Anyone know what brand Dual or Single guage pods that best suit an R33 GTS25t for 60mm guages? Something that fits nicely and looks good... also what are prices and where do you recommend buying them from? I am in Perth. Any pictures would be great.

I got a trust 60mm single universal guage pod from makspeed in melbourne (check the perfomance shops / wreckers in vic thread in the victoria forum). cost me $88, and i cut the prick down so that the shape matched my pillar. then i stuck 2 matal brackets with fibre glass on (one that slots b/w the pillar and the dash, and the other wraps around the pillar on the windscreen side). On the other side that goes towards the door, I stuck a piece of leather (b/c it streches only a little) and put a small bracket on that so it clips on that side. This way I made no holes or damage to my pillar. It fits VERY nicely and looks very professional. If I had a digital camera or access to one I would take pics and show off, but unfortunately, I dont :P

If you cant be stuffed doing all that (for me its a hobby), they sell dual pillar pods for R33's that fit straight on for about $130.

Look at this thread. Makspeed is listed in there, they are in little bourke street. There is also an outlet in Maribyrnong, but that is mostly a workshop, and they dont really have any thing like that for sale there....

The one in Bourke st is b/w exhibition st and russel st

so you have an R33?

doesnt the trust universal single pillar panel really fit nicely? needs a bit of cutting does it? what do you ppl with dual guages find the most useful? boost + (voltage/exhaust temp/oil or fuel pressure etc.. )

Yeah b005t, R33!

I got the universal for 2 reasons:

- didnt want to pay a ridiculous price for a piece of fibleglass!

- only wanted 1 guage. This way you also save from buying another guage that you dont really want anyway...

At first, i was a bit cheesed that i had to cut it down, but in the end, i was glad that i took that approach b/c now it looks better than i hoped it would, and it is much smaller than oroginal size making look even neater! This way I made my own custom brackets to hold it on, and I didnt have to touch the pillar at all!

I try grab a digital camera here from work and take a pic for ya.

    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
