just came in today from Z1 Auto: props to Adam!

install later this week.

i got the Boost, Fuel Pressure, and Oil Temp gauges... along with the Heads up display.. and control unit II



install and review coming soon .. im really interested in how well the HUD does--

 

Those look like the same guages as ACP's, are they? If so, those will look awesome!

 

Hey Cheston,

Where are you mounting this?

 

they looks so big!!! like...4 inch in diameter. if they're smaller, where are they being installed? on the A-catapillar?

 

You're kidding right They look like the 3 guages that will go in place of the factory cluster with the trip computer, oil pressure, and battery voltage.

 

those look nice, where are you putting them?

 

this is the same setup ACP has, though Cheston also got the VSD Concept, which can display the data in a heads up format on the windshield - really trick piece. with the VSD Concept, you don;t have a "need" for the gauges themsevles (though you still need the sensors). Since Cheston likes to change the looks of his car a bit more often that most of us, and the price for the gauges are not all that much more than just buying the sensor sets, it made sense for him to get the full gauges, then decide how/when he will mount them

The gauges are 60mm BTW

These will surely compliment an already SWEET car!

Adam

 

Hey Cheston,

I just got my gauges also, and I have ordered a dual pillar...but it looks like you are going to go the same way ACP did and mount in the area of the stock gauges. Is this true? If it isnt are you going to mount them on the autometer triple pillar? Also, look at your boost gauge, I just noticed on mine that it only goes up to 2psi...WTF....does this change or have the ability to change? Mine are the ones that dissapear when the engine is shut off.

Holla at ya boy!!

 

Only 2 psi??? Not even stock FI cars run that low. Maybe they meant Bar and messed it up.

 

Ray-

do you mean 2.0 BAR? ... aka 29.4psi

we should be seeing around .7 to .9 bar, depending on what your boost settings are-



i will try to mount the boost somewhere. but i will be using the HUD for the other gauges... i just got the displays so i can change my mind in the future-

yes. they are 60mm, but the face of the gauges are ~ 66mm ~ 2 5/8inches

i have my old maxima dual autometer pod that i'll be hacking up to see if i can make a mold of the pods in CF

 

Oh sweet, those Defi gauges are going to look sweet...those are the ones that are digital and blue right?

 

I was also told that you could buy the autometer 52mm pillar and it could be bored out. I was shown one when I went to Dynamic auto in Lake Forest. I have ordered a dual pillar for the Boost and egt gauges.

Did you see ACP's car and where he mounted his? He put them where the stock gauges used to be.....SWEEEEETTT!!

 

i want to keep my multi gauge, and the oil pressure.. the volts suck.. but eh.. its all one piece behind there.. so i will just mount my boost somewhere and use the VSD concept for the other monitoring...

 

Nice! Can't wait to see some pics. When do you expect to have these in, Chebosto?

 

Those are some sweeeeet gauges.
