Corvette Gauges - Start Up

[JekHawkins]

Does it gauge sweep on power on or engine start? Seems to be on engine start, which irks me. :P

[bessniak]

thats gauge test i like it ! from 0-205 mph only in 1 second pretty fast...

[TehVikingsOwn]

if i had a c6 i would have the start up say "FUCK IMPORTS"

[bismillahmashallah]

@TehVikingsOwn And thats why u don't have 1 :)

[wokeupthismorning100]

@TehVikingsOwn LOL

[spencer769]

That gauge sweep is so fast yet sophisticated. I also love the GM chime... It's not overwhelming like my Accord's (I love my Honda though;) but this is an amazing car! Congratulations Andy!!!:)

[Deltari09]

Nice to meet you, Andy! :D

[TVRnGTR]

0-200 mph in 1 second in 1 gear without the engine even running.

[lucasspeeder]

@TVRnGTR dont be stupid



[TVRnGTR]

@lucasspeeder fuck you too

[eragon1518]

0-200 in 1 second. lol jk

[summened]

Fastest 0-200mph I've ever seen:D lol!!

[TheGiraffe19]

Hey my name is andy too. Haha

[poeppolitie]

OMG lol it said your name didnt it??

[ajpasqual]

@poeppolitie Yes, in the menu you can program depending on what key you use a message, you can write your name or something else to pop up at start up.

[poeppolitie]

Cool!

[acres90]

@ajpasqual CAN U DO THAT ON A C5?

[acres90]

@acres90 ok...i guess not

[bschoolchris1]

wtf? did it say your name???

[wecangetgangsta]

its possible to put a test sweep on any modern car now if you know what your doing lol cause i dont

[wecangetgangsta]

scb like 9 months ago yea its possible you have to re-program the ecu to do a test sweep on startup believe me i want my 350z gauges to do the same im just tryin to figure out how to do it lol

[HaloSpartan86]

the zr2 was real i believe i looked it up on wikipedia but it didnt come with an ls6. the ls6 was first in the c5 z06 it didnt even exist in the times of the c3

[j45007]

Nice how it says Chevrolet on the digital screen!!

[scb10108]

Question: im trying to find a way to make my dodge ram startup like that with the needles i would like to have them all max out and fall when the truck starts like the vette and various other cars is this a prgram inside the car or do u know? Thanks,

[573W1E6R1FF1N]

Its a GM Feature

[scb10108]

My best friend's tc has it as well? is it a program?

[ubcs109]

yea its on a friends mustang...the wierd thing is, it only does it once in a while.

[Tom672]

It's a gauge sweep. Some cars have it (all subarus, most pontiacs, others). You can't really program it in a car.

[nch556]

OMG! 200 MILES AN HOUR My little Saturn only goes 130!

[Anonymous1226]

@nch556 Just because it says 130 on the gauge, doesn't mean it will actually go 130.

[Tom672]

Does this have the "Ice Possible: Drive with care" indicatior? I always thought that was neat on my grandma's Lucerne.

[MisterE87]

My Lancer has that. Except it shows a snowflake above the road and says Possible Icy Roads

[vettedude418]

just says ice possible on the radio

[Iridium725]

Is there a button you press on the dash somewhere that switches from MPH to KPH?

[Starsandstraps31]

Yes

[JOBOB5764]

Wow so cool much different than my dad 80' corvette :)

[BXV2009]

If you don't mind me asking, does your Corvette supercharged or not? Nice rev up towards the end, by the way! ;-)

[ls1maro99]

the only vette every made with a supercharger is the new zr-1 corvettes...

[BXV2009]

Oh, okay. Sorry - I don't know much about the C6 as I do about the ZO6.

[ls1maro99]

the c6 just stands for 6th generation corvette... the z06 is the performance type of corvette.. there's a c5 z06 and a c6 z06...

[BXV2009]

Oh, okay.  Thanks.

[vettedude418]

and a c3 zo6, and if im right, a c3 zr1 AND zr2

[ls1maro99]

z06's only came in c5 models.. 01-04.. and c6 models 06+.. the zr-1's came 90-95 c4 with the lt5 engine and now theres the new zr-1 for 09 with the ls9... zr2??? dont think there is such a thing from what i know...

[vettedude418]

Yea i think i was wrong about the c3 zo6 but there was a zr1 c3 which had an lt1 engine, and a zr2 with an ls6 engine plus various other improvements

[ls1maro99]

for your name being vettedude you dont really know a whole lot no offense.. the c5 z06's came with the ls6.. the first years of the z06's were the c5's 01-04, and there is the c4 zr-1 which came with the lt5 engine... dohc 5.7 i believe...

[vettedude418]

there were options titled "zo7" for the c3, and there was a zr1 and zr2 package, look it up bud, it happened

[ls1maro99]

your statement doesnt even make sense though... your saying z06 or "z07" for the 3rd generation corvette and the z06 didnt even come into this world until half way through the 5th generation corvette....

[MattyMeatpie]

@ls1maro99 yea, and my dick head friend bought one too

[TMAmusicInc]

freaked me and my dad out when the gauges flew up like that in our 07 haha. We thought it was broken at first but it was calibrating :)
