Jazzer Neutral Newbie October 24, 2003 Share October 24, 2003 (edited) all cars can be fix with gauges...just that stuffs like boost gauges are pointless for NA cars. Some brands you might like to consider are Defi, Blitz, Pivot, HKS, Swoosh etc. As for fixing up the gauges, do consider as pillar mouting gauges MIGHT result in drilling of holes which some ppl do not like. Other alternative is to get the 'cup' holder for the gauges where it holds the gauges neatly, around yr dashboard.

Mazdaxtreme Neutral Newbie October 24, 2003 Share October 24, 2003 You can fix up any type of gauge available, except a boost gauge which will be quite redundant 'cos NA dun have any boost to gauge, rite? The types of gauges you can install include volt, oil pressure, oil temp, water pressure, water temp, exhaust temp, vacuum and rpm. The Defi BF range can be fitted on BOTH NA and FI cars without problem.. so you can still go for that BF cool look with an NA car The BF set will set you back about $300+ per gauge though.. so be prepared Other brands might be cheaper, with autometer being one of the cheapest around (unless you wanna consider those brandless pieces, or brands no one's heard before). Hope it helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VenomMX 4th Gear January 19, 2012 Share January 19, 2012 hi bros, is there any much diff installing replica gauges and genuine ones example, boost meter? would the reading be way off? The issue with the replica ones is its durability.. Original ones, like Defi, can last for years, and its resale value is also high.. Take a look at the second hand Defi gauges for sale.. Can cost up to 1.4k for a full set of 6 gauges.. Replica ones are cheap, but wont last long.. Maybe less than a year? Also, you cant sell second hand replicas for much.. Reading wise, it is true that the replica ones are not as accurate as the original ones.. But not way off la.. Hope this helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuan 6th Gear January 19, 2012 Share January 19, 2012 hi bros, is there any much diff installing replica gauges and genuine ones example, boost meter? would the reading be way off? Invest a bit more. Go for genuine ones like Defi etc. I would not go for replica version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
