Gauges

Can everyone who had their engine upgrade post their gauges pics?
I mean the water/oil temp gauges, and the boost...

^_^
thanx...
i might be installing it too...b/c i think it's safer to know when the car is up to the temp for full throttle... especially if u're running 700HP +

thanx in advance...

I've seen some awesome gauge clusters where the useless tape storage area is in someone's car here. Where does one get one of those bad boys?

Yeah Luting have Stephen whip you up something. the digital dakota stuff he uses is really cool. I have just the boost gauge but he can do all kinds of stuff custom.

yeah... a digital gauge would be cool...
imagine if you can have 3 digital gauge like this



I drew it myself with photoshop...sorry...it's kinda bad...hahaha
but have three of these (boost, water temp, oil temp, egt, or oil pressure....whatever i need the most)....custom fit on the side panel with leather surrounding should look good....

Someone on this board has a separate cluster of smaller gauges on the lower center console (cassette holder delete, essentially), and it looks awesome - I can't remember who, but it's obviously someone with a lot of mods. I thought perhaps sharkster, but he replied to this thread and would have posted it, plus I think he has only one extra gauge.

hey luting have u ever tried to use defi-gauges they are pretty good since you only need one control unit which u can hide and you can install a boost, oil pressure, water temp, oil temp gagues EGT's, etc,

you can check out

http://www.defi-shop.com/

tyou can run it as a daisy chain style so u dont have to run too many wires, i have herd great things from people about the defi-gauges,, but i have not yet personally used them, i was gonna use it on mysupra turbo, but i am an HKS fanatic so i stuck with HKS

here's a pic of the daisy chain

Buddy has the red turbo with the gauges in the center/ if it wasn't him there was a silver stage 4 car with techart pices that had the center gauges..... I'm pretty sure it was the silver 1 and the guys from PES had done it.
