I don't think there is any difference. I have just gone through the thread and according to Marzman who bought one the display has a slight blue tint to it. everything else is as in the video.

There is a difference - the one in the video is white, and these are green. Secondly the one in the video has a second, smaller numeric readout (in green on the video) - which is not present on this model. Look at the photos of the unit, you can see there is no smaller display above the main one. This is not to put anyone off buying one - im happy with mine, it's just not the one in the video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clearing that up Marzman, as I said I never got around to trying it out when i got them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be much use if only for night driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexx Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Desperately need one of these for the Z32, but they ain't OBDii. I think I'll need to look around and see if anything can be mocked up using the Nissan Consult plug on the ECU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannyg Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Got any more left mate, will it Work in an import? Edited December 9, 2013 by Dannyg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 It wont work with an import - i tried it on my JDM zed and no joy because they are not ODBII, they are J-OBD. Lexx - maybe get one of the hard wired models which just need power and tapping into the single VSS wire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure somebody on here has a pic of its location, if not I'll try and photograph its location this evening when home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy_Baton Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 How are people hiding the wire? I'd probably just run it up the side of rg door and round the bottom of the window. Would be interested to see it installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was after "where" to route the cable in a 350Z, rather than a Range Rover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
