rich21 Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 i was watching the news and they had a special about edr's in cars now. similar to the flight recorders on planes. when an accident occurs it records data of the speed, rpms, if you were accelerating, etc.edr dteremines pretty much who's fault it was. they said that they started this 15 years ago. so im wondering can it be in my 94 sc400. can it be in you sc?

AWJ Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 It's the same thing as your ecu. It's all the same kit and caboodle. In 1994, the info is not anything to really worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxTim Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Do newer cars have more advanced features (with OBD II) that cops can actually pull that info out. my cousin got pulled over for weaving & speeding in a parking lot in my aunts acura mdx and the cop said they can pull out the information and see all the data on it. Now I know that theres things that can record that data, but you have to buy it the little thing that goes in the OBD II port, its not just automatically stored right?

AWJ Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 The newer the car, the more info it records. It's not going to be anything major. Drive smart and it's no problem. It's clearly obvious when cars are destroyed that someone was going a little too fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucelee Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 OBD 3 only as I understand it. The newer the car, the more info it records. It's not going to be anything major. Drive smart and it's no problem. It's clearly obvious when cars are destroyed that someone was going a little too fast. ← Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
