stony Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I know this should go in a different forum, but I’m kind of partial to the rb so I will post it here. Well I’m not much of a fabricator yet but I kind of like my new dash panel. It has what I feel are my must have gages to monitor engine performance. The 2 boxes on the end are the HKS knock monitor/wideband monitor and the HKS EVC. Now that the hard part is done all I have to do is wire them up. I'm going TDY to miramar for 3 weeks so nothing will be done till i get back. Should be ready for some dyno time shortly after i get back. before after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TeamNissan Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Its not hard for you to see all those gauges accurately laid out like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted January 19, 2008 Author Share Posted January 19, 2008 No not really. The white ones are memory gages and have warning settings in them I can set. I'm also going to wire in some LED lights that will warn of stuff getting out of hand. Booste will be limited with the computer so even if the wqastegate fails open it wont overboost. The booste gage is there just so i can see what my peak booste was on the run. Same thing with water temp oil temp and EGT. Besides who is really going to be looking at the gages when your going 150MPH :> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TeamNissan Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Haha ya thats why I asked lol, I know you put them to hard use. I thought it would be hard to glance at them on a angle like that. Its looks damn fine to me though GJ. Ever thing of cutting metal wedges to angle them? Or it really doesn't matter?

xxjoeyxxeb Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 That is just like what I've been planning for my Z. Simple dash with a small angle facing up a little. But it would be on a street car so the gauges would be set up in front of the driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_hunt Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Looks alot like mine, seems z's are a natural candidate for such a dash don't it. Just remember to paint it all flat black. Kind of looks like gloss black right now in the pic's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evan Purple240zt Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Stony ,I have a greddy a/f gauge like that. How does it work? I have no manual and am not sure. There are some dials and buttons on the datalink box too. Looks good! Thanks - Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
