I wouldn't mind taking another trip to El Mirage for top speed runs (it's legal).

Cool! When I have a chance I'll build up a test unit. I realized recently that I can do a reverse test initially to make sure it works. By reverse test I mean fooling the ECM to think that the car is doing 130MPH when it is actually only doing 25.

Update: Getting close!
I am making good progress on the YarGauge development and am getting close to being ready to cut a production printed circuit board that will allow me to package it to fit where it is intended to go. Right now I have three separate prototype circuit boards, tied together, handling the various functions. On of the last "data" related pieces I have been working on is the fuel economy (MPG) piece. Last night I did a test run to make sure that my code was functioning properly and captured the data to do some after the fact analysis on. Here's a plot of speed (MPH) vs. fuel economy (MPG) from a 4 mile test run last night. The graph really doesn't have much to do with the YarGauge, but I thought it was interesting enough to post. I started capturing data about 1/4 mile from my house, going down a long steep hill, as I was specifically interested in catching a DFCO event. Then I sit at a stop sign for a minute or so, waiting to make a left. Then, I drive about half a mile before making a left, a quick right, and a left (the three low bumps). Then I cruise up a long hill, which has a couple of level off points (seen by the DFCO events). I then make a rolling stop (low bump towards the end), a right turn, and then cruise down a gently sloping hill, before finally stopping. MPG vs MPH.jpg |

Hmmm. After playing with the data last night I was thinking that it would be cool to offer that feature. I'll have to see how that fits as I work on cutting the PCB and figuring out the packaging. The interface would be USB, so I could probably squeeze in a mini usb jack, and then you'd run a USB cable from the back of the cluster to someplace where you could plug it into your laptop.

CTScott is the Santa Clause for Yaris World :)
I may end up keeping my stock cluster in case i want to swap back and forth between Scott's modded RS cluster and Scott's replacement clock module on stock cluster. Last edited by Kioshi; 11-04-2009 at 02:00 PM. |
