I'm glad you found me and I'm glad you are looking for a G37. I think the G37 is the peak of Infiniti from a "fun car to drive" perspective. It doesn't have too much technology and as a result, is generally VERY reliable... plus it is so much fun to drive... Generally, I keep my cars as long as possible. I have no plans on selling the G37, much like I have no plans to sell my 22 year old BMW 530. So, you can expect to see new videos here for a long time! Thanks for the comment.

Very interesting work, I'd like to see this being a commonplace thing/display for the boosted models of both the G37 coupes/sedans, and the 370z sports cars (that have the same display). Might be a open aftermarket mod idea, less cost AND less hassle with disassembling the pillar trim pieces, to retrofit custom gauges! Great demo video! And I hope see you progress with this software!

As I see it, this is the easiest way to get all the gauges you want! There is no need to wire anything through the firewall (which is not easy!!) and it is plug an play! It should work with any 2010+ 370 or G37 with navigation. In the next few weeks I will be testing locally to make sure everything works as expected. I also have put together a oil pressure sensor that can use Bluetooth or CAN bus to send the data to the GTR gauges. Everyone who owns a G37 or 370 needs to keep an eye on their oil pressure due to the possibility of the oil gallery gasket failing and causing an internal oil pressure leak. Stay tuned for updates!!

Hey Frank! I have just discovered the channel and have been blown away at the work you have done, very impressive. I noticed in this video that you are interfacing 2 can busses into a single ESP32.

Hey Kyle, Thanks for your kind words! At this time, I haven't made the time to clean up my messy notes and publicly publish anything. All of my free time is spent on development and testing. However, the dual CAN bus ESP32 (good eye, by the way!!) is just an ESP32, SN65HVD230 CAN bus transceiver (for the built in ESP32 CAN bus controller) and a modified MCP2515 module so it can run on 3.3 volts. The MCP2515 module uses SPI to communicate with the ESP32 and runs at the max clock speed of 10Mhz. The end result is a VERY affordable dual CAN bus board, with built int Bluetooth and WiFi.

The non-nav units will require a different solution, as they don't have the "GTR gauges" firmware built in to the AV unit. However, later this year I will be starting to investigate an Infiniti G35/G37 clock gauge, that can show a few important data items, like coolant temp, engine oil temp and engine oil pressure. Also, using the same code base, I will be looking into a 7" GTR like display for the 370z.

Awesome work man, two thing if they could be added it would be fantastic, 1- AFR Sensor as there available from obd2. 2-intake air temp. If these 2 parameters could be added I guarantee you most 370z/g37 owners would be interested in this mod, as it’s the most looked after gauges along with some of others you already got 👍🏽, looking forward for this.

The trans/diff temp sensor is actually a Sentra coolant temp sensor that you can get at the scrap yard for under $10. The oil pressure sensor can be any 150 psi pressure sensor. Those sensor are connected to a Bluetooth module we have created. This means you don't need to run wires from the engine bay to the interior, which can be tricky and time consuming.

With a GTR nav unit in a G37, there is no way to bring up the MFD screen as the G37 doesn't have the "Function" button. Even if you could bring up the MFD screen only 3-4 gauges will work due to CAN bus differences. Since you have the GTR nav unit in your G37, all you need is the "MFD Converter" module to be able to bring up the MFD gauges and have all but one gauge (brake/accel g) work / display live data. Due to G37 / GTR CAN bus differences, the TPMS menu item / screen will not be displayed. BUT the Nav unit can be reconfigured to show the simple stacked list (ugly!) of tire pressures.

Please let me know where to place my order for the module for the GTR gauges.

Will do!! The prototype is working well and the next step is to finalize the hardware and get a bunch of circuit boards made to test on local (Toronto) G37 and 370z. I want to make sure the G37 with the tech package works as expected. As for the 370, I don't expect any problems... BUT I still want to test on them.

So I believe it’s not possible for my Nissan 370Z 2009 model RHD from Australia?

Correct. The 2009 navigation system is the older version and doesn't have the "GTR gauges" software built into it. For North America, it looks like the first year the 370 that has the newer nav system (known as 08IT) that has the "GTR gauges" is 2010/2011. For other market places like Japan, I don't have any information on that. If all goes well with testing locally, I will look into cars from other market places, to understand the differences, if any.

I have a Q70 2016 3.7L V6 . Do you think it would work or fit ?

@MotorvateDIY

Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure... In looking at a few 2016 Q70 nav screen pics, it looks to be the same nav unit. I would need to have a look at a local car to verify and test.

Probably a silly question, but can we update the nav to the latest maps while we are at it? :P

Sorry, but not with this device. I am looking into ways to update the maps to the latest version... which by the way is 2020. Even though I purchased the Nav update in December of 2022.

Will this work on a 2010 g37x non tech package?

It requires the Navigation package. I will be testing it on a G37 with the Technology package in a few days. I expect it to work, but I won't know for sure until I test it :)

Sorry, but it requires a 2010+ navigation unit as only those units have the GTR software that we use to bring up the gauges.

Are the instructions and software for this available online?

Not yet. I'll create that once local testing (starting at the end of the month) has proven that it works as expected. It has been tested in my G37 for the last year and has worked very well. I'm not an engineer and haven't done anything like this before, so I want to make sure it works as expected.

That's very kind of you! Since my content is focused on the G37/370 my audience is not large. I'm OK with that as I typically get 100 new subs a month and just crossed 15,000 subs. I do wonder, if I purchased a Mustang GT (#2 on the short list) how different the number of subs/views would be.
