question about white face guages

[pseudo]

I'm looking to get a set of them. I found the set pictured here on ebay for a decent price, but they don't look exactly like my guages. Actually, they do LOOK exactly like my guages, but my gas and temp guages are on opposite sides from what that picture shows.

Has anyone here purchased this set? Or another set even? Where did you get them? How much did you pay? You know, the usual stuff.

Thanks!

I did not know that. But thanks, I'll check them out.

I did a few searches on this topic and didn't find anything that stood out. I'm a search nazi normally.

i think that you should leave your stock gauges!

welcome to nico.

That pic is probably just an example. You dont have a 7000rpm redline either. (I know S14 doesnt, but I dont think the S13 does either)

Check out our sponsor. I'm sure they'll take care of you...

S13s have a 6900rpm redline.

look at that beautiful redline

*NOTE: Not my car, found on google

[pseudo]

Yep, that's my redline alright.

[drifter_for_life06]

the gauges you showed do have the redline at6900 just the image where its dark and lit up isnt a good one, you can see that its actually at 6900 mark not 7k

I've always been interested in the clusters with the tach dead center and a LCD readout for the speedometer. Probably hard to find working and not worth it but who knows what years and or trims recieved them?

thoes kind of gauges with the large void space (in this example that giant blue ring around the center) causes crazy amounts of eye fatigue. only get the gauges that light up the numbers. the kind that have back lighting like that are TERRIBLE

[pseudo]

Hmm... I'll keep that in mind when searching for a new set.

Thanks.

id have to agree

personally id just get some new needles and if you want color get a colored LED to put behind the stock gauges

[hannibal]

Oops, forget about the redline on S13...Look closely at the pic drifter posted. The kit is for an S13. They just put the fuel level and temp pieces on the wrong sides on the pic.

i liek those sorta

[i2ice4m3]

back in high school i drove around with blue spotlights on my gauges. itlooked mAd Tyte but yes it really does affect night driving.

[drifter_for_life06]

spotlights?!

[cyrus240sx]

personally i think the black guages look better than white... and you can just add different color bulbs to make it look different... heres mine..

[cyrus240sx]

... and heres with new bulbs at night

looks better in person.. camera just sucks at taking photos in dark

[drifter_for_life06]

i like the "ice blue" look myself

[brisknfade]

Im with Cyrus on the black guages. Just put in some diffrent bulbs and you can get some cool looking guages. Like mine...

[drifter_for_life06]

whoa wtf

id rather have the red at the "higher" revs and speed

[chmercer]

in case you guys dont know, black and white face gauges look exactly the same at night. the white just helps daytime visibility.

[WhtTrshPunk2]

s13 sr20 redlines at 7500rpm, i believe the s14 and 15 motors redline at 7200rom

You referring to HUD? Both my coupes have them (the totaled one and my new one). They work perfectly fine, and it's so awesome having your tech in the center (where it should be dammit) and the HUD becomes 2nd nature w/ your peripheral vision. I had a hard time adjusting to the analog speedo in the rental malibu As far as them breaking, i can't imagine the technology being so advanced that a FSM and a ohm-meter couldn't uncover the problem.

i was just saying because this guys post didnt really make much sene to me..

since you can change the color exactly the same way on white face gauges.. *shrug*
