Hey kholdstare,

Thank you sir. All my gauge sets include the matching center gauge cluster. No problem putting the name of your car on the gauge-face. Please email me when you get home if you like. I had someone else send me an email to my main address motodata@flash.net and asked if I would make them a silver gauge-face with geen back-lights and green needles too. This silver gauge-face is Metal Flake. Best for me to take some pictures of that in the day tomorrow to really see the metal flakes in the sun. This custom cluster has a red LED under the RPM needle that lights up when you hit the shift light point. I have the shift point set at 2000 RPM in the pictures because it's late at night and I do not want to rev my Z up too much in my driveway.

GIR (Invader Zim) Thanks Bob!

hey i3aog,

That will be fine sir. I made the GaugeCraft color-changing-shift-needle cluster for Mike tonight. Looks great. This uses the same silver gauge-face as in the green cluster in post #62.







Below is another custom GageCraft cluster I made for Ben in Dallas. This is a black gauge-face with blue LEDs and white needles. This also has a red shift light moved to right under the RPM needle.

Installed the cluster today and very happy with it,but only few minor thing that i'm having problem with and need answer..

1. the cluster that Bob made it for me have tmps sensor light,mine doesn't..
also the info gauge in the center does have tire pressure psi display for both F/R, mine have those too...
The question is: can i just add the sensors to the tire and fix this problem?
Any malfuntion light on the car will fail the state inspection

I just was messing around with a cluster and the thing I notice is the speedo & tach have a flat side that is the bottom. Impossible to turn because the odometer and LED's stay in the same place and no way to move them.
With this being said, do you think it is possible to remove the Tach and replace with an aftermarket one in anyway? If you would like to PM me to not clutter this thread up, that's fine. I am in need of a tach that revs to 10k but want to keep everything as clean as possible.

Thanks
Mike

I'm glad to see someone finally made this into a business. After doing my own I thought about it for others but I just don't have the spare time.

As for some folks thinking the price is high - its actually not too bad. This is a ton of tiny soldering work and can be time consuming and if you mess up and fry the board you are out about $500. So unless you know what you are doing you're better off paying someone else to take that gamble.

Good job - keep it up.

I'm not sure if they log on much. I emailed them and they emailed me back in a few hours. I would try shooting an email to them and see what happens.

-Bob
So since they are the same type of LED's as the stock LED's do you need to add any resistors? Thanks!
