youll flip out when the guage starts to play up, somedays it shows normal, and somedays it shows half what it should be (aka 1 when idle, 2 or 3 when driving) just remember its just the guage.

mine does this

cant remember what the stock gauge measurement is

the greddy gauge is in kPa.

kPa kilopascals x 0.145 = poundforce per square inch lbf/in2 i think :D

(someone correct me if im wrong)

Yeah you is correct.

1 atmosphere = 0.98 bar

1 kg/cm2 = 0.98 bar

1 bar = 14.503 psi = 100kpa

1 psi = 6.89 kpa

im assuming the op is referring to the stock gauge... I've heard mixed opinions that its not always accurate then again some have said the stock gauge is more accurate than aftermarket gauges.

I call BS.

More accurate than some chinese POS maybe, but I would even trust one of those over the stock gauge.

yep fair enough, thats what i've read a few times / heard from a few people. I just go off my greddy gauge.

I have noticed that there is a slight difference between readings on the stock and aftermarket one..but its not a massive difference.

On the topic, are the stock gauges a one-piece assembly? Or does each gauge, ie fuel, temp, taco, speedo, oil pressure, have it's own self contained unit? Would like to change my stock oil, temp and taco for autometer items. Anyone done this? Time to take the cluster out I guess lol...

Don't think it could be done without a lot of hacking/cutting/etc.. get a cheap 2nd hand cluster and give it a bash heh

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
