    Epic thread dig, what ever happened to this Eric? I'm sure a lot of people would be keen for one.

    In terms of clean looks, Zoe's is the best option IMO, looks great. In saying that, ill probably end up going down this route.

    If ZOE NZX300 had a mold done of his I would be in like Flynn!!! I'd much prefer to have he gauges in the top slot, easier to glance at.

    What do you say ZOE NZX300 (don't make me get on my knees)? :D

    Yeah but they're just too expensive for me to justify, plus the gauges are small and not the gauges I want. I want exactly that, 3 gauges pointing up towards me from the bottom din. Wonder if 300 degree would consider making a rhd version.

    Yeah, coming from an NA point of view, they are the gauges you would want in terms of the readings but i understand that from a TT point of view, you would probably want others in there such as boost and temp.

    Im looking at running a group buy on them to see if a guy I found can get the price down as much as possible. If you already own gauges, then it wouldnt be worth getting but if you don't, buy the time you buy decent gauges, it would probably cost the same about...but again, if you have a TT and want boost pressure in there, then it is no good.

    Its not so much that, I want to run my boost gauge on the pillar anyway, but I'd rather my oil pressure be in psi instead of kpa. And unsure if I want to run a water temp gauge or just use the ecutalk for it.

    Another issue I'm having is finding a series of gauges that are in all the correct units I want. Either the pressure gauges are in kpa or bar, or the temperature gauges are in farenheit. :\

    Yeah, fair enough. All comes down to what you want.

    In a perfect world I would have telekinetic/voodoo powers and would be able to sense what temp and pressure everything is at :rofl: Until then, ill use my din gauges or a car pc setup.

    Already looked at them, they're like 62mm. Way too big.

    Hah yeah I know I'm being picky but I'll just keep looking until I find what I want. The zed's not going anywhere for a while so I'm not too fussed if what I want doesn't pop up straight away. Also looked at carpc's, but nothing really seems to be of oem quality and boot times aren't brilliant. I'd rather just have a good old fashioned single din head unit anyway.

    For low volume production runs try contacting: www.mocza.com. They do all sorts of unusual moulding & casting.

    I've got the greddy multi guage ready to go in, it's a great looking unit.

    Looks good eh! And simple.

    I really like the informeter touch units they do, OBD compatible AND plenty of inputs for aftermarket sensors. Very clever...

    Very simple, plus it saves me running more guages. Hopefully it'll be the greedy multi, the eboost2 and I'm thinking an aem wide band.

    Infometer touch units?
