Question 350Z gauge

I used to have a 350 and one of the coolest features that came standard was the center gauge that gave mpg, miles till empty, lap timer, outside temp.... ect. I'm sitting in a dinner now wondering if it's possible to install one of those bad boys in an 8! Darklord where you at man? Let's do it.

Simple.

Install this gague and connect it to the OBD2 port. It will give you all the same info the Cobb AccessPort can.

Not a fan of OBD2 gauges, there is always a slight lag with them. I had a scangauge, returned it

bmws have it too. Or at least some do.

I find it to be a very cool feature. However, I feel like you'd spend your whole time looking at it not having any fun.
