dhartig Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 For an updated traditional look you could use the SpeedHut dial kit. http://www.speedhut.com/custom_gauge_dial_description-auto-Datsun-auto_number-480.htm I would replace the clock with a dial boost gauge, but there would be an issue of continuity at nite. In the glove box goes digital AFM (I would not use a dial gauge) + any other gauges. Most of these will be used for datalogging and not daily driving. Close the door and you have a very traditional look. Open it and you can check readouts as long as you don't mind the head turn. I haven't searched this but I would think you could match the Datsun oil gauge to a better sending unit. Anyone with thoughts on this please jump in. This setup would probably not work for those who want to closely monitor other readings while driving fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharaohabq Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 ...They looked cool but I felt that there was too much head turning going on to be safe. That is the only negative I can see with the setup above. It looks sweet but I would be turning my head way too much, but that is me... Yeah I thought about that, but that's why you put things like the clock and A/F Ratio tward the passenger side. It's just an idea tho, and nothing I've seen anyone do so far.
