Dunno yet. If I had to guess, I would say no. I added transmission cooler and complete sensor package (A/F, pressures, temps, and EGT) which might set them back a little. Cool thing is no guage pods needed .. all engine parameters can be displayed on the factory LCD.

Unfortunately more than what those nice coil-overs of yours would have cost me.

Hopefully, they'll be finished with the car by the end of this week.

What is being used/how is it being done?

The display graphics will be from the F-CON iS, but GTM and/or I have to work out the video being displayed while the audio is on while the car is moving issue. That means tapping into the composite or RGB signal going to the LCD. Once I get all this working right, I want to go with a better GUI, like the HKS CAMP2:

I imagine there are LOTS of things capable of being opened up in this car that we have just barely touched on. Unfortunately, there's not enough of a demand out there for the aftmkt to spend the time on it.

F-CON iS has composite output, but I'm not to fond of the graphics. If I were to do disable the video lockout and display the iS graphics though the AUX in, my audio will be disabled while the guages are displayed which is no good for me. Hence tapping the LCD input directly. That way guages can be displayed AND audio can function at the same time.
The cool thing I discovered is that because my car has a back-up camera, it already has composite intputs directly to the LCD which means I may not need a composite video to RGB converter. I have to figure out how the input signal is switched.

There is actually someone here getting the CAMP2 installed right now and I want to see it when it is finished. I'll let him answer any questions on his set up.
