was thinking about getting a new gauge setup for my s13 and was wondering if anyone has ever seen or know about electronic gauges that have a video output or something similar for it to display on an incar dvd/lcd screen?

im pretty sure ive seen it before but i just cant remember where. any info would help out. if you have some post up some pics and details.

if you can find the old pioneer vehicle dynamic system that one is pretty cool. You can display it to any pioneer screen with rgb in. The only down fall is that it is a few years old and probably a little difficult to find new.

thats pretty much what i was looking for, but do you know if their unit is only compatible with an obd2 port?

I had the original HKS CAMP in my s14 for a while.

It was neat, but kind of stupid.
I sold it.

I had the screen placed in front of my gauge cluster, so that was neat.

HKS Camp 2 is a direct plug and play for OBD2, but that would still utilize OEM sensors. If you want more accurate readings, then you should purchase their upgraded sensors. That being said, you could wire the Camp 2 into any non-OBD2 system as long as you buy the corresponding sensors.

Camp 2 is definitely alot better than the original Camp

I didn't get the additional sensors.
wow, it's been so long.
I'm trying to remember what it had!
injector duty, tachometer, speedometer... maybe something else?
It's been too long!


I just got tired of it and wanted some money.
It was neat to look at though!

HKS CAMP II is the first out of my head. They plug in to the OBDII. HKS also has a Nissan Harness for those cars who doesn't have a OBDII port. It will go directly to the Diagnostic port.

Other than that, Blitz also offer a video display system called R-vit DS. Its a direct plug in to the OBDII as well and allw you to view it with the video out put.

IMO, I think the R-vit has a more attractive interface and less boring than the HKS CAMP.
