the first questions you need to ask yourself -
why are you getting them?
what gauges will you put in them?

if you are NA, you dont need them.

Quit hating...everybody knows that with the right gauge pods, you can shave at least a second off your 1/4 mile.

ProPod was the maker of the CE gauge pods.

They have a website.

Make sure that you put in 2 boost gauges in case one is wrong. JK. I think pilar pods are a little ricy though.

enlighten us all as to why you think so. you apparently dont know that the stock water temp gauge has 3 setting, off, middle and overheating. and i guess knowing your oil pressure is kinda stupid too?> lets trust that dummy light. i love ignorant comments like this.

You guys are really funny on here, I come and ask a question about where I can get a car part for my car, and I get these type of responses....ohh yeah, this is the same forum that said a vq30det couldn't fit into a 4th gen, and that a 300z turbo motor couldn't fit into a second gen, and that a vq30de couldn't fit into a 3rd gen when those 3 people are in my crew, and have all did those swaps into their cars....I forgot I have to expect stupid comments from people on here sometimes....whatever.....

Starchild2k2se, look they gave you the link where to find it, whats the gripe?
your main question was answered, so what if someone doesnt like the idea, to each his own. anytime you do something new, people are GOING to haze you. Thats in any part of life.

i simply asked you what gauges you planned on putting in there...you blew it all out of proportion

I concur. There are several things I can think of that would be beneficial to N/A applications. A/F, anyone? Most people have the impression that these are ricey, but that's because there actually ARE some people that use them for absolutely nothing. They can be very beneficial, though so sometimes people need to just bite their tongue...

why would you need to know and monitor those numbers?
would you drive your car differently based on those numbers?
if you did decide to get those gauges, would they need to be displayed on the A pillar so everyone else can see that you have gauges?

My car will be custom done, and yes it will be boosted. SO I guess I do need the gauges now.

They don't have to be displayed so everyone can see it, but saves me time of doing a custom job and mounting them elsewhere that's why I will use the pillar.

i made the word "will" red.
you WILL be boosted...meaning, when you are boosted, get the gauges.
im really just joking around with you.
my car is modded for auto-x. you might be faster in a straight line...im faster around curves
boosting does NOTHING for auto-x and would still put me in a class that i have no chance in.

JIC magic coilovers, stillen front and rear strut bars, stillen rear sway bar, and a lower tie bar that will probably have to come off when I do the custom turbo setup. Falken tires.....I don't know what "body roll" feels like, lol.

Come up to ny sooner, lolol.
