I think you mean VELNAS and it's an onboard trip computer commonly found on Jap import versions of the Starions and earlier import Scorpion turbos.

Ah, now I got it. I guess its typical Jap bling eh? Any pics in the forum of these velnas? Is that an obvious Acronym for something?

Velna is a Ukranian Prostitute LOL


No seriously, as DG said, VELNAS is an onboard computer.

VELNAS - Vehicle Electronic Navigation System

It does computations for kilometres travelled, average speed, fuel economy, has an alarm and stopwatch functions, and for me most importantly, does distance and lap/stage timing!

Here's a crappy pic of it, below the radio (not my pic, mine has a silver fascia).

The output comes up on the small display that resides where the normal digital clock in housed. A huge single line of information, about the same size characters as the clock.

Sorry to disappoint you mate but there's not really much to see...
