Too late for that kind of question. We have it right now, and we want it to work

I'm optimistic that someone will figure out how to unlock it for use while in motion.

So does Jered. Although apparently his big cell mate prefers "tuna sub" spelled backward on Jered's face.

Techstream has no option for customizing the multi-information display(G-meter) that I have found. Hope someone can figure a hack or workaround for displaying it while moving. Or Subaru decides we are worthy in a future software update.

So this video shows the 86, does theirs work out of the box? I mean, we can reset our graph on the BRZ but can only see the new g's 'squiggle' after a run..

Tried it again today. It's actually running realtime and I get realtime monitor while parked. The moment I started moving it changes to the hp/torque graph but I bet it's running in the background... just that that screen is overlayed.

Yes, that's correct. Gotta believe it was a post-design decision to disable it while moving. Wonder if NHSTA can get involved on this type stuff?

Referring to my coding thread...if someone knows how to break into it, I'm sure it's a flag to disable!
