build yourself a pod where the clock - info display is and mount them there? easy to keep an eye on as well

I would maybe put the oil temperature down where the ash try is, maybe use the ashtray as a base, mount the gauge in there and have the other two up top where I said previously

The only thing you will miss out on is which track number of westlife's greatest hits is playing, although from what i hear you know them off by heart anyhow

Oh and Lol at naming your thread after your username then changing your username!

The thread is being changed namewise lol! I thought of it straight after haha!

Still deciding on what to do dash wise, but the top will eventually be flocked!

Why would you put oil temp down away from site? I think I'd prefer all together, just problem being there are a lot to go in one place lol!

Put them in the air vent grids two in the centre and other one in drivers side vent cut circular holes sink them in, changes back easily, visable, moveable slightly for sight perfect placement.

I don't know to be honest mate, tried calling Paul today but seems they've shut up early for holiday by a couple of days! Next time I'll speak to him is the 9th!

Whats stopping you? You only live once, take out a small loan or something

As long as I get 240 I'm happy TBH! But any more wil be awesome!

 

[Russ_16v]

Thats cool fella, just interested in if any testing needs doing

mine feels plenty strong enough to take F/IA, though i dont have the money to do so lol

 

[DannyR]

That's why I'm confident with mine, it pulls average of 163 bhp and 149 lbs/ft on a rolling road! The engine is the only thing strong on the car!

 

[Russ_16v]

ha lol, im quite impressed with mine, 141 @ the wheels and 172. @ fly on average, and still pulls like a train, and the interior still hasnt starting rattling, im worried......

 

[DannyR]

That is good, is it standard?

Just had an estitmated quote from Adrian Flux with supercharger, 250bhp, stripped, buckets, coilovers, exhaust and its £775! Cheaper than anywhere!

im with a company in romford called sky insurance. my willy, which is turbod, same power, coilovers, brakes, alloys, exhaust, charge cooler etc, was 400. i know its an older car, but still may be worth a go.

I was trying to prioritise, even though all three are very important i decided pressure was better than temperature

2 in a pod on top of dash and 1 in an air vent.....meaning you still have 3 air vents

 

[DannyR]

Insurance is a little high as only 21, driving nearly 5 years, 3 years NCB and three points!

I've decided now that if one fits where the Radio display/clock does the boost gauge will go there and the Radio is getting moved into my glove box and the two oil ones mounted on CF plate fixed in that hole

Just ordered the group N mount from Ktec too as mines been fucked about a year lol!

 

[Greeny.]

Yes your engine moves around like f**k tbh!

 

[Timmay]

!!! ouch. I had to do a 40 mile round trip and left the top mount knocking, which fucked my driveshaft bearing ¬_¬

 

[DannyR]

Hmm, maybe thats why my diveshaft is fucked now then lol?

Getting driveshaft replaced tomorrow so we'll see

Gauges also came today so something for the weekend!

 

[richy22]

Danny I cant find the Carbon

It was here but I cant find it for s**t..let me have another look during the day tomorrow

And I was referring to myself with the switches comment although I have no idea why now??!! :S!!

 

[DannyR]

Lol, ok mate! Be good if you could! Trying to work out how I'm going to get the oil pressure and temp gauges in though, anyone else done it?

 

[saltyhair81]

Quite possibly mate. It puts a lot of strain on the box I think. I had mine rebuilt anyway as all the bearings were shot EDIT: I personally wouldn't bother with yours though. That way when I gun it after you and it pops out I'll have half a chance

 

[DannyR]

Gearbox was rebuilt last year Still under warranty.

When you driveshaft went was it just vibrating, and it got worsre and worse up tp 70 then it stopped as was spinning past int centralised itself?

Mount them to your foreskin.

Yes something like that, and the box was loud as hell. Think the mounts had been shagged for sometime really (before I owned the car) Although it didn't stop past 70, just got louder!
