This will allow oil pressure monitoring and RPM reduction to protect the engine. It will also allow ethanol content, fuel pressure or almost anything else as an input.

I have designed/built a CAN bus module and will be testing it on my car with Eugene once this update is released.

Wow this is exactly what I wanted to hear!!! (Did I miss this in your thread? Whoops…)

That will be a must add for my car when it’s released.

The SpeedHut gauge has a low pressure and a high pressure warning that you can set to any psi you like. My low pressure warning is set at 20 psi. I have the high pressure set at 130 psi.

Nice my Prosports have the same and switchable white/ orange lighting so it matches the OE gauges as another option.

The SpeedHut gauges have 20 different faces that you can chose from. And a whole bunch of other options to chose from.

Other than this post, I haven't mentioned it.
Normally, I like to have a running prototype before I say anything.

However, since I was getting some other circuit boards made, (GTR Converter!!!), I added a board that does "analog in" (pressure & temp) to CAN bus.

Once I'm further along with the local testing of the "GTR gauges", I'll assemble, program and test it on the bench.

Well you mentioned it on MYG37...so this will work with EcuTec only? I guess I'm going to get a gage then.

As far as I know, only EcuTek will support a CAN bus input for a sensor.

For Bluetooth gauges, right now they work with our LCD Mini-dash and the GTR gauges on the G37/370 with navigation.
Down the road, there are plans to replace the Infiniti clock face with a high resolution LCD display and make it a "multi-gauge".
Data sources will be CAN bus and Bluetooth.
