hks camp 2 engine monitor
 
Any one familiar with this system? I have some questions about it if you do thanx.

weiboy718 01-04-2012 11:00 PM

I have it. What would u like to know?

LafitteZ 01-04-2012 11:11 PM

i was told it only shows on the screen when your stopped? Is it worth the money in your opinion?

Liquid_G 01-04-2012 11:18 PM

I have it as well. You absolutely can watch it live. It depends how you have it hooked up. Mine is run into an aux video port on my Kenwood headunit. I can watch it live. I've got the boost and oil pressure sensors on it as well.

LafitteZ 01-04-2012 11:21 PM

well im gonna do a custom center dash with a 7 inch screen and a 7 inch double din underneath and im trying to figure out a way to move the ac controls. I basically wanna have the whole center of the dash with two screens and my turbo controller. I wanted to make sure it will show while im moving with a aftermarket tv screen.

Liquid_G 01-04-2012 11:31 PM

yep definitely will. I've wanted to do the dual screens as well. Who's doing the work for you, do you know yet?

I wonder if you could do a navi swap. Like the cars that come with navi and swap it out.

YEA I THINK THATS HOW WEIBOY HAS IT SET UP THROUGH HIS FACTORY NAV. I dont really want it to look factory. I want it to be clean but i dont want it to look like it was there when I bought it sorta speak. We gonna completely remove that whole dast center section and make it totally custom something like your setup only your not going to see where the radio dash kit and the cubby separates. I want that to be one whole face plate with the stuff in it. Im not sure how I want to cover it. the factory leather would look nice but I think its too plain I think i wanna cover it in carbon fiber or mabe a nice paint and clear to give it the smooth look.

weiboy718 01-05-2012 09:32 AM

Nah. I didn't swap out my navi. It's all stock except I got the navtool hook up for an aux input that way I can still listen to music while driving

That is going to be tough to do, unless you are going to custom fab you control knobs and probably have to extend/move the AC control box.

Did they steal your camp2 as well Dreamer?

No, it was left thankfully.

I dont think itll be hard I think itll take some innovation. Just have to see how much space I have to work with. were gonna tear it down and see what we got in the coming month or two. If not then its no biggi I just thought it would look real cool with the ac knobs and all gone and it just be one big flush plate with two screens and my greddy boost controller in between. I havent started yet I just thought about it when I was on the thinking pot aka the shitter lol.

weiboy718 01-05-2012 02:27 PM

Anything is possible IMO just depends on how far you want to push it to. The wiring harness behind the HVAC and head unit doesn't have a lot of play for you to relocate something unless you can have a piggy back harness made just to extend it otherwise the only thing you can do is ghetto chop it and solder it. Just keep in mind once wires are cut your factory warranty for the head unit and nav is voided.

LafitteZ 01-05-2012 03:36 PM

I dont have factory nav and if I drove my car to the dealership and asked them to warranty anything theyd prolly laugh out loud literally lol. Especially if they opened the rear hatch or the hood lololol or even if they looked under it. Im sure theyll have to be extended. I just have to find a place in arms reach to put them. I was sitting in the car a lil while ago and I cant think of a place to put them so i guess there gonna have to stay but we will see.

martin82 01-05-2012 07:07 PM

you could put them in the arm rest console. Extending the wires will be fairly simple actually.

How do you like the Magden and where did you find it? I like the interface a lot more than the Camp2 but I can't seem to find one anywhere.

If you find one for sale do not hesitate, the company stopped producing them and now focuses on software only.

That is exactly where I was thinking but Im trying to decide if I want to pick up the console door everytime i wanna use it. Its a cool idea I just dont want to use ease of use either. I even thought about the inside of the clove box.

What would I have to do to make the HKS Camp2 work while driving with the stock Nav screen in a 2009 model? NavTool?? Would I lose any functionality doing this instaill. I really want oil pressure and am trying to decide if doing this route would be more cost effective than tearing down the dash to install dedicated gauges in the stock 3 gauge pod. What are your thoughts?

Get Navtool. I run this on my 09. hks on the screen and still get music. wired the switch into the plank on the left underside of the steering colum with a factory snow button switch. works great and keeps you nav working.

Most who have done an upper screen have had it custom made.
