Defi-link Advance ZD CSP Package

Have anyone bought the items and install it on their BRZ or FR-S? Are the sensors on the market compatible with our cars?

I don't see why they wouldn't work, but you are going to have to figure out how to mount the sensors. The WRX/STi always had an unused oil gallery plug which you could easily use for an aftermarket oil pressure or temperature probe, I don't know if the FA20 does or not. If the Defi sensor is 1/8 NPT it should work.

You can also replace the factory oil pressure sensor with an aftermarket one. The factory one usually doesn't buy you much because it comes on after it's already too late.

As for the other functions on the display I think it's just a matter of tapping the right wires.

They look so clean and I didn't want to install all the round gauges which I think it'll make the cabin look kinda messy to me.

Was thinking of putting it at the right hand corner next to the A-pillar.

Which gauges are you thinking about? I run Advance CRs in my ITR for Oil Temp and Pressure.

I just want the ZD. One item will do since it can display most of the info I need at the moment.
