Now i'm not following you
The silver meters only exist in the Warning range of gauges. These are the most expensive ones from Greddy.

They are all electronic with warning and peak hold function.

available type of gauges:

*temp meter (the one I have)
*fuel pressure
*oil pressure
*boost pressure
*exhaust temp
*air/fuel ratio

 

[Topper]

Ah ha, i thought you could only get the temp meter (one you have) in that design.

I stand corrected :thumbs:

 

[Nicely]

And there s a label from the swedish post office saying "tullfritt".

lol! Sounds like some sort of fruit fritter.

Ok.
No they have the whole gauge range in silver. :thumbs:
So I will replace the stock turbo gauge and get an oil pressure gauge later on too.
And maybe another temp meter for the water temp.

Cool. After looking deeper into guages I decided on the Greddy guages as well. It looked a close match in the pictures, but glad youve confirmed they do in reality. Just waiting for useless Nengun to ship my boost guage, so will post pics when its fitted.

I haven't campared to the cars cluster with the gauge side to side yet.
But from memory it looks bloody close.

Have you exceded your delivery estimate from nengun?
My order did with one day.
Then I made an order inquire and asked what was wrong. The next day I got an e-mail saying that the gauge had been shipped

You can try that if the delivery is overdue.

I had a look on Defi gauges mounted on a 350Z in a car-show here in Sweden.
They look very good. But I was after something that look more like stock items and the Greddy ones will be perfect I think.

Edit:
The Defis are supposed to be very good and they look good. But I think the car would be to much "christmas tree" inside with all the different colors lighting up at night.
yellow, red and whatever color the stereo lighting is.

With the Greddy, I get yellow, yellow and stereo, which hopefully will be exchanged for a good one with yellow lighting on later on.
That way I get a one color lighting inside the car which I think looks best.

hahaI can make them at my chippy

 

[Yakozan]

Ahh. Now I now what fritter is
Those banana fritters taste delicious.

How much would 2 be with freight to Sweden sushiming?

 

[Yakozan]

test fitted the gauge tonight.
It was like the gauge was especially made for the S15.
The color is a very very close match.
It fitted right in the vent assembly. No modding needed except for cutting the back on the assebly for the electric connection.

And as usual there are some crappy pics from the camera phone

 

[kieran]

looking good paul, that is a very close match :thumbs:

 

[Meddy]

Me likey. :thumbs:

 

[elizium]

is that hybird kit?
the kit looks like hybird intercooler kit especially piping, quite alot of ppl use them here

I have teh hybrid kit... it's well made and 'allegedly' light

----

As for Yakozan's car - I'll have to kill you for having the Integral's. I had them on my Z and wanted some for my S15, but they've been discontinued and I can't find them anywhere even offering to pay in blood My absolute favourite wheels!

Well thank you. They came with the car
To bad they are 17". 18" and 1" wider would be perfect
I've heard rumors that SSR went bankrupt a while back Too bad. They made some nice rims

 

[Topper]

Guage looks sweet mate, i hear what you say about all the different coloured lights, can you not change the bulb in the guages to make them match?? - of course you wont need to do this as your do match

Small update.

Got a sponsor now which is specialized in Garrett Turbos.
But they are also resellers of Motul oils and some other stuff.
I'll get parts and oils at reduced prices in exchange for a sticker on the car

Here is the company webpage (In Swedish)
www.airtune.se

This is my order which I will get from Airtune as soon as I've sold my turbo timer.

3" downpipe to fit a S14 (also fits the S15)
Motul 300V competition 15W50 engine oil
Motul RBF 600 factory line brake oil
Motul gear 300 75W90 transmission oil

I'm also looking into buying N-brake NA-P brake pads

I've been offered to buy a used minolta Dimage Z3 digicam cheap from a guy. So when I can afford it you'll get decent pics of the car instead of the "ant-farm war" pics I've supplied so far

 

[Topper]

A sponsor :indiff: thats nuts, anyone want to offer me cheap parts for a sticker on my car

Good job though mate, can you get us cheap deals if we promote them across the world??? :wave:

 

[Nicely]

I think Bren (Apex) must have everyone well trained. Everyone spends a shedload with him AND put his stickers on for free...

 

[Topper]

Yeh i guess your right.

Just noticed the chart for the brake pads... pad life isnt very long, but i guess if you get your sponser to supply them then its all good. :thumbs:
