GPdriver1986 Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 I was just curious as to what the differences are with the DIC's. Ive got 2 questions 1)Whats the difference between 88-93 GP DIC in terms of features (maintenance,fuel economy,date,etc), vs 94-96? 2)Can a 88-93 GP DIC be put in a different GM car (this would be custom)and would it have to be a car that has a w-body engine?

GPdriver1986 Posted July 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 does the 88-93 tell you the exterior temp too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPdriver1986 Posted July 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 That sucks, I like how RossGT put both DIC's in so he would have all of the features. But I still want to know if the DIC can be put in a different GM car other than a W? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 That sucks, I like how RossGT put both DIC's in so he would have all of the features. But I still want to know if the DIC can be put in a different GM car other than a W? Not every feature of the older DIC works in my car becuase the cumputer input is different. I wanted to older one in so that I get the color screen, compass, calender and service reminders. Those are all the things that the newer DIC doesn't offer. On the old one, the range and fuel economy doesnt work right, everything else does. I have the newer DIC for all the trip stuff like fuel used, econ, etc. Ive heard of people putting the older DIC into other w-bodies, but not other types of cars. It would be hell to wire and I doubt all the fuel stuff would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPdriver1986 Posted July 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 Ya but lets say I had a cavalier Z24 with the 3.1, basicly its the same engine as the GP and it does have the same sensors. So if all the wiring was made it might work, isn't that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitaloutsider Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 It has nothing to do with the sensors. It has everything to do with your firewall wiring block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPdriver1986 Posted July 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 http://pages.prodigy.net/gearhead43/DavesGP/dic.html I was looking at this site and most of the wiring on DIC is basicly Dimmer, lights, power, ground,E/M switch,some STE stuff and VSS signal. All of this can be connected with time to any car, I might try it out if I get a different car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
