Digital Displays

Anyone have any suggestions on a functional digital display but not too big.

I want to keep my OEM cluster, but I want something that will read out my

CANBUS (LinkECU)
3 oil temps/pressure
2 water temps/pressure
AFR

Something nice that isn't a full motorsports dash.

I'm using one of these: https://gaugeart.com/product/gaugeart-can-gauge/ in a breakbeat gauge cup that goes where the right vent goes. They also make just the screen instead of a 52mm gauge.

I'm currently working on another non-240 project right now and my intent is to use one of these: https://www.vadpro.com/collections/p...ts/vad28-basic

It will also be in a 3d printed housing. My buddy has a canchecked gauge in his turbo miata that seems to work pretty well, plus you can add analog inputs to it, as well, without running an analog to can convert (like AEM sells, and cangauge sells them too but you can tell they're AEM).

Vadpro looks so sick, I love the form factor. Wish the resolution was better.... Is it pretty plug and play?

I know Powertune Digital Dash has a 5" and a 7" as well with a bit higher resolution and cheaper.... 5" is what I am leaning towards but its not instock

It's going on an OBD-compatible setup (LFX rx8) so I'm hoping yes. I just want to add oil pressure feed to it.

Why not utilize the gauge panels available and pick a dash unit if you want a digital dash? I personally have a thing for analog gauges, so I’m sticking with the R33 cluster and a Haltech Multigauge.

Totally feel you, but they tend to be racey and stick out a lot in the interior vs an 1990s car hahaha.... Like the Vadpro or the PowerTune Digital Dash Min (5") is something nice and square and discrete.... I am sure my Sparco Evo seat doesn't help the racey look, but its just nice to have something well integrated.... The GTR's have that multifunction screen right? Is that were you put it?

No. I installed a GTST cluster for the increased speed and tach range. I?m only using a 52mm Haltech Multigauge for my setup.
