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 :)

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
    • Echo the awesome sentiment 👍 Definitely a car worth saving. Looking forward to seeing updates as well.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
