Default Cool new stuff for our Zs.

I was just out at JapanParts.com and noticed that they are redoing their site. It seems that there is some cool new stuff available for our Zs...and their prices have come down. For NISMO parts, it apears that it may actually be cheaper to have stuff shipped from them in Japan then to buy it here.

Check it out some of these examples...

Nismo

Those analog guages from the pic looks nice and clean wouldn't mind taking out my digital ones and changing them to those... but then I would lose my multi function guage..

Yeah, the gauges are cool... I couldn't find the guages themselves on the japanparts.com site but I would imagine that they are seperate gauges so they could possibly go on US Zs as well.

The housing is obviously JDM but it's nice to see some of the stuff that is being created for JDM Zs. Maybe the US will be get some stuff like that in the future...or maybe someone from this board will make it for us.

Those gauges in the pics are by Defi. Believe they are 60mm size. This makes me think any 60 mm guage will fit...

This is a typo because if you go to the IMPUL site, they list this OHLINS set for the Z33.

The Ohlins suspension is the Nissan R-tune setup. I am trying to get this ASAP. There will be an S-Tune for sale pretty soon!!

Those gauges are HOT!!! Is there any reason we couldn't replace the battery charge and oil pressure gauges with 60 mm gauges frrom Pep Boys??

Do you guys think the wiring would work? Is that kind of stuff standard like 4 - 20 mA or something like that?
