Did not even know such a thing existed. Falling behind. Had a quick look and I am impressed. Soonest I find the best price with shipping to Canada I will get one. Thanks a lot for suggesting this little instrument.

Why not PM CaliYaris (Garm), and see what kind of price he can get you.
He runs the Microimage site:
http://microimageonline.com/

http://shop.microimageonline.com/Electronics_c49.htm

http://shop.microimageonline.com/ScanGauge-II-SGII.htm

Maybe he can get a good shipping price to Canada.

I've purchased items from him, and he is great to deal with.
It's best to PM for details.

If you've got an android phone you can get a bluetooth OBDII reader off ebay and download an app called "Torque" which shows all the readouts as well

Thank you all for the input. Ordered ScanGuage II from eBay, coming from Canada so no worries about duty. ($159.95 incl. shipping)

Cheers

With ELM-327, an Android device and Torque you get a scan tool for about 30$. Torque can do many things including logging. One of the options is to log to their website, so can login and view your data in the map. Or import into Google Earth.

You were right CTScott. Just received email from the manufacturer. The gauges I was considering will not work with SAE J1962 data.

I will be happier with ScanGauge II anyway.
