What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

I just made a gauge panel to replace the door on my cubby. I had it wrapped in leather. I should have it installed on the cubby tomorrow.

Looks good.

I got my new 150 psi oil pressure gauge from SpeedHut today.

Got it installed. The interior put back together, and I'm cleaning it now.

Thanks. It's a fun little project. A lot more fun than it's going to be running all the sensor cables.
Post up some pics of your new gauge.

I'm feeling stupid. I searched in Speedhut for "oil gauge" and went through five pages of results and all the ones in psi went to 100. I recall you said to be certain to get the 150psi. Now some of them are marked as 14 bar which is equivalent to 200psi. Was it one of those you specc'ed?

I'm considering putting some money together with bonus next spring to "enhance the ride" and the oil gauge is on my list. (also 34 row and stretch quaife diff)

I hope this finds you well

Order this gauge. In the gauge Notes. Write "Instead of PRESS PSI. I want it to read OIL PSI". It will cost you an extra $10.00. It will take them a month or so.

Also, see if you can get a wiring harness that is about 3 ft longer. I had to add 3 ft to mine.

I re-did my gauge panel and just got it back from being wrapped. It's just sitting in the cubby opening right now. I'll have the gauges in it and have it bolted down tomorrow. I went ahead and had them add the vertical stitching just like what's on the cubby door.

Rusty · 11-21-2017, 04:54 AM

What is your flat panel made of?

redondoaveb · 11-21-2017, 11:30 AM

I used 1/4" craft plywood. You could use 1/8" as it's a little easier to work with. Here's my finished product.

Rusty · 11-21-2017, 11:34 AM

Looks good. As you know. I been looking for a cubby for a project. Have a couple offer, but their all have the white stitching. I'm looking for the red Nismo stitching.
