Komeuppance Posted December 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 http://home.comcast.net/~Driftability/images/Komeuppance/GaugesSilver.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~Driftability/images/Komeuppance/GaugesRed.jpg http://home.comcast.net/~Driftability/images/Komeuppance/GaugesOrange.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPz6MHCzNVwIn action Local guy was selling these silver gauge faces that he had Importcarparts.com make... they're not overlays. I HAAAAAD to have them, as they were pretty much what I was looking for at half the cost. Original plan was to go white numbers/lettering, and I had 24 white LED's in... but... it just didn't do it for me, since there was a slight blue tint. Then I saw Silvia S15 gauges with thier stock silver face/orange backlight... and it was a no brainer... orange = 80's Mitsubishi styling. The needles are lit up by some EXTREMELY tiny SMT LED's... in RGB. Meaning, they'll light up to Red Green or Blue + tons of other color combos. I haven't finished the wiring for the green or blue or made a controller for different colors, so for now, they're red. When I get my "shift light" I can have the tach needle change color at my preset shift point... a dream/idea I've had for 7+ years now. I ordered these on ebay direct from the manufacturer in China, right after that my paypal was stolen... coincidence... I think not. These weren't 100% finished, but there was a meet and I wanted these in. There's 30 orange LED's and 8 RGB's (2 for the big needles). MANY hours of work into this, as I had to redo all the backlighting from white to orange. I had the white odometer number set in, but that speedo was my broken one(I forgot I did my testing on a broken set)... so I had to swap in a different speedo for the meet. The boost gauge is a 60mm Prosport electronic gauge (I also have matching water temp, oil pressure, and fuel pressure from them). Our team has been running prosports since prosport first started offering gauges about 3 years ago... one of the few companies out there that know what customer service is about. Would I do it again... ha... maaaaaaaaaaybe... the needles were hardest part because of the tiny LED's, the solder pads are less than 1mm thick and very fragile.http://home.comcast.net/~Driftability/images/Komeuppance/NeedleLED.jpgBroken solder pad... busted about 7 of these. It makes the car feel like a much newer machine since the old gauges had old school backlighting by today's standards, and orange from the needles have faded away... plus the Prosport pwns. EDIT:http://home.comcast.net/~DriftAbility/images/Komeuppance/InteriorOff.jpgGauges off, flash lights em up though. http://home.comcast.net/~DriftAbility/images/Komeuppance/InteriorWhite.jpgPark lights (needles on, gauges white) http://home.comcast.net/~DriftAbility/images/Komeuppance/InteriorOrange.jpgHeadlights on, all orange backlighting. I still need to replace my AC controller bulbs, and plug my stereo back in. -Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komeuppance Posted March 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 (edited) Ha... so I finally got around to rolling the front fenders so I could put the 8's on the front!!

D_Venable Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 time for flatty lower control arms, and rear 9's on all corners, hehe OH, and what's holding you back from getting the Illumina's on the front?

Komeuppance Posted March 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 RUBS!? .. Holy Jeebus. One good bump is gonna cut a tire! Haha, I rolled the fenders to reduce the chances of cutting a tire. Basically folded the fender lip over, and it's nice and smooth!! I need more camber. I can also pull the fenders out a bit more with the eastwood roller. How much travel do you have on that thing? I don't think my cosmos sleeves will go that low..... If I didn't have the MK1 camber plates on, I'd have just over 2" more travel. Do your cosmos have the helper spring?? The MK1's don't, maybe that's why they'll go lower. time for flatty lower control arms, and rear 9's on all corners, hehe OH, and what's holding you back from getting the Illumina's on the front? Waiting for me to finish mine? hehe looking good, a 215/50 might look right at home on the front [ Yeah, I gotta buy some rear tires soon... maybe I'll try the 215's, and swap front to rear. What's taking me so long?? I like to ride on my blown struts!! It's nostalgic. LOL... jk, been rebuilding my shop and added a 220v outlet for my welder in... so very very soon. -Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOHO Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 They do have the helper spring...I was going to try taking it out....but i'm not sure....I've got the camber plates to install yet also...But would like it close to what you've got.....just looks....right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strang3majik Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 can you even turn the front wheels without pushing the fender out? Looks sweet, but, holy crap! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
