Default s2ooo gauge systems

hi s2000 owners,

im looking at putting gauges in my ap1.... but rather than gauges, does anyone know if you can get like an apexi computer (or whateva model i dont know much about them) that u wire up but on one screen it tells you oil pressure, oil temp, water temp and anything else.....????

i have no idea what they r called or where to look.



also im in aus and was wondering if anyone know what is a good gauge pod for an A piller....?????

sos colour is way out..... does anyone have a 3 gauge pod?? or just 2?


please help and i dont want my baby to overheat when im thrashin her.... need gauges before oil cooler!!

all feedback would be appreciated!!

cheers

Phil

A) What you're looking for, or similar to, is the Greddy informeter touch: http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/Merchant...R&Store_Code=EM

I'm sure there's other companies/units out there, I'll let you do the leg work.

B) The only guages my friend and I recommend are Defi, everything else seems like a step down from their guages and setups.

Can get AEM EMS and get a couple serial gauges for an a pillar pod. Benefit of the AEM EMS is you can also tune the car with it not just monitor the car. The autometer is pretty good. Much better color match than the SOS unit.

Ah didn't think of that. Not sure which are made for rhd.

I'm not sure if I have any. Have some with the gauges lit up but can't see the fitment or anything very well I don't think.

There is a few companies that do make them. As I am also RHD i have been on the search. they are incredably hard to find tho. If I remember correctly i think Scienceofspeed has them. . .

You can do what I did; buy an AIM MXL dash.



This is a higher model:



You can monitor whatever you want off the AEM EMS (I don't know if you said you had one or now. To me, if your going to spend $800 for 3 Defi gauges, I'd spend the extra $200-$300 for a complete dash which you can put into another car if you want to. The model I have normally goes for $1200 w/o sensors, but there are plenty of people that sell them used for $800-$1000
