Some people seem to think that a 96 mm stroke makes a J37 slow revving. I have a J37A2 with a 15 lb aluminum flywheel and I can assure you that it is quick revving in typical Honda fashion. I'm not comparing it to a C-series NSX engine as I've never driven one, but I've had K-series powered...

The custom cable is $27. It's just to connect the CAN data port on the DGauge to whatever data acquisition system you have. So, you need an acquisition system that has the ability to log CAN data.

No, but we can make you a cable.

The external alert could possibly be reconfigured, but it would require work on the user interface, which could take some time. Anything that will log CAN data will work. The AEM AQ-1 comes to mind. Firmware updates are free.

Answers: 1. The internal alert will blink the value for that parameter. 2. The external alert only monitors Oil Temp and Oil Pressure. It is an open collector output, which will ground the alert output pin when active. This could be used for an LED or buzzer. See the user manual for the EA1...

We didn't see enough interest to develop a special version, but it looks like the DGauge will fit inside the ashtray area if the ashtray assembly and the the DGauge housing were modified.

Here are the OBD parameters that are available on the NSX. CLV (Calculated Load Value) % ECT (Engine Coolant Temperature) °F or °C STF (Short Term Fuel Trim, Bank1 and Bank2) % LTF (Long Term Fuel Trim, Bank1 and Bank2) % MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) kPa BP (Boost Pressure)...

We changed Screen mode 3 to a 4x gauge layout. Screen 1 = Gauges 1 and 2. Screen 2 = Gauges 3 and 4. Screen 3 = Gauges 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Yes, flush mount like the AVC-R installation. If you want to mount the DGauge behind the door, then you will have to modify the ashtray assembly, which includes the door (see pic). At that point, you might as well use the current DGauge housing.

The ashtray itself appears to be too small, that's why we want to design the special version to be flush mount, requiring the whole ashtray assembly, including the door, to be removed. The special DGauge version would snap into place, with hook tabs that secure to the sides of the opening.

For OBD1, what parameters would you want to monitor? Thanks for the offer on the center console, but we need to have one in hand to do a good job of designing the DGauge housing. If you want to let us barrow it for a couple of weeks, then we can pay for shipping and offer a discount on a...

Updated firmware now released! The external alert has been enhanced to monitor oil temperature as well as oil pressure. We posted a user manual for the EA1 wiring kit here: http://www.brockwayengineering.com/manuals.html We still need a center console trim piece for measuring. If anyone has one...

We're going to add the EOT background monitoring and enable the external alert for that as well as the OIL pressure. This is a pretty simple update and should be implemented in the next week or so. We're also investigating a custom DGauge version to fit in the ashtray opening. This would be...

Looking for a center console plastic trim piece. Number 8 in the pic. Any condition.

Thanks for all the feedback. We'll keep this in mind when working on an update. Some of this can be done with a firmware update, but some would require a redesign. The current firmware will actually monitor a third parameter in the background. If Oil Pressure is selected as an input, then it...

OK, we'll keep this in mind for future updates. Thanks for the input!

That depends on what you consider "value". The wideband gauge is a single gauge whereas the DGauge is many, plus it can check and clear trouble codes, plus it has alerts, plus it has a shift light output, plus it has a gear position indicator, plus it's visible in all lighting conditions, plus...

What specific parameter alerts do you want?

Only 2 parameters at a time. Our current screen layout is 2 gauges and the alerts work by blinking the value. We have thought about a 4 gauge layout, but can't work on it for a few months due to other stuff we are working on. The DGauge is designed to communicate with an OBD2 compliant ECU. The...

Yes, it will work with the F/IC as long as the ECU is OBD2 compliant (1996 or later). Since the NSX does not have factory wideband sensors, then you would need either the AEM wideband gauge, or the AEM Inline UEGO and connection cable to read the AFR on the DGauge.

I have purchased Ti bolts from these vendors without issue: Yoyodyne http://www.yoyodyneti.com Mettec http://www.mettec.com Corse Meccanica (no longer in business) It's too bad Corse Meccanica is no longer in business. They had the best prices and highest quality bolts. I even had them make...

See post #6 above for the OBD parameters that are available on a 1996 or later NSX. The factory MAP sensor will provide readings up to 176kPa, which equates to about 10~12 psi of boost, depending on elevation. For boost pressures higher than this, you need an external sensor. The DGauge has 2...

Yes. There are alerts for the following parameters: ECT (Engine Coolant Temp) EOT (Engine Oil Temp) EGT (Exhaust Gas Temp) OIL (Oil Pressure) BP (Boost Pressure) All fully adjustable. When the alert is active, the gauge value will blink.

Firmware now released. Here is a video showing the performance of the Gear Position indicator: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifNCPkbQHh0 It's a bit blurry due to the engine/vehicle vibrations. Best we could do with the camera mount that we have.
