I assume that you would want the boost and oil pressure to have the same units (i.e. bar or psi).

SMOKE range:-



Oil Pressure units available in PSI or BAR
Boost ranges :- 30PSI to -30PSI
2BAR to - 2BAR


EL Range:-



Oil Pressure units available in PSI or BAR
Boost ranges :- 30PSI to -30PSI
20PSI to -20PSI
1.5BAR to - 1.5BAR

Hi!
Have You considered ordering the pod for classic Impreza from Autogauge?
http://www.autogauge.com.tw/web/prod...tegorysubid=25

And another question. Does anybody know for how long does the illuminating layer lasts in the EL and what to do when it finally stops working?
I suppose that it isn't as easy as replacing a bulb in a typical gauge...

I'm definitely interested, but before deciding which type can anyone tell me what the pros and cons of the electro-luminescent type of gauge are?

Hi Austen_wrx,

I'd be interested in the smoked series (Boost, oil temp, oil presure).
I would love a pod too, but I'm still doing a little research as to which are good/bad/ugly. Apparently some are poor fits. Which one are you looking at?

I was having a look in the members gallery blob wrx vs bug wrx. Your car is looking great Which spoiler do you have?? I cant tell from those pics, but it looks really nice. Colour coded skirts, the alloys, the front lip all go really well. Great job

cheers mate

Shall i put you down for a set then?? This GB is moving a bit slow at the moment so a bit of patience will be needed

I haven't really gone into the pods much yet, as there are only 3 of us interested. Do you want a newage, or classic pod?? Personally i'm most likely going for the subaru OEM part as it is a good match to the dash, plus its the cheapest about (£70). I can't stand the wavy style pods, they look very max power

Count me in

SWPT - Smoked Series (Boost, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure) - possible classic centre pod

Austen do you have any decent pics of the Subaru OEM classic pod?? (The one on the Subaru web site isn't the best)

Cheers

Yes put me down
The newage pod too
From the picture, the OEM one looks like it replaces the clock, correct? It's not entirely clear from the pic.
I would prefer that, a din placement would not be easy to read.
I agree about the wavy ones They would look out of place in a standard dash IMO

Answering your early question, my spoiler is a morrette one that was also fitted to some special edition bugeye GX sports in 2002. I got it off ebay brand new.

You're probably right - was thinking that it was talking about late classics when it mentions 2000MY to 2002MY, but I think it means bugeyes.

For anyone who's interested I see ETS racing do a classic pod for £55:

My wife complained about my speed yesterday, even though I averaged 40MPH over 400+ miles, so I doubt if she will be seeing the inside of my car for a while!

(To achieve 33+ MPG requires great restraint!)
