There was a guy in Sydney on eBay selling a Momo wheel off a jap import MX5 (and also a 1.8 NA turbo set-up-which sold for a song).
In the background of the Momo wheel ad I saw these gauges.
So I asked him if he wanted to sell them. At that time I didn't know they were AWD.
I asked Ryan (Green Comet or Mr Zero Offset) what he would pay for them.
So with that figure in mind an offer was made, accepted, and the parcel arrived today.
It's all good. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
To tell the truth, I have NFI idea what they are worth :?:

EDIT:
It's kilometers. And the 200 max reading is a bummer but damn! it looks good.

They were a private sale, I just emailed the guy.
This was an eBay bargain though. X-Force 2.5" hiflo cat. $113.50 delivered.

Hopefully this will form the basis of a twin system.
