hmm which temp gauge for oil and which for water?

[Fenvy]

yeah I got a defin din gauge

it has 2 temp gauges, one of them is 30c to 150c and another is 50c to 150c... which one should I use for water and which for oil?

also where do I install the oil pressure sensor? on the s13 sr20det motor, I feel something sticking out on the left side of the oil filter, it's covered in a rubbery thing too, is that it?

I'd use the wider sweep for the water temp.

Yes the sensor is directly about 1 cm to the left of the oil filter.

need to remove the starter to get to it... it's a *****

the water temp sensor will not fit... I'll need an adapter too

[silkk]

That looks pretty good. Good luck on hooking it up!

thats makin me drool. nice choice was it hard to wire up?

[Fenvy]

the gauges themself installs like a radio, except easier... only 4 wires to tap: ground, constant 12v, ignition, illumination

routing the sensors to the cabin isn't too hard either, I zip tied all 3 wires togehter and put it through the firewall somewhere and got it out from the passender side dash

the sensors... I had to switch out oil drain plug really fast to get the oil temp sensor in without losing too much oil. Water temp didn't really fit so I put the stock one back on. oil temp is a ***** since I can't get to it at all so I removed the starter first and then the sensor is easy to get to.
