badjuju Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 bought mine from a friend, but both he and another of my buddies got them on ebay, i think this is one: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-MODUTEC-DIGITAL-LED-PANEL-METER-AMP-VOLTMETER_W0QQitemZ190042244467QQihZ009QQcategoryZ73158QQtcZphotoQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem then i just dremeled and epoxied it in there, sanded it, and painted it. it will read 0-5 volts or something, but i programmed my LC-1 (wideband) to put out 1 volt at 10:1 afr and 2 volts at 20:1 afr, and my friend had his voltmeter (the one i bought from him) set to read in tenths of a volt, so a 14.7 afr into my lc-1 comes out as 1.47 volts, which reads as 14.7 "decivolts" on my voltmeter.

cygnusx1 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Speaking of overpriced...my friend and I stopped by a used car dealer affiliated with BMW. They had a beautiful 2005 M3 in the showroom used with about 12K miles on it. It was white, 6sp manual, had black wheels, a custom trunklid, and stick-on carbon fiber layer (stickers) on the front lip. He wanted $65,000!! I questioned his logic. His argument was the black powder coated wheels, the custom trunk lid, and the carbon lip made it rare. Just because it's custom does not always make it worth big bucks. Same applies to that ZX. LOL.

boodlefoof Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 If this gives you any ideas, you can take a look at the custom center guage cluster I made out of sheetmetal for my '68 Camaro. http://www.geocities.com/boodlefoof/newinterior20.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
