My new gauges!

[Ajay]

Hello everyone!

just thought i would show you one of my X-mas Pressies!!

3 guages (EL blue background to match the dash) i chose these ones because as most of you know i am addicted to chrome and these came with bling rings!..

i also got the DIN mount for the gauges.. and i think it looks quite nice in there the gauges are angled toward me

while i had the dash apart i mounted the head unit flush with the dash (instead of my early dodgy atempt) and re-sprayed the surround black (it was originally silver)

come up quite nice.. unfortunatly the gauges arent wired yet.. im not mechanically minded.. so Daniel at mania will be doing this for me

hope you like

Cheers
Ajay

where did the DIN gauge mount come from?

where did the DIN gauge mount come from?

It looks similar to one I bought via Auto Barn. Cost me around $30 I think.

whats the gauge on the left show?

[AJ]

whats the gauge on the left show?

i'd say oil or water temp............probably water temp.........if you look on the bottom right of that gauge it shows a red Farenheit symbol (for the inner red writing on the gauge).......middle one is vacuum & right one is oil pressure

isn't the right one a volt one

just wondering

how come i've seen people put oil pressure in there mx5 even tho they got one in front of them already

actually, yeah you could be right about that r/hand gauge

with the oil pressure thing............i think the NA6/8's had a proper oil press gauge, but the yanks were terrified of them because they moved up & down with the revs of the car .......so Mazda shut 'em up by putting an idiot gauge in the NB's that went halfway up the gauge & stayed there, no matter what rpm the engine was at.........the yanks were mighty relieved to have a "proper" gauge that stayed in the one spot, which meant their oil pressure did too .......everyone else was pissed off about it but

PS: NC's have a gauge that moves up & down with the engine RPM, thank christ.........they musta trained the yanks

[TieNN89]

my one stays at one place as well

so in other words its very slow at updating or its fake


do the nb have a low engine oil light or is the gauge there to replace it
