Nice looking guages. Does a site sponsor carry these?

 

auto rnd (a site sponsor) carries them, I pointed him to this thread... hopefully he can chime in....

 

They look ok but I like the Defi BF's. Why dont you want thoughs again?

 

These do look fine in the dark in terms of blending is with the car's stock gauges, but not when it's light (white vs amber). The red arrow is a definite plus. Also, I do believe that defi's has a blushed aluminum bezel, so they would match the Z's interior even better.
I guess if these are not as expensive it would be a great option.

 

Cheaper then the BF series and they don't require a control unit (which you have to dish out another $100 for). Yes, BF's are great...but many ppl (such as myself) do not need all the bells and whistles in comes with.....

Basically, this is a great option for those who have been searching for the Defi D Series.... I know the replacement for the D Series should be out in September, but Defi is screwing us again...they will only be available with a blue LED backing.

 

The Saga Gauges come in White or Amber Face! Let’s break it down, this is what I was going to go with: Boost, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure (will replace stock gauges with these).

Saga 2.0 (from 500whp.com)
Boost…………$175
Temp………….$95
Oil Pressure….. $185
Control Unit……N/A
Shipping:………FREE
TOTAL……..$455 SHIPPED


Now let’s compare with Defi’s BF Series (egauges.com)

Boost…………$230.40
Temp………….$201.60
Oil Pressure….. $269.10
Control Unit……$97.75
Shipping………..FREE
TOTAL……..$798.85

DIFFERENCE of $343.85 that can go into a wideband.

 

Nice breakdown.

 

guess they will good with my led dash then!
