Time is running out,and I need suggestions as to where I'd find Blitz gauges here in Oz to get to Canberra by Wednesday....

I need 3 x 52 mm white faced gauges;1 x water temp,1 x oil temp and 1 x oil pressure.

Any retailers you'd suggest? Anyone got any one/two or three of these in new condition(must be AS NEW)they would like to sell? eBay is out-can't get anything here in time. Our local suppliers are out of what I need and Wednesday is the cutoff...

The clock is ticking!

I got my Blitz oil-temp guage from autobarn just recently. it was the "DC racing meter" electronic type

Thanks,Sambo;we tried AutoBarn,but there's nothing in stock,and if we order it,it'll be a week...not the three days we need 'em in by,unfortunately!

Autobarn in doncaster in Victoria has them in stock.. ( i was there on saturday.. i remember seeing how incredibly over priced they where :O)

im sure if u got it tommorow morning asap and had it courierd it would make it by wednesday afternoon.

Now we're talkin'! Thanks!

Oh,and hender;I know you're trying to help,but...

Jayce, was it you that rang up Autobarn Belco today?

A workmate asked me something about Blitz gauges. I can ring Melbourne tomorrow and ask the performance guys there if they have any in stock and if they can freight them overnight? Can't promise anything, but i'll see what I can do. Otherwise try the Doncaster store, again if you have any problems let me know and our store can talk to them.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
