[m4rk181983]

hi there my oem gauge is dead so i need new one.
cant really afford defi ones so which one of these two do u guys reccommend

or

also is it easy installing these gauges??

I don't know about the quality of these two brands. I would say the 'Depo' logo is a complete ripoff of the Defi logo lol...


In terms of installation it's not too tricky... just make sure you ask whether these gauges come with the boost sender that actually reads the boost pressure and delivers the information to your gauge. You need to tee in the vacuum from plenum area into your sender unit and then wire it through the firewall rubber grommet which is located behind the driver footwell (can get more access by removing the front driver's wheel arch liner) and it's all pretty straight forward to work out

yeh i know the depo one is a cheap copy but cant really afford the more expensive at the moment. just want a cheap replacement for now

I didn't want to spend much on gauges either so I think someone on here recommended me the Motor Stepper gauges.

I've had the boost peak one for a while, and just bought the oil and water temp gauges too..

 

[m4rk181983]

Do they come with all the stuff u need to fit them

 

[S15AK]

Boost gauge is fine, all you need is a vacuum feed and power. if you want temp stuff then you need sandwitch plates etc..

I would go for this, if you can still get them. They are very good.

Take a look at Stri gauges...

Has anyone seen a decent Tachometer gauge (at least 5" large with shift light) as I really want one of these now lol


Autometer Sport Comp is too expensive but totally Fast 'n' Furious which I love haha

Anyone recommend Marshall as they seem similar in style but for less dollar??

Actually I think I'm gonna order the Auto Meter Sport Comp cos I believe I was looking at the Pro Comp range beforehand which is much more expensive!! :wack:
