Absolutely great looking work, very impressive.

I wanted a total stealth approach so absolutely no aftermarket gauges could be visable in my car.





Here's the full thread: https://g35driver.com/forums/forced-induction/162015-carputer-installed-logging-guages.html

I don't have quite the information, but enough to know if there is something wrong with the car.

Thanks. It's not bad, but it does lack flexibility. I had intentions of building an input device for other gauges, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen.

I like the look of gauges and found a good deal so I got all the ones I wanted. I have wideband A/F, Boost, EGT, Oil press, Oil temp and Fuel press. They are all the Autometer Nexus 52mm which have ~7 colors and match the oem amber dash perfectly plus they have data log to SD card via the remote.
gonna be hard to watch the road and all those gauges at the same time!

Oh sorry I thought it was still black. Do you have any other pics?

Nice work tim. I like the look fo the 3 gauge pod more than the 5 gauge pod. Your 3 gauge pod allows for more space to make everyhting look more fluid.

Not a big fan of A pillar guages. IMO they look kinda ricy.

The dash gauges on the other hand, that looks really nice. Its kind of like a subaru.

To each their own.

I am going to re-do the pillar one down the line to make it stand out less with the same mold as the dash ones.

Yeah I always liked the STi ones and G352NV's so I went the same route. It looks awesome in person. It was not too hard to do. Someone should start making these for people. In fact I would even do it when I have some spare time.

Yes you can still see the Navi screen just fine.

You'd make a killer.


Are Navis easily swapped into cars?
