ish plus postage.. The Yahoo Japan auctions sound like a better deal.

One other problem may be the manual. Will need an english manual for the wiring and setup.. Maybe HKS USA has got one.

J

[funkymonkey]

Jay as I said, if you're happy with the price I gave you I can source one and have it EMS'd off to you. As for the manual, this I can provide. I have an English manual which I used plus I translated some of the operators manual from Japanese and made a quick Cheat Sheet so I knew what I was doing. The menu and all that itself is self explanatory as most of it is in English.

[pentae]

I'm wondering if any other companies make something thats the same as the HKS Camp but doesnt have the 'visual basic in 1997' screen output? something that looks a bit more horn? i've got 7 glorious inches of touchscreen i dont want going to waste on something that looks like its being pumped out by a commodore 64

Thanks Funky, sounds really good. I just want to make sure I can get the junction box circuit diagram so I can run the extra sensors (boost and low temp are the sensors I'd like to monitor). If I need to buy the junction box it turns into a pretty expensive project

pentae, the camp can be connected to a PC to feed it live readings, I'm sue someone can develop a frontend for it. I've written a basic script that captures the data into a logfile.

Digging up an old thread... has anybody made any more progress on this? I'm planning on putting a PC in the dash to replace the factory Xanavi unit and the idea of having guages available on there and not having to mount pods and stuff is very appealing to say the least... for $300 (if I don't need to pay extra for any other wiring setup etc) it sounds plausible to me, either new or secondhand...

Dowload the Nissan consult software and purchase a consult cable, connect both to laptop and you have live feeds...

I have a mate who did exactly that with a flush screen touch panel in his R33
