Has anyone used one of these yet? Looks like a pretty good deal for what you get. :tongue:

Quite a few Honda Ridgeline owners have them and like them.

I am using one on my '98 CTSC.
I like it a lot!
For the money I don't think you can get anything else that comes even close in functionality.
Just plug it in the OBD II connector under the glovebox and you are ready to go, lots of gauge readout functions (can do 4 at the same time) and trip computer functions too:smile:
Easy additional feature is the CEL code reader function.
I got the ScanGauge for the gauge features, but I recently had a engine check light and it was very easy that it showed me the specific codes at a push of the button. Clearing the codes was also just a button push.
Great piece of kit:biggrin:

I have it for my Civic and have been happy with it
Bunch of the Honda Fit folks use them too. Pretty popular device to keep tabs on your mpg.
No, it's never, ever come up here before.

I was going to point that out, but I figured this thread was good since it generated more interest now than it did back then.:smile:
I'm going to get one and an extra cable from SOS. Nice to see how my mpg looks at the track!!! I've gone 90 miles on a tank in the past.
This is a great product, especially for the cost. It has some really nice features like the OBD2 harness and the multiple mounting options. The unit feels very robust with a solid casing and connectors. It's worth mentioning this is compatible with 1995-2005 NSX only. Check it out here:

Will this take the place of a AFR Gauge?
I bought an ultra-gauge for my other car.
http://www.ultra-gauge.com/ultragauge/index.htm
Really superb bang for the buck since it doubles as a code reader/reset codes. The only things it doesn't do that I wish it did was to list a short trouble code description rather than just the number and also the "ready" check status for going in for smog.
I guess the other niggle is the mounting logistics of it since the cable is hard wired to the display (no way to unplug it to route the cable) are odd and unlike the scangauge, the buttons are on the back so it can't really be mounted into a single DIN opening for example as you need to be able to reach the back.
One other thing I should mention is that the alarms for coolant temp can be heard with windows down/helmet on so it's a really nice thing to have for those who track their cars.
If I had a late model NSX I would definitely be using it.

I'm enjoying using this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003MQ89X4
with an app on my Nexus S called Torque Pro.

They link via bluetooth so no cable to bother with.

Just out of curiosity, why did you pick that particular ODB2 scanner?
This was the first ELM327 compatible one I found with some decent feedback.
I think there are now some even cheaper ones out there but at less than $50 it's not a bad deal.

I had this one http://www.auterraweb.com/scantools.html, but turns out my 91' is not OBDII compatible so had it return for a refund.
Seems like alot of fun since it generates a dyno chart besides the basics.
Compatible with only 96' & up. Pricey but you get what you paid for.
I will get one again later once i find a 96' + soon, it will be fun to see all the things going on with the sensors.
