I have a HKS Old school boost gauge rated in psi, with the black backing and amber lightup, if anyone has Any of the other function gauges let me know, i'll buy them

 

I like the amber gauges and I think they might be coming back is style. The new G35 has factory amber gauges also, so hopefully we will be able to start finding more aftermarket gauges in amber.

 

what are you smoking? defi has amber gauges readily available if your not a cheapass like most of the community...

^OMG those are pretty sweet.

 

Can a universal sensor be used for the old school hks gauges? I really wanna get that temp gauge working. BTW the hks boost gauge I have is in bar and electric.

 

if by pretty sweet you mean "going to cost ******* both arms AND legs" then yes... they are pretty sweet.

 

idunno about you guys but gauge clutter is a major issue with me

these don't match the stock cluster but they're DUAL Digital gauges:

If/when I get gauges, this is what I'm going with
they have A LOT of good features that other JDM gauges have as well
peak warning, peak hold, you can even use them to signal other parts of your car
(i.e. use water temp to turn on electric fan once it hits a certain temp #)

 

ummm, I need some of those old school amber ones, You can't get any better than the stock gauge colors, my opinion of course. Anyone every put FD dash and door panels in their FC?

 

I really dislike digital gauges with a passion.

 

Alot of the aftermarket gauges are "Amber Red" and our factoy gauges more of a Amber Orange (they are also amber orange in the G35). I guess amber red is pretty close but it would be nice to see more of a amber orange.

 

actually it depends what cluster you have, i know that there are 2 different shades of amber on our FC clusters, theres a light amber orage one, and ive also seen a darker amber red one. not too sure on the specific years they come on though.

 

the amber/redish hks gauges ,go good with the amber 80's stock gauges!

 

S4 clusters (86-88) are a darker orange/red color.
S5 clusters (89-91) have a some light orange/yellow color.

 

Its not just an 80's thing some new cars have amber gauges.

 

true style:

 

What the hell is all that ****? That thing has more gauges than an air craft

 

it's probably a civic and none of the gauges are hooked up, haha. J/k but that does look just a tad over done

 

function over fashion

 

Actually I do have digital readings through my Blitz TT (boost gauge w/ peak/hold functions and also lap times) to compare with my electric hks guage and also my SAFC2
