Dunno what gauges to get yet.. I like the HKS ones also. And they are a bit cheaper to i think....

Dunno where to mount them either. As on the A piller is a defect, above the dash is a defect. And having a gtr there in no din pocket...

What's legal and what isnt regarding gauge mounting?

i'll probably buy a boost gauge soon, dont think id get any others for now but i was just wondering, what was allowed and what wasnt as far as mounting a gauge goes.

basically (in tassie, prob be the same everywhere else), anything that is 'obstructing' the view, i.e - a-pillar, middle of the dash..

but i've seen some people mount them infront of the speedo/tacho and thats fine...so i assume its anything above the dash lining or whatever..

cheers

I even believe here in South Aust you cant have any mounted to your steering coloum or infront of the dash gauges either

oh ok yeh prob 'obstructing' the speedometer or whatever haha but yeh ive had gauge on the a-pillar and been pulled over heaps of times and haven't had any troubles..but yeh, i think it all depends on the cop

they look really good, where abouts did you get them and the gauge pillar from?

hi m8, bought the guages four or more years ago from import solutions in the uk, they were originally on my rover 220gsi turbo, they are the 52mm ones, called direct bright meter, dont know if they are still made?

the gauge pillar i made myself, took ages, but definitely worth it :)

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
