3 gauges on dashboard
 
what i dont understand is the last gauge from the left on the dashboard, the first two are useful, oil temp, battery voltage but its the last one i wish nissan would change which is the clock, now i can understand those that dont have nav it might be of some use, but those who have nav we already have the time displayed on the nav screen, i just wish there were something more useful there like tire pressure or something of that sorts, i guess that people without nav rather have tire pressure gauge instead of the time gauge loool, just a though thats been going through my head, what do u guys think, or do u think its just fine the way it is, would love to hear some opinions from the z community.

I think the clock is useful. To be honest I would rather change the battery voltage one with an oil pressure.

zuperman 370 05-19-2011 02:36 AM

battery voltage one is also useful, clock is useful as well but im just sayin that tire pressure or as u mentioned oil pressure gauge will be more useful

yeah same here i hardly see the battery meter and it doesnt change that much as well lol

zuperman 370 05-19-2011 03:06 AM

maybe so but u never know when it might come in handy lool

the clock is pretty lame

I love the clock - it reminds me of my previous 240, 260 and 280z's. It is very retro and represents the heritage of the Z (maybe I am getting old)

I like the clock personally.

I miss tire pressure and digital speed. To me it was easier to check speed from the gauges than the dash.

I also miss the fact that I could check each tire's pressure before getting out of the neighborhood

i dont care about the gauges, i want heads up display....

Great post, ragtop_rob. I was about to mention that it's sort of a throw-back to the classic Z's. In fact, I think it would be really cool to have an orange LCD display so you could switch between digital and analog clock faces.

I would rather have an A/F guage or Analog clock in that pod. More importantly, I wish we had an analog fuel guage....or a full color lcd in place of that silver & orange eyesore on the dash cluster.

Is that an actual running clock in a 240??? Amazing.

I think that the clock should be incorporated in the "computer" display and that there should be an oil pressure gauge there instead.

I wish they kept the multifunctional 1 like my 350Z had. I also miss not having an oil pressure gauge. It would always let me know when i was down a quart.
