New gauge Sgear Crenate II
 
I was looking to buy a gauge that had more than just 1 read out. I was hoping to keep the interior of my car from looking like a fighter cockpit. While blindly browsing through google shopping i found the Sgear Crenate II stepping motor gauge. It shows Oil pressure, Oil temp, water temp and volt all in 1. They also have a boost, EGT, Intake temp gauge. I found there web site but the company is located in Taiwan, i couldn't find any vendor in the US.

After about 10 emails and talking the sales agent into selling me just 1 (they wanted me to by 5 minimum) and me being skeptical i was going to get taken for a ride and be out money and still not have a gauge. The gauge was 238$ ready to install and took about a week to get to my house from Taiwan.

Went with the basic Oil pedistal for press and temp

Hooked up and ready to go. The remote allows you to show peaks, set alarms, change the color (Red, Green, White) You can also change it from C* to F*

I just got it wired up last night and when i started my car it said water was 60F and oil was 62F. The temp gauge in my garauge said it was 60F outside so :icon_tup:

I'll have to get some hot water out and test the 2 sending units later. I'm not sure how i'd test the oil press it seemed to look farily close to my stock gauge but the stock FD oil pressure gauge is about as good as the temp gauge :lol:

Wow! Those are very nice!!

Not too shabby! Wish the gauge didn't read all the way up to 3 bar, that's a waste of space on an FD :).

What FD don't make it to 43psi? :lol: Yeah kind of excessive but i guess if you are making something for multiple cars you'd better hit into the diesel range as well.

I could just see you giving a girl a ride and she's watching that gauge "You don't even make it half way up" :( :lol:
