they have some beautiful analog too.

prices are 65 for most gauges, senders are extra. you get a life time warranty. these are more expensive than the cyberdyne gauges, but you get better quality and I like how it says "water temp" or "intake temp" or "boost PSI" on these.

those look real cool but i kinda like the normal kind better. the regular gages will let you know when you are in a Red zone. what kinda warning features are on those gages?

You guessed wrong, lol. I bought these cause I like the way they look. I dont care for the spa gauges. Also, I think the spa gauges read in Celsius, Im American, thank you and prefer Farienheight. with these, all you see is the LED read out, the spa gauges are not as elegant, IMHO. Not saying they are not great gauges, but I Like the basic look of these.

The cyberdyne gauge are similar to these, but alot cheaper. I bought these because I thought the quality was better.

BTW, I have no doubt the spa gauges are better gauges, just not my style.

Looks excellent. I personally found mine easier to read, when they are rotated towards me, but then again, yours are a digital display. Either way, they look great, and I like how they are blacked out when off.

Has anyone used Dakotadigital Gauges? I think they look really sleek and nice, only prob is that they are blue, but I like them.

Zero, It looks like the camera is trying to autofocus on the background reflection on the gauges. Playing with an autofocus macro next time might help... maybe when the forum is faster.

Oh, they look awesome, BTW.

"you guessed wrong,lol"
Ok what was funny, did i miss something.
Anyway you don't know about SPA guages obviously. You program their guages so they will read anyway you program them to, metric or "American" Your going to tell me that those cheap *** Summit racing guages are more elegant than SPA guages? Ok....http://www.spa-uk.co.uk/design/dualgauges.htm
I don't care if you want low quality guages in your car or not. Your the one who drives it but lets not pretend that your guages are better than the ones that SPA offers.

BTW Why were you crying about me offering you a dipstick for $20
Whooaaa $20 dont break the ******* bank!!

wow, thats teh first time i've seen SPA guages before and they are awesome looking!! i really love how they display 2 different things in one guage. that can really save a ton of space when you need lots of guages. i know what kinda guages i'm getting when i get the FD.

Zero its good to see that whatever forum you post on, you make an idiot of yourself! You really should READ up on products before saying that they dont do something!

I am not going to comment on YOUR choice of gauges. Its a personal thing, they look good.

Here is a quick pic of my twin speaker pod with SPA's in. I will take some more tonight, once it gets darker.



On the left is oil pres. (top) oil temp (bottom), and on the right I have inlet temp (top) and what will be EGT once I drill in to the exhaust housing at the bottom.

who the hell are you ? I dont appreciate being flamed. I dont like the spa gauges. I said earlier that I have no doubt that the spa gauges are the best gauges you can buy. I dont like how they look. its that simple.

Now go jump back in your pond please.

My gauges are not summit gauges. Secondly, I like the looks of these gauges better, why is that so hard to believe?

If they were both the same price I would not get the spa gauges.



I don't care if you want low quality guages in your car or not. Your the one who drives it but lets not pretend that your guages are better than the ones that SPA offers.


I said before that I have no doubt the spa gauges are great quality. I dont like how they look. and when did I say mine were better? You are such a tool.


BTW Why were you crying about me offering you a dipstick for $20
Whooaaa $20 dont break the ******* bank!!

because I can get one from the dealer for $17.00.

rotorbrain was nice enough to mail me one for free.
