My only gripes/critiques right now:
1. The glow around the RPM seems a bit odd/dirty. The red should also be darker. But that seems more like a printer/material quality issue than a design issue.
2. That FR-S lettering feels out of place since theres nothing to light it up :(
- Maybe replace the "Sport S+" lettering with FR-S, BRZ, etc?
3. Same goes for that lil graphic above the RPM needle pivot point. I haven't seen that before, whats the purpose?
4. The font for the RPM looks a bit off to me as well, not sure why though. Again, might just be a printer/material quality issue.
No worries!
1. All the issue will be fixed once we get it produced on the machines.
2. Most of the ambient letter/logo are still up in the air. I have a few ideas in mind.
3.That little graphic above the RPM needle is straight from a LFA, where it serve as a transmission setting indicator, like on those BMW M cars with different shifting program/ferocity. Purely cosmetic here, could be change or replace with something else. Depends on general feedback.
4. Fonts are ripped straight from the LFA, looks a bit off here but it will be fixed once the file are sent in to be cleaned up.

I like your idea, but to make that happen would put this project way out of most people's league and take an unreasonable amount of time/expertise which frankly would make this whole thing unfeasible.

The aim is to produce a high quality straight replacement to mimic the high tech look and sophistication of the Lexus F Sport series within the physical constraint of the Scion/Toyota/Subaru gauge cluster.

I am sure with enough money and time, it could be made to work :D

Another teaser for now... post #86!

Yup. Ill take one now please.

DustinS 01-08-2016 01:02 PM
Really interested!

In my opinion (Lots of these being shared)

1: Transmission Graphic needs to be removed, as it serves no purpose on our cars
2: Get rid of Sport+ and move the FRS/BRZ in it's place (or just remove it and the car model all together. I don't see a need for either)
3: Dual MPH/KM/h gauge on left side.

Everything else looks really good

Really awesome concept. I would pick one up. Only thing I would request is to remove the sport s+, remove the FR-S, and the design under the needle where the rpm is.

can you make the rev needle flicker up to redline and down like the lexus does when you start it? Then i buy :thumbup:

Haha I'd love that too but its probably out of scope for this project.

I wonder if OFT could control that?

You just need to move the REV Limit LED under the needle and set the indicator to go off. I am going to tear back into it this afternoon to try and get working. I will PM you a link to how to do it when I finish.

Edit: This cluster design would look sick with the needles from the F-Type Jag

It has the cutout for the numbers to be seen through the Needle.

1. For the final version, I think I will leave them out. Don't worry!
2. I think I will move FRS/GT86/BRZ to that place as well. Maybe place another graphic where the existing FRS logo is. It will be something discreet and clean in fitting with OEM style.
3. I am planning to have mph fill the red inner ring.

I have some ideas for the needles. But I think that will be something each end user will have to do themselves... ;)

Dang, didn't think i'd ever want to change the cluster, but seeing this, i'm in if the price is right! :D

JW89225 01-11-2016 04:58 AM
Just a heads up for you guys, latest revision have ACUTAL water temperature gauge in Celsius ala GRMN 86 's dash. Will reveal the update when I get a chance.

I know some of you are asking for this :D Also, new template is far cleaner and FRS/86 logo moved to an illuminated position per popular request. Color scheme have been updated to follow the newest RC-F and GS-F


Lastly, most warning lights have been converted to appear much cleaner and understated.
