i will have to get some pictures, i used the autometer gauge pod cups, i like them becuase they give you the ability to put the gauges whereever you want to, which is nice, plus i didnt want to put my gauges where it was really obvious to others who may look into my car.

Boost oil pressure and water temp, i believe these should be most important for a DD. The temp for the oil, I don't think is as necessary if you don't plan on tracking the car.

I'm sorry, I misread your initial post to think you had used these:



But now I understand that you don't have your gauges where the radio was, but in different places using the standalone cups. I wasn't sure if the rings in the pic above would work with the faceplate/gauges I'm using. Maybe that's my next purchase?

My setup is exactly like this.

3 52mm gauge holes ( Where the radio is suppost to fit in the b13!)

Then the heat and AC

Then my radio

Then cupholder and ashtray

Then the coin tray.

I'm just looking to find the best 3 gauges to use.

Are oil temp, oil pressure and water temp the most ideal for a Naturally aspirated b13? I have plans to turbo, but not for a year or so.

Thanks a lot!

I don't think I need boost because I won't be turboing for a while.
I doubt I'll be auto xing or tracking this car.

This is my first car and I'm basically just trying to spice it up and prepare for a turbo. But I'm a nissan enthusiast and have helped my father rebuild his 240sx. So I'm not really new to the car game, just b13's.

i have a wideband in a custom carbon fiber panel like jimmys new car and i think i wanna do oil pressure next to it since i have a ve. I'm paranoid about the oil pressure.
