Motorquipe at whitfords city (NOR) has just opened and when i had a look the other day, i noticed they had some very good opening prices on gauges and the apexi TT, brand new was on special for $159. Thats pretty good, from what i've seen...

they have a medium sized range of autometer gauges and stuff like that, again for pretty good prices. Maybe have a look up there, if its not a huge drive...

Gregg (managing director) is an excellent bloke, i think he is actually on holidays for a little while though, but if your willing to wait maybe a couple of weeks, drop him and email and tell him MirKz sent you and told him to give u a good deal. (he should knock some $$ off for ya).

now where can i get this such gift....?

[bless_you]

get a pivot baby timer for sure.

I got one and pulled the electronics out of it and set it all up behind my clock so that the clock face is now that of the timer and the buttons on the clock mimic that of the timer. ie. power is now reset button etc... looks acool at night too and it hides it out of sight. if you need a hand with it let me know and i can help.

pivot timers have red numbers... not that bad really... breaks up all the bloody blue on the dash.

putting it behind the clock is not so hard as it is figity

you will have to pull apart the clock and make a square hole in the centre of the clocks PCB (printed circuit board). you wil also need to make sure that all tracks are cut which link up all the common rails/tracks on the clock pcb (easier said than done)

once that is done...

to mimic the clock buttons to do what the power, seconds and minutes buttons will do, you will need to solder link wires between the buttons on the clock PCB to the buttons on the timer PCB... once again, easier done that said.

Thats about it! if you have done this correct all you will have to do if put the clock back tp together, with a hole in the back of the black clock case, so that the timer pcb will slot into the whole clock case and put back into the dash as removed.

If you have cut the holes in the clock PCB and clock casing tight enough the timer PCB will hold itself in tight enough, if not you will probably have to affix it to the case do that it doesn't fall out when you break hard

i will post pics toght if i can, otherwise let me know if you are interested and i cann aid you in the creating from hell

I'm definately interested in giving it a go, shame the colour is red, was hoping for a bright blue ...

I just have to wait till I get new bankcards (bastards stole my wallet) before I buy anything.

Will let you know closer to when I get it

What suburb are you in?

[bless_you]

yeah no worries,

just let me know when you want to do it... i would say for you to get it all installed (harness and all) and when that is done you can bring your clock and timer over and i can make the mod for you... should only take about 1 hour. i live in winthrop

[Kaido_RR]

bless_you where do u get a hardness from? i got the baby time from riaz for a killa deal but i need to find a harness :S

[bless_you]

not too sure but i know that you timer should have about 5 or 6 wires (correct me if im wrong) like ign, constant power, ground, acc, and hand-brake coming out of the back of the timer. if you can hook those up and leave enough so that you can cut the wires and re-solder them back again, you should be right. all i will need is the timer itself and the clock.

when i said harness i really ment the wires that come out of the timer. i dont think that i had a terminal block or anything with mine.

hope that helps

Nate, my timer has a plug with 3 metal sticks in it and then the handbrake and ground wire :S it si very wired
