That sound like my dream garage Fire. We're going to build one more house once this one is paid for. It will be on some acreage and I will have a workshop with lift.... It'll be a nice spot to retire :tup:

Hey Ken! :hello:

What kinda data are tou able to glean outta the OBDII port? Can tou do trending data and check/clear CELs? I know some vehicles OBDII will tell you the amount of G's experienced in a turn? :tup:

In for pics man!

wow there happy how many drinks have you had :roflpuke2:

Actually i can track the G's I pull on turns. It has nothing to do with OBDII (on the Z) you just need a smart phone with position sensors inside it + an app that tracks that info.

Sounds like a good plan Gale. Z I don't have a smart phone or a smart phone operator LOL

Eh, didn't notice the apparent misspelling! :). Ya know, my give a damn got broke this week and is in need of recharging! :rofl2:

I'd like to install a lift sometime. I have a high ceiling in the back bay.

I hear you, somewhere I just heard Mr. Johnnie Walker call me. :icon17::yum:

Then you would probably need a sensor hooked up to a screen.

Happy has been answering that call Z :bowrofl:

:roflpuke2:

The ZL1 has speed, shift indicators and g-force in its HUD.

I think the 2013 5.0 has all that too (similar to GTR) :tup:

These cars are getting high tech. I've seen an app that you can use a smart phone as a HUD also.

:yum: which label??

wheew, just got done with part1 of 3 projects. :p went much smoother than i thought.


oh thanks, pint! :tup: :icon17:

hahaha, mr.gale, i know you did...just a little different when i actually have it in the car and working. :p thanks again. :tup:

hey fire, thanks. :tup:

nice work, mr. gale! that looks great! :tup:

hey there, mr.alchemy. yah, it's just some minor electronic things for the Z.

tomorrow is the big day for me with the new droid4. :p

hey mr.happy :hello: at the moment i have engine load, timing, maf pressure, intake air temp, coolant temp on the screen. there are others i can choose from similar to scanguage. :)

I don't have a screen in my car unless I invite TomTom in LOL

yah, im using my 5" nuvi with BT to pickup the obd2 signal wirelessly.

Ok I think I know what you are saying. I'm very non gadget Kensan.

np, i got these two things:

garmin EcoRoute (BT transmitter connects to OBD2 port under steering)

garman 1490LTM (free lifetime map update and traffic module)

I propose having to post pics of what the hell you guys are talking about LOL

LOL good anticipation Kensan.

Sweet!

haha, you bet. :tup:


thanks, yah, it's pretty damn cool. :tup: i read i can still pair my phone to the Nuvi even with the EcoRoute BT module running, so it's like an all-round solution for me. i will find out tomorrow when i have my new phone. :p

I only get a new phone when I can upgrade for free and then I have to think about it. I only use my phone as a phone and for texting.

Ken, Gale, Fire, the blanks rep you received is from me. Jar, I owe you one buddy.

Thanks ya Alchemy:tup:

thanks! :tup:

Well fine then! :rolleyes:







Didn't drain oil. Not sure what's up but now the reading is where it's supposed to be. Getting lots of compliments on the exhaust though. :tup:

Oh no you pi$$ed pint off Alchemy. She is going to beat your a$$.

:rolleyes:



:bowrofl:

He's got a head start. I'm a bit inebriated at the moment. :p

What is up with all you drinkers? Yes I'm jealous there is no alcohol in the house right now.

Black , I don't drink red and I don't have the income to allow myself to drink higher :icon17:

It's Friday! Come on down, I'll buy you a few. :)

I'll be right over. Should only take me about a day to drive out there :tup:

:icon18:

Actually all I have to do is walk across the street. There is a mini market that sells beer and stuff. It's not a 24 hour one though and is closed :shakes head:

:tup:

going to hit the sack. big day again tomorrow...

gnight! :tup:
