If you dont mind buying on the internet, the cheapest place i have found is Perfect Run at about $385 including the control unit 2. Also xspeed have just the gauge for $218 +10% GST, there located in WA, but have an online catalogue.

u need the control unit 2 to do the light up display for the BF series gauges dont u ?  

and u need it anyway if u wanna hook up two gauges? an elec one (oil temp say) and mech (boost) ?

All the BF gauges are electrical as far as i know, including the boost gauge. And you definately need the control unit 2 to run the gauges at all. The unit can run up to 6 off it i think?

Prices from Xspeed website:

Control Unit 2: $181.82

Boost: $218.18

Water Temp and oil temp: $172.73

Ex. Temp, oil press and fuel press: $290.91

But you must add 10% for GST. And i guess because they are already in the country there is not chance of having to pay duty?

I think perfect run are the cheapest for the control unit 2, at 9500 yen.

Im getting the boost gauge soon, if you end up getting the gauges i would be interested in finding out how hard installing them is and also if you get everything you need (sensors etc) in the kit.

PS Dont tell anyone but xspeed also have copy Do luck type 2 kits for R32 for about $1200. Have to keep it quiet or else everyone will end up with them before i have had a chance to save up. ;-)

There is a new web based company opening up with some great pricing and service. Their sight isn't complete yet but I emailed them and bought an ARC intercooler for an EVO 2 at a top price. Their web which is under construction is www.runway7.com.au

You can email them at [email protected]

Hope this helps.

    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
    • Plan B? Get someone to machine up a metal bush/collar/whatever it needs to be to replace the rubber? I haven't had a close look at that part recently to have a proper feel for whether that's possible. But it might be easy.
    • I do not want to install a short shifter and the only other stock throw shifter I have seen is the Nismo "Rigid shifter" for $290 So plan A is to fill it with sikaflex to stiffen it up and hope for the best
