Looks Great, love the gauges

 

are they as accurate as the gauges it comes with?

i know zip about the different gauge companies.

i have the red/black interior. and this just matches perfectly.

jorge you are the freaking man!!!! great DIY!! Im jealous now

 

Woot! Great writeup, Jorge! Amost missed this thread.

Gonna have to make it to one of the LAX meets to see this (when you decide to go, that is) LOL.

 

Sticky!!!

 

I realy liked the set up and instructions, thanks.

I was thinking about doing something similar but was looking at getting dual digital guages so I can get all my guages in one place. I am considering going FI at some point so I would want, boost, a/f ratio, oil temp and pressure and water temp. I found that SPA makes dual digital guages but they are expensive and I did not find an a/f ratio guage. They have a dual oil temp and pressure guage, dual water temp and boost and they have some egt temp guages and volt guages just no a/f guages. I could go with dual oil temp and pressure guage, dual water temp and boost and then put another brand a/f guage in there but I would want a uniform look.

Does anybody know any other company that makes good dual guages? I think the 2 spa guages I listed would come to about $500. I would like to less and I wanted the af ratio guage not just an EGT guage.

Thoughts?

 

thanks man! I was wonderin' if you'd notice those...

Thanks Shinx, that's a heck of a compliment coming from you and that gorgeous car of yours

Couldn't agree more. These gauges aren't designed to be watched the entire time so when I do take my eyes the road for a second, it's nice to be able to see the reading quickly

Thanks man!! You know what a perfectionist I am with my mods.

so when are you ordering yours??? haha, thanks man!


HAHA, thanks man! I owe a lot of it to you for the great pics and advice on where to ground everything.

highway: check out the long thread on the RB pod; quite a few people have it and have been using different gauges then I did. This thread is specifically about the Nordskog so I don't want to side track the thread too much. I'll PM you a link. Thanks!

 

NICE!!!!! (As usual)

 

Not only is he a Jedi master, and vicious with a light saber . . .But he can work on cars too.

Such a nice job. Love the look. This look is factory stock. The fit, the color match, everything is top notch.

Good job and a great DIY.

 

Sweet setup Jorge! I'm jealous.. we gotta do lunch sometime soon (so I can see these in action!) =D

I hope the mods sticky this.! It's the only thread that shows how to properly ground / install electrical gauges...

 

One more for stickyness....


Those gauges as well as the write-up are schweeet! Excellent job Jorge!

 

yeaaa, why isnt this a sticky?

 

see if i can help on this.

requested move to diy section and sticky.

Thanks Swoope!

Problem is that img tags don't work in the DIY section which is why I posted it here. Figured the bigger pictures were easier to see then clicking all the small thumbnails at the bottom.

Here's the post from Zoom about img tags + DIY section: https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...83&postcount=4

 

Awesome job, Jedi! The force is clearly with you. Moving to DIY forum, for all posterity, ans stickying it for a week or so. :D

 

Yea Yea!!

 

Thanks Omicron!

D'oh!!! Just noticed all my pics went away. Any chance of getting this sticked in the Interior / Electronics forum instead?

Thanks again guys for all the support.

 

did not know that. i bet omni can fix the pic problem.. as what good is a diy forum without pics. and glad to help..

ah i get it now.. maybe you could upload the pics in diy. and get a sticky in the elec. forum.

Good looking setup and great DIY. I've been wanting some gauges for a while and these look great.
Thanks Jedi.

 

Yeah, stickiness, finally --- well, at least for awhile

Too bad there isn't a way to position pics (that's been uploaded to the forum) within the text of a post. I think DIYs flow much better that way.

 

Moved it back for now...we'll get it all sorted out

 

dude those gauges look so nice in there. Do they fit perfectly flush or is there some overlapping?

 

thanks Ross. Those bad boys sit nice and flush.

 

Very sexy
