I for one don't like their assorted designs and all the different color options. I think simple white faced gauges look the best; besides, if you look at the gallery, it seems that only people with crappy domestics order those gauges. It looks like they do a good job with custom made gauges for cars that the aftermarket would not normally support, but why not just go and get a set of indiglos off of ebay? By the way, it's spelled "gauges."

My guess would be the only people who would be interested are the ones with the 97/98 240sx since there's only like 1 company that makes aftermarket guages for those years.

Well, I'm assuming that the only people who would/should be interested in replacing the already classy/damn near perfect gauge cluster would be those who have already completed every other modification imaginable. Because, why would ANYONE spend money on something so pointless unless they've got a complete turbo setup, standalone engine management, etc. and everything else under the sun?

What benefit do you gain by changing this? Hmmm...NONE, besides wasting money of course. Use your money for something useful...please.

I personally LOVE the stock S14 SE gauges and will not be changing mine.

Yeah, I love the stock s14 SE gauges.. they are almost perfect except for one thing: The rpm and speed gauge needs finer lines, like every mile instead of a tick for every 5 miles. :)
