Not sure I like the idea of waiting for my speedo to boot though!

06-02-2019, 12:18 PM #22im not 100% but wouldnt a speedo lag abit im sure someone mentioned before how are others finding the update rate as such?
Surely the lag of the speedo would depend on how fast the in car computer was?

06-02-2019, 01:24 PM #23I wouldn't change it in an IS200 cause the speedo is too pretty, but an IS250 might be worth a swap.

In one way it just seems to easy otherwise everyone would have digital dashes must be a road legal problem at a guess

06-02-2019, 01:31 PM #24Well no it would be down to the obd2 speed the first post has a link and he mentions about looking on how to get a direct feed but he has gone quiet typical I'm not sure if there is a lag may very well be fine I've not connect my obd and tested may do tomoz and record some response times

As much as I love the prettiness of the IS200 dials I was actually thinking about seeing if I could replace it with an IS250 dash, just seems much more practical having speed and revs on equal size dials.

06-02-2019, 01:40 PM #25I think as Jimbob said it's down to the refresh speed of the sensor signals coming through the OBD port, they aren't really designed to be used as a live feed so I don't think they update frequently enough for a smooth display, could be wrong though.

I wonder how after market ECU's can be tweaked to give a faster OBD read out. Using bluetooth will not help anyway, I'd rather have a cable.

06-02-2019, 01:49 PM #26the is250 dash is friggin hideous! I was extremely disappointed when I saw it, as that's one of my favourite features of the IS200.

Completed:
Currently 280bhp/295lbft; 3" Meercat custom exhaust; KW Suspension; FMIC; SSP; HPFP; Custom Stainless Steel Dials - for the moment, the only set in the world!! (Till the group buy for MPSOC anyway :lol: )
In Progress:
E-Tuning remap ongoing via Cobb Accessport; Braided brake lines; Stubby aerial; Tinted repeaters and sidelights; 3 Port Boost Control Solenoid; 3" HTP Intake
I dunno if it helps but with Torque you have a choice of speed signals, you can take the ecu speed or take it from GPS. Whether or not either's quick enough I don't know, but I've seen it updating pretty quickly on mine via Bluetooth tbh

also has all the other info from the obd and can read codes and clear fault codes. might be better to invest in some thing that can do a bit of both

06-02-2019, 10:51 PM #28i have fitted a obd dm100 gauge that can handle sprrd and takes the signal direct from the obd and is 100% no lag.
