S13 Triple Gauge Pillar or Dash Vent Pod

[sjbsuperman1425]

so im looking for something to mount my boost gauge i bought the otherday, and i know FOR SURE i'll be getting more so i dont want to just get one..so here is what im debating on. its either a Glow Shift Direct Triple Gauge Pillar, or a CNC aluminum vent gauge pod that goes where the dash vents go from eBay. Let me know what you think! here are the links.

I think the vent mount looks so much cleaner

Vent

[sjbsuperman1425]

thats what i thought, just wanted to see what others thought and it only took two! lol

btw, ag240, i like your little bit about the R34 and blue graphics. i know im doing it lol

I say vent. I'll be going the vent route. Can't find the part that angles the gauges toward you though. I know summit has it, but didn't have any luck tracking it on their site.

vent ftw.

you guys think that this would fit beneath the radio? or should i just get one of these..?

i have one boost gauge and am thinking of getting another one

[Warped161]

it should, might or you could do this.and you can get the angled rings from ebay, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...49657

[sjbsuperman1425]

i like that idea, but i want to keep the CD Player. did the gauges hook-up easily for the oil and water? i have a Faze Boost myself

[Warped161]

actually i never got them in the car, i pulled my motor recently and am selling the whole set of gauges plus the faze controller.

[sjbsuperman1425]

how much you want for the a/f gauge and oil pressure shipped to 48708?

[Warped161]

i really want to sell them all as a set, i kinda need the money for my motor and i just think i'll get more for them together. there's the three you see plus a boost gauge and the faze controller, asking 160 plus shipping for all.

[CSUPUEBLOTIM]

sweet gonna order me some of those angle rings. I from personal experience would invest in a better boost gauge. My faze used to stick all the time and I would have to tap on it a few times.

[sjbsuperman1425]

yea i got the boost gauge, thats why i was looking to get two more lollet me know if you ever decide to part them out!

[veebee]

that's my setup and i love it

Thank you!

[Warped161]

your welcome all.

[Nacho_240]

your welcome all.

Great find on the angle rings. It's too bad I mounted my 3 gauges underneath the radio. It's a pretty tight fit and I doubt I could fit those rings now.

I say get both.

[Crautz240]

I think those angled ones look really good... but veebee dammm that is nice lol

[Clawhammer]

I was gonna mount mine in a din below the radio, or maybe in the vent. However I ended up going with a pillar pod even though I don't like the look of them etc. etc.

However, after doing it, I'm 100% glad I ended up the route I did. I don't have to move my head to check my gauges, I just shift my eyes to the left.

Heads up ftw. Safety first. Function > form. Etcetera.

[sjbsuperman1425]

hey i just got my vent pod today and was wondering how you guys get it to stay in the spot? it sits in there but if i touch it or if i would go over a bump, it'd fall out? any ideas (btw i dont have any gauges in it yet)

Thanks

[DOOM240sx]

Piller pod = break my window and rob me.

No thanks ill pass....

[sjbsuperman1425]

well i'll eventually get the Pillar Pods lol.. but i would just like to know how to properly secure the Vent Gauge Pod in the dash

[r34 gtr]

Why not get a single din plate and three 52mm gauges? Then you don't clutter up the a-pillar, you still have dash vents, and you can still have your stereo in the same spot.

[sjbsuperman1425]

i already have the Triple Gauge Pod that replaces the A/C vents above the climate control. and i dont have A/C or Heat so i dont see the need for the vents. I just want to know if there is anyway to get the vent pod to sit in the vent space nice and tight?

[lrb_2000]

vent... and gauge pod.. haha

mine

[sjbsuperman1425]

did you just set it in there and it stayed perfect? i think my dash is a little warped right there and maybe thats why? it'll sit but if i touch it or anything it falls?

Hot glue? Double sided taps? Screws? You got options.
