Working GTR gauges in the G37!!!
Today was the first in car test of the GTR MFD CAN translator. It is small device that plugs into the OBD port, and allows 27/28 of the GTR gauges to work on the G37.* The*one gauge that doesn't work is the "acceleration / braking g sensor", as the G37/370 doesn't have one. I'll look into this once everything else is done. I did a little extra work to make the (transmission) "Gear" screen/animation work. That's all for now! https://youtu.be/xOQb0zVmMBg (To bad the video won't show/play in the post... It used to work with the YOUTUBE tags) |
Quick question:
What was the first year the 370 had a USB port and what option did it require? [update] From what I saw in the FSMs, it looks like 2010 with Nav has the USB port. Is this accurate? |

BTW, how's ur phone screen mirroring thing going on? Really having interest in that one. |
Next Project: GT-R MFD on 370 (oil temp/pressure, boost, etc...)
In AUS my 2010 Z doesn’t have the USB slot, only the RCA

My AU 2012 does have the USB connection in the centre console. Been using it for various things for ages. |

Just to double check, you do have navigation, right? |

Mid March Update:
In the first version of the code, I was sending data to the gauges 2x per second which resulted in sluggish gauges. Now the gauges get data 10x per second and the gauges respond almost instantly! I've been adding some additional features. For example, if the throttle is 80% or more, the display will automatically switch to the gauges screen. I'm not sure if this is a useful feature or just irritating to always have to switch back. Road testing will give me an idea of how useful this is. Anyways, I hope to have an update video out by the end of the week and will show all. In the meantime, here is a picture from a road test yesterday: http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1678883774 |

And wow! -1 degrees? :eek::eek: And I thought 40 degree weather in FL was cold. |

Just like you are used to the Florida heat, people in Toronto (or Canada in general) are used to below freezing temps during winter. Also, just incase you missed it, the temp is -1C is about 30F, so not far off your 40F :) |

But Canada does have some COLD@$$ weather. |
He everyone, here is the latest update:

Very cool! Hopefully still can do color changes. Would definitely rather have a 370z and/or Nismo logo on my Z than a GTR. Nissan should have did this stock with the 2015 Nismo facelift.

There seems to be a new project for you with your name on it :tup::

Sept Update:
There has been a fair amount of progress on the GTR gauges. The hardware has been finalized and I now have 20 circuit boards back from manufacturing. Over the next week I'll be building a few kits and start to test locally. (Toronto) The hand wired prototype has worked perfectly in testing on my G37 and good progress has been made in getting kits made :) Want Live Tire Pressures on the Nav screen? If your 2010+ 370 has navigation and a USB port, this video will show you how to enable the "Tire Pressure" menu, using any USB A to A cable. (about $8 from Amazon) As far as I know, there isn't any way to get this to work on 2009 and older navigation units, or any 370z without navigation. The 370, G37, GTR and about 8 other models all use the same navigation system, known as the "08IT". To get different functionality from the same nav unit, the configuration is changed. This configuration controls if you have AUX IN, Tire Pressure menu, type of amp, and a bunch of other stuff. By modifying this configuration, I have enabled the Tire Pressure menu on my G37! I did this about 3 months ago to test it and see if any thing weird acts up. There hasn't been any problems and everything continues to work just like it did before. I suppose you are wondering if anyone has tried this on a 370? Well, MikeUCFL did yesterday, and it worked without any issues: http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...ml#post4045905 https://youtu.be/hVikE-EOncg?si=uTqm3MMGp_xOWzx2 |
I've wanted that tire pressure since I bought the car. Should be in the little gauge on the left, too but I'll take it on the Nav! Thanks!
Curious what's in "Maintenance Information" as well as "Off road information." Opening animation sounds like some possibilities, too! |

As for the "Off road information" I have enabled it, but nothing additional was displayed. Some features need to see specific hardware on the car's network. |

FYI:
It looks like this also works on the 370 with the Europe version navigation software: http://www.the370z.com/attachment.ph...1&d=1696183378 |

• Nissan (like you have now) • Infiniti • GT-R There is a person who is (was?) working on a custom opening animation, but I don't know if he cracked the code. Between checksums, fixed memory locations, and an unusual image format, it would be very tricky to get it to work. |
