Looks nice. It's hard to tell because the pic is dark, but would you be able to fit the boost gauge ??
Those gauges look like they are waiting to be used (and abused)
:D :D :D

Your car will be a real sleeper. Make sure you get some 1/4 mile testing in there.

I'm so anxious to see it. OMG, it feels like I'm getting it in my car.(I wish)

Thanx

Where did you get the plate to put the gauges in under the radio. I have just a pocket there right now since I installed my new deck and would love to put some gauges there. Any help you give me would be appreciated. Thanks

THEGOLDPRO February-6th-2003 10:28 AM

thats my stock din pocket. it has a little hinged door that flips up on it. i have a 99 pro lx, so im assuming you could just buy the one from my car, or if you want you could cut a piece of like aluminum to fit the pocket, and cut the holes into that. i hope that helped.

JasonKilpa February-6th-2003 11:17 AM

Yeah I will try to cut some aluminum to fit in there. Thanks for the suggestion.

Your oil gauge looks to be of the mechanical variety...did you have any trouble with the installation of the oil line? What type of line did you use?

THEGOLDPRO February-6th-2003 09:04 PM

i did have a little trouble, i had to go to napa and pick up like a 30 cent part to make it work right. there is an oil pressure censor right next to my oil filter, it had a singal wire going to it. so if you take off the wire you will have the oil dummy light on all the time. now the oil pressure guage came with a line, and an oil fitting to fit in the place of the orriginal oil censor. so i went out and bought a t fitting, with two male ends and one female end. put the female end in the spot where the original censor was. then screwed the original censor in one male end and the new oil line that came with the guage in the other male end. so now the guage works fine, and i have no dummy light on. i hope that wasn't too confusing.

how the hell do you work in that small space? did you take your filter out? its way to friggin small to do any kinda work under there. how big was your after market sender? mine is like a 3inch canister thing.. its massive, i don't know if i can fit that on to a "T" splitter along with the stock sensor

you know i was going to put my boost gauge in there, then i bought a water temp gauge, and the gauge piller. so i used it in the gauge piller, im thinking of putting an exhaust temp gauge in there. maybe in the future.
