Dudes,

I had a set of these on my old GTSt (now owned by MattyB). They have a 4 or 5 step change from blue to green and a 4 or 5 step brightness control too. They look awesome at night, and there is no reflection off the windscreen as Gus said the 'hood' of the dash covers them... They are not hard to install as they sit over the top of your existing guages.. Only problem is you either have to cut through the EL to get them over the needles or take the needles off which unless you are ultra careful will result in incorrect speed, revs, temp, fuel etc....

Definately worth the money...

Rice is nice sometimes... ha ha ha

If we're looking at Jan/Feb then I'll be in for $200 for EL Kit also...I've wanted some for AGES!

fane,

We can do ours together, I've done some before!*

*Cannot gaurantee accurate speedo afterwards tho! (it's a bitch!)

Did you guys know that auto works in wangarra are agents for UAS so you can order the parts and pay for them once they arrive in WA.I got my white faced gauges from there a while ago. :D

GDay Guys,

Have not read the whole post but if you want EL guages with all the standard features. You need to go to CarQuest in East Perth. 9 Piccadilly Sq. $160 and no need to remove any needles as the hole in the centre slides over.

    • It's good, but not as good as some people make it out to be on social media. Yes, you can feel the torque come in earlier, yes, it does make the car feel more lively below 4000rpm, and yes, it does feel more responsive, but it's not this 'unicorn' mod.  Everyday driving? Below 100km/h on Australian roads, it's worth it. At 110km in 6th gear mine will sit on about 2860rpm. Doing a Motorkhana or a small circuit? Yes, it's worth it. Doing Texas style speed runs? Prob not. Do you use the gears more? Yes and No. Doing 60/70km on most roads, I'm using the gears just like any other Getrag. 80km and above, you use 5th and 6th more often. Absolutely no issues driving with the 33 A-LSD. Didn't change the front diff, only changed the C&P wheel. Some people say to upgrade to a Quaife etc, but i've had no issue with torque steer or having it wander all over the road. The one thing that no-one really addresses is the issue of the Speedo being out. It's either use a speedo corrector, find a 33 gearbox speed sensor, or use an aftermarket display with GPS speedo.
    • Anyone know or have the timing specs for these cams?   i have messaged JUN for two months with zero response    they are 288in/288ex 11.6 lift
    • That would be a rarity. You can emulate the function of the stalk just by bridging the appropriate pins in the connector. If you can make it function correctly by doing so, then the wiring etc is OK and it is the stalk.
    • I've had these LEDs and a LED EP34 flasher relay in the car since 2020. No fuses were popped either. I'll multimeter and clean off the tarnish tomorrow. From how the lights were acting after I diddle the stick make me lean towards a stalk problem.
    • Are you sure you can use LEDs in the indicator lamps? On a car that old? It doesn't work on many old cars because the indicator relay can't cope with the wrong impedance out at the lamp positions and the LEDs will happily light up even with minimal current flowing through the indicator relay. And when I say "indicator relay" I mean the flasher, not a relay relay. Beyond that, I would say that you have caused yourself a wiring fault and that you would be well advised to work through the wiring diagram and the actual loom with a multimeter.
