Vent Gauge

My project this evening was installing my new gauge setup. So far I'm very pleased. It gives me the gauges I want while managing not to give too much of a boy racer appearance.

I really like the gauge color change to mimic the rest of the dash when you turn the headlights on.

Depo 4 in 1 Gauge:
-Oil Pressure
-Battery Voltage
-Oil Temp
-Water Temp (still waiting on parts to install the sensor)

Forgive the quality, the lighting was horrible.

Welcome!

What sort of mods are you thinking of doing?

It's a long shot but does anyone that's heading down to Proving Grounds have an ecutek cable and license? I need to make some adjustments that might allow me to race.

Our licenses are keyed to the ECU so that wouldn't do you any good. If you have your own license I'd be happy to lend you my cable, but I'm probably not going to proving grounds unless my health decides to take a turn for the better between now and then.

I hope everyone is okay after a crazy night last night. We're sitting without power still, tons of trees down in the neighborhood, but no real damage for us.

Same here, no power until Monday says Xcel Energy for about half of the city of Savage.

Thank goodness I have a gas water heater and a skylight in my bathroom. Otherwise it'd be a cold and dark shower!

I'm in total agreement, nice that if nothing else works at least I can take a hot shower.

Power is back on here but still out in a lot of parts of south minneapolis. I spent the morning fiddling with my neighbors generator so we could run as many people's refrigerators as possible off it.

Nice to see how the neighborhood comes together when things like this happen.

I left my BRZ parking at Walmart and the strong wind storm pushed a f**king cart on my passenger side door causing a huge ass dent, FML!

By the way, I beat most of the stock EVO and STI today on Proving Grounds AutoX. But was put in the modified STX class whilst running with Prius Tires so needless to say I got my ass handed to me by the more modified cars. But everyone had a lot of fun and it was great meeting a lot of new people. Unfortunately I didnt get to see any familiar faces(in the forums) BUT there was a lot of BRZ/FRS around now which is a very good thing. Hoping we can all get a get together and head out to the next event for September.

Sorry about your car man! I kept seeing you driving back and forth but I didn't get a chance to say hi. I ended up getting there and left a few hours afterwards.

Like you, I saw quite a few twins and a brz who was on the road course. He was much faster than I anticipated. It looked like he had BFG rivals and I'm pretty sure brake pads.
