I have seen one of these installed in a '92 Celica. With all the features that it comes with I am seriously thinking about buying one myself.

That last one is just a turbo timer. The apexi stuff is excellent...as far as turbo timers go HKS type 1 looks not to bad either.

Yeah, ive heard the HKS stuff is pretty good, but i want to stick with APex'i cause i know a few other people with the pen type and i love it, its nice and easy.. they are my options.. the pen type is bout 200 bucks, and the other screen is bout 400 new with adapters.. it has a few more features, but i'd rather stick with the pen one as im selling the car later on..

the Pen Time Apex'i Timer ( the last one) does Timer, does battery voltage, o2 Sensor, and a few other things.. i alreayd have the bitsamissing turbo timer ( like the Scorpion Gsr one) but im going to donate it to my mate in the end.. heres the details form the site on what the pen type does...

from www.flyn.com.au
then e catalogue, then turbo timers, then scroll down

The A'PEXi Auto Timer stands as a technological marvel. The pen shaped, compact size makes the Auto Timer one of the smallest turbo timers on the market. This allows a clean and stylish installation virtually anywhere inside the car. The unique multi angle joystick button allows easy navigation through the many feature menus. Upgraded in every way from the previous model, the new Auto Timer can automatically determine the necessary amount of after idling time. A Manual Mode allows the user to preset desired idling times from 0 sec.~10 minutes in 16 increments. By inputting O2 sensor voltage, the Timer can also display theoretical air fuel ratio. Since the Auto Timer uses the factory O2 sensor which is primarily designed for emissions, the readings may not be as accurate when the O2 sensor is cold. A'PEXi recommends that the O2 sensor readings be compared to a high grade "tuning" O2 sensor for comparison. The Timer can also display critical data such as O2 sensor voltage and Battery Voltage. To prevent potential theft while running, the handbrake safety feature shuts off the vehicle when the handbrake is released without the ignition key.

RRP AUD$250

NOW AUD$193

you can pick one up over at vivid for $89 and like $30 for the harness, installed mine yesterday, they have the cheapest price on this i could find, thing kicks major ***, hand brake safety feature is very comforting and works flawlessly.
