Makin some custom S13 gauge mounts (pics)

[SloS13]

You get the idea

[[Zero-S]]

What kind of guages would you put in there...I know those are the AC vents, but they're kinda small... Hope to see the finished product...nice WIP.

[SloS13]

i havent decided yet. there's gonna be an SR20DET and big turbo in there all within the next 6 months

i've got:A/F <---cool blinky lightsOil pressureBoostEGT

I also needFuel pressureCoolant Temp <---not sure if i'll need/get this oneWideband output

but im not sure whats going where yet. Thats 5 or 6 gauges right there. I like to be informed about whats goin on

[[Zero-S]]

But all you're using are the A/C vents, riiiiight? All I'll need are a boost gauge and oil pressure, so if you finish I might borrow your idea...

[SloS13]

yeah, just those two ac vents. i figure i can get a dual pod for 2 more gauges and stick 1 or two more under the radio or somewhere

[[Zero-S]]

Sweet...I'm putting my engine management console underneath my radio.

[fast_s13]

2" gauges wont fit under the radio done tried it

[[Zero-S]]

dam-nit. Even if you take out the tray underneath?? Or were you talking to j92?

[SloS13]

i'll figure out someplace to put them buggars. passenger dash would be cool but id have to think of some neat-o way for them to be at a 30 degree angle or something so i can see them easier

[MainEvent212]

with an S14 u can put them in that blank space after the shifter...towards the arm rest...

[BuudWeizErr]

Damn, how much would you charge to do that to mine? I want two more, EGT and Fuel Pressure, but I know what you mean about the A/F being blinky lights. Mine tells me absolutely nothing.

well, we'll have to see how well mine turns out but if it turns out i could prolly do one for like $75. Dunno for sure tho because it could be hours and hours of hand-sanding.

[SloS13]

got some more done today. wooo

[UnderPressure]

im just gonna get a 3 gauge mount from http://www.carbontrix.com it looks clean, it moves, and you can paint it to match or contrast your dash. i think it would look clean on the s13 dash. . . . hmm gray and black.

[SloS13]

Finally found the color i want to use. j/k thats primer. lol

[Anand]

that's looking reall nice!!! good job on that... can't wait to see the final product...

[SloS13]

not the best pic, came out a little glossier than i would have liked (looks worse than it is because of the flash)

[Anand]

dood... that looks really nice.. who cares about the glossy part... that looks sweet... I'm going to jack your idea.. he he...

[SilviaLuvr]

that looks really good bro! (personaly) I would of just used the space underneath of the headunit. thats just me cause im lazy.

[mickee]

did you use flat black??? im assuming not... that wouldve been ur best bet...

nevertheless it was a great DIY....

if i ever get other gauges.... i was either thinking a pillar or on my dash... it needs to be recovered anyway so matters well put round holes on it while doing so....

again good job on the DIY
