Beautiful work thus far....
Any ballpark pricing out there yet for the full set up and gauges? I SOOO want this but not sure I could handle losing my car again for a few months. Have to think its going to be a blast to drive if you can stay out of jail that is ![]()

![]() I keep saying I'm going to start a new thread, but I'll give everyone a quick update in this one: We've installed the Defi Link Meter, and the gauges should have power very shortly! Once they're all lit up, I'll grab some more photos for everyone to check out!

Do you plan to do a write up on the parts list and the difficulty installing the DEFI gauges? I have a set of DEFI gauges I wish to install in the 370Z and by your pictures thats EXACTLY the way I want it to look. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

With that being said, this is the only place I would install gauges in a 370Z. I never really liked A-Pillar gauges, or gauges mounted on the steering column, or any place like that. I mean, it already comes from the factory with a gauge pod, so why not use what Nissan already provided? ![]()

![]() This is why I'm looking for insights and tips to make my project easier. Just from the pictures I believe I can see what you accomplished and why it was done that way. It's not going a project that is completed in a day. I'm looking forward to the write-up as I was waiting to begin final research and engineering until I could see how you accomplished it.

Boost is in Bar and Oil Temp is in Celsius?

Yes, most of the JDM temp gauges measure temperature in Celsius, not Fahrenheit like most of us are used too. And most Japanese boost gauges read boost in bar/kPa, but if you know the conversions, you'll be able to read it just fine. Essentially, the table goes like this:
1 bar = 14.5 psi 1 psi = 0.06895 bar 1 psi = 6.89KPa
