Displaying telemetric data on my Nav Screen?
Displaying telemetric data on my Nav Screen?
I have a 2007 G35X with the Nav package and for an upcoming autocross event, I would like to utilize the Speed Hud app I run on my phone by routing the information in real time to my Nav Screen via the AUX input.
The App: Speed Hud
-Displays Speed, direction, Acceleration G meter, a Speed over time graph and an Acceleration over time graph.
-Relatively accurate, uses both accelerometer and GPS data for a reasonably accurate and cheap alternative to a professional set up.
The Car: 2007 G35X with NAV.
Main Issue:
-Video input requires Car to not be in motion.
-Video Input ALSO requires parking brake to be engaged
Proposed solution:
- KP technologies sells a Navigation interface module that overrides the nav unit and allows the unit to be used when the car is in motion. The unit is sold at the following link and I believe will fix the issue of not being able to use video input when the car is in motion. I hope this will override the

-After a small amount of research I learned there is a wire in the parking break that you can cut that removes this limitation, but I do not know where to find it. Hopefully there is a simple mod that allows me to override this.
I have to assume that someone has tried to do this before, but I have been relatively unable to find any info about the specifics of how they managed to do it. Of course I could live with simply mounting my phone on my dash but I paid for the phone and I paid for the Nav unit and I know that joining the two is technically possible so why not try it. If anyone else has experience doing this please can you either contact me directly or link me to anywhere where I may be able to find out more details.
If I can figure out a way to do this that I plan on documenting the process and doing a full write up so others can benefit from doing this.

1) Yes it is very simple to do yourself
2) You can find step by step instructions via Google
3) You cannot talk about it here, against rules
