Default Digital readout identification, any ideas?



Asking for a friend, can anyone identify the LCD dash display on this car? He's looking to purchase one and can't find it anywhere.

Thanks.

I think the company that makes that also makes gauges that are digital and have dual purposes. Stuff like a 2 1/16" gauge that would have your boost AND egt's on the same gauge. I'll search for it later but I remember them making digital readout stuff like that also. They also do alot of desiel work, it's from over seas somewhere.

I prefer a sweep gauge, but it looks like nice stuff.

Now this is cool:


Wonder how much one of these would cost. I'm starting from scratch with no gauges in the Coupe, so I'm wondering how this would compare in price to a full set of electric Autometer gauges (speedo, tach, oil pressure, temp, and shift light).

Fuck that overpriced primative shit.

I'm going the DIY route. Computer, 14" Color LCD and a data colletion unit that samples 7 parameters including WBO2 not to mention the real time data I can pull from the EFI.

Below is a screen capture I made of the gauge software I wrote. I just need to add some additional code to cluster several guages in one full screen black window.

The whole shebang won't end up costing me much more than $500, my time and some spare PC shit I had hanging around.

It will also become my in car mp3 playera and provide audible warnings for gauge limits and other events.

Oh yeah, the car PC also has a wireless dongle so it can get on my network when its in the garage.
