This would be cool, but i would want bigger screen and looks like that oem e30 cluster is, but add some extra gauges at the backround

@Itsallaboutthebuild 3 месяца назад

Maybe could go with 10inch or two circular digital cluster gauges to the left and right 👍👍👍

@wheelsandstuff 6 месяцев назад

this is brilliant, i was thinking of doing a digital dash on a 2005 VW Passat, i have bought a broken cluster to use for dimensions so we can draft it up on CAD - did you do a fuel guage? im thinking of using up the whole space to add things like a digital fuel guage etc also - great job! - subbed!

@Itsallaboutthebuild 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the sub 👍. For fuel gauge you could add a circular gauge in TSDash as well. I should have covered that. Are you thinking of going with standalone circular gauges to the left and right of the LCD screen???

@@Itsallaboutthebuild i was considering that, i also found some sharp form lcd's but not sure if they still produce those, i was thinking maybe using the form lcd to cut the shape of the cluster - just depends on availability vs cost i guess

@Itsallaboutthebuild Месяц назад

@@wheelsandstuff you could cut more out of the cluster, but I think it would need to have higher infill for the 3D print. To get this one done quicker it was like 8% infill which didn’t work well when you start to cut into it 👍

Excellent video!! Ive always wanted to do this to my e30s. What write up did you follow? Do you need to be on standalone ECU?

@Itsallaboutthebuild 6 месяцев назад

Thanks much 👍 This e30 project is getting out of hand 🤣. Hope yours is in better shape. So we plan to go with a Speeduino standalone ECU and that will work with TSDash. You’ll have to replace the Jetronic or build some custom ADC to read the sensors which I couldn’t find any info on.

Hey so quick question. I'm thinking about doing something like this for my motorcycle or even a celica gts(1991 year). Can I use all this on a carburetted vehicle without any sort of ecu(only cdi) or on a car without obd2 with the stock ecu?(Stumbled upon this video and subbed you guys do some very interesting stuff)

@Itsallaboutthebuild 2 месяца назад

Much appreciated, so for non OBDII or just carb with some sensors you’ll need to add something like an audriuno that has analog to digital conversion. It gets a little more complex which is why we are going to go with speedunio standalone ECU connected to the Raspberry pi. Best of luck 👍👍👍

@brenonm10 Месяц назад

I want this on my 06 Arctic Cat Side by Side. However I have no OBD port. Any recommendations on wiring this in? Also any recommendations on what all I need raspberry pi wise?

@Itsallaboutthebuild Месяц назад

We have pre-obd ECU so we are going with standalone speeduino ECU. That ECU can then be hooked up to raspberry pi for display output. If you want to keep your stock ECU, you may have to look at other board such as audruino as it will have analog-to-digital converters. That will be needed to take existing analog signal and convert to digital in order to display. It gets a bit complex which is why we plan to change our ECU. Plus a different ecu will allow us to do more tuning for things like turbo in future 👍

does it work for an old car with obd1 I mean can I use digital inputs of raspberry as I want?. I got an old car that all signals of the dashboard are analog and 12v bulbs I know i can lower 12v to 5v to be connected to raspberry pi imputs but I wonder if I can use Tuner Studio TSDash to do that ?

@dragospatru432 3 месяца назад

Hello, how do you get the data from the car, like speed rpm and others, is it via OBD?

@ShanaginsTactical 2 месяца назад

Hey I know this videos old, how do you get it to communicate with the Pi? Can you use an OBDII, to USB and plug it in to the Pi?

@Itsallaboutthebuild 2 месяца назад

If you have OBDII check out openautopro loaded on the raspberry pi instead. Then you can go OBDII via Bluetooth to raspberry pi with a Bluetooth dongle 👍

@tylermiddaugh1515 Месяц назад

so is the power routed from your ignition? does it have a battery or anything for safe shut down or that not an issue? also, im assuming you're routing an obd2 cable or Bluetooth for data? im wanting to make a small secondary screen for my truck to display extra information on my dash. your set up seems the easiest so far.

@Itsallaboutthebuild Месяц назад

We are replacing the non OBD ECU with a standalone ECU, Speedunio unit. The raspberry pi will connect to that via USB. Plan to power up via ignition start. Also, there's small UPS battery daughter boards you can get for Raspberry pi which can auto power off the unit gracefully when main power from USB is shut off. Thinking of going that route to make things automatic with safe power shutdown.What type of truck do you have?

@Itsallaboutthebuild 3 месяца назад

Thanks much. We printed this with PLA, which isn’t the greatest for hot sun but this was more of a prototype. We’ll print the next one with a cut out already in ABS filament. ABS filament is way better for parts that will be in the sun. ABS is good up to like 180F degrees 👍

Hello, first of all, congratulations for the great work. But once I saw the video I decided to buy it and install it, and I don't know if it's just me but it takes me a long time to start and it doesn't move as fluid as yours. Another question, how do you turn off the screen from the phone? Greetings and thank you!!

@Itsallaboutthebuild 2 месяца назад

You can connect to TSDash build on the raspberry pi from your phone via the WiFi connection. By default the TSdash build has WiFi enabled. Connect to the WiFi and open your browser to connect to the web version of TSdash. On that page you will find the shutdown option. Not sure why yours may be a bit laggy. Are you running a raspberry pi 4 or higher?
