Carbonsignal Custom GTR Style Display Screen

gomer_110 · 04-07-2015, 01:39 PM

Two questions:

1) What items from the OBDII connection can be displayed?
2) Any chance of an option for logging data to a SD card (preferably in .csv format)?

very interesting... too much $, not enough ROE for my N/A Z. I can see the benefits for boosted Z for sure. i'm curious if this can be enabled to do more than just gauges. maybe backup camera?

Can you guys fabricate tablet mounts?

Response is good to start on fabrication side we will see number of people interested in. Please check updated first post with some more pictures from G37 and sample screen

Im curious could the joy stick be routed to the dummy switches in the center console?

We plan to put the joystick in front on screen where stock navi knob is making some grooves for the knob so it looks in place in the cuby hole replacement piece. But for any custom order it should be a big issue to mobe around the joystick.

Yes dimmer can be there but we were thinking to put on port linked to headlights when you turn those on screen goes dim.

Not sure what the port in OEM navi screen if AV/HDMi is there can be projected there

not sure haven't used torque app but here we can offer kit with android app and can display same upto 14 readings. Can provide additional sensors which can be read from OBDII

Changing wont be that difficult

I need to get a list from some reliable source which inputs are there in our OBDII connection.

SD so far there isint any provision but we can inquire if can be done, but as of now there is no reader as well

The screen has an AV input and a pin for signal of the reverse light for an auto switch to AV once you engage the reverse gear so yes camera works fine.

We can look into fabrication but not sure if that works out better in terms or shipping back and forth.

I would tie it in with the instrument cluster dimming buttons. As that is where most people will be adjusting brightness of their displays... I know at night I turn everything as low as possible to increase night vision... especially in lowered cars and on wet roads...

As I said it will be linked with headlight which can be by default plus additionally dimmer option.

roplusbee · 04-08-2015, 05:48 PM

This looks like a nice option. I am looking forward to seeing this installed in the cubby.

Very Nice, Might have to pick this up

looks sweet guys.

nice job.

I'm actually talking to someone about these digital gauges in the pictures shown, called Zada Tech. There's a 7" option, but the site has not been updated. I'm also going to see if additional parameters can be decoded and displayed.
Zada Tech

Yeah we are the agent/partners for them for gcc and USA. And working on some other prototypes

Awesome. I haven't purchased anything yet, but I'm talking to Matin about the ODB2 data for our Z. I asked him to see if he can find a local Z owner to help him test it out.

I'll give him a heads up, so hopefully by the time you get the orders in he'll be able to support displaying data for our cars.

OBD2 parameters we have sorted out already as that's the basic package which will be offered along with some room for customization. We will be start working on making a custom cubby hole holder in a weeks time

DIGItonium · 04-10-2015, 01:45 PM

Let's say we remove the cubby holder entirely. Do you think you can fab an elegant solution and provision space for the joystick, indicators, and room for things like switches, boost control panel, etc.? Like with PC cases with blank 5.25" bay panels. Maybe you can do something like that, so one does not have to destroy the entire assembly cutting into it.

I imagine this route is cheaper than getting the whole OEM navigation panel for $400.
