Hey guys, i pick up my first ever Mr2 mk2 on monday, just one question:
It has a small black rev/speedo lcd thing inside by gear stick. It has Apexi on it but i dont know what it does, the previous owner said it is a computer.
Can anyone shed some light on what it does? I can take pics of it on monday but until then just wanna know what it does. Thanks in advance!

they bascially are wired into the ecu harness and give you a digital reading for revs speed also have stop clock etc on them so u can use them for acurate 0 60 as the clock starts when u start moving and stops when u reach 60 so no human time delay on clickin the stop button etc lol

should have got a blackberry
no worries bud, i wouldnt scrap the rsm so quick, iv one fitted to my 2 and its a good bit of kit, main feature being the speed cut over the factory limit (if your cars an import) but all the other bits are just as good
1/4 mile and 0-60mph timers interesting to say the least
p.s thats not quite 0-60, more like 6-60

Thats actually pretty cool, could have abit of fun with that. My car is rev 5 uk spec, full stainless and induction kit, n/a so might get some good times (0-60). Will keep you updated!
