Thanks Bob, fingers crossed and cash waiting

Have you got some pics of the ones you got, and the pod which they're going into? I've managed to tap a Defi pod off a mate

 

Any news on these fella?

James

 

i got an email other day from him saying did i receive my item. i replied no then he said ok i will send out saturday so hopefully will receive my gauge soon

 

No sign of mine yet

 

Mine arrived today
Very nice looking kits, all I need now is to get some time to myself to fit them, having read the instructions it looks pretty easy particularly as I'm going down the sandwich plate route.

I've seen folks saying to wrap the threads with PTFE tape anyone know if this is necessary with the sandwich plate too?

 

ive tried ptfe tape an thread lock an both leaked so i went a different route. not much of dripping but something u can do without

Hi mate, just got an email back...
He currently only has the 52mm (7 LED, peak recal func.) in stock, and can offer these at £4 off per gauges, then a further 15% off this figure..
The total for all three (boost, oiltep/press) would be £160.13

Dave, Rich (aka fistaboy/FBtuning) mentioned that PTFE wasn't the best way to go... So i'm alittle lost with it all..lol..

 

Fek was that with the sandwich plate? I wont tolerate dripping, I was hoping to avoid having to take alternators and such like off but if its gonna leak i'll have to bite the bullet..

 

Thank you very much for finding out for me, much appreciated. Do you mean these ones:



If so, these are the ones I wanted anyway

If these are the ones I will definitely have all 3 off him. If you could let him know to reserve them for me and give me some contact details I'll get in touch with him

Regards,

James

 

Heres mine unboxed to whet the appetite of those waiting delivery

 

The best place for them is behind the alternator, and on cylinder no.3. This way you dont hae to do an oil change too...so, i think this way is the easiest. Very easy stuff...
Your more than welcome to pop down and i'll give you a hand fitting and finalising these... Im off all of next week...

 

Cool, just to make sure, he only has the 52mm, if you need 60mm he can have them by the middle of Jan, it will be a touch more on price..

 

52mm are fine by me fella

Would they fit in a tripple pod with the little buttons on? The ones pictured in the newage pod don't have them on - I'm presuming you can take the side buttons off then and they still work fine?

James

 

I already bought me opie oil and new filter, so I may as well do the oil change now
I'll give the sandwich plate a go, if it fails I'll take u up on that kind offer

 

it not all that bd a job mate with alternator. get an adaptor an say 300mm braided hose a connect up so can use oil pressure there. sandwich plate waste imo. mines sat in garage

 

Their not fixed and come with a double sided sticking pad & a 10cm or so cable so can be mounted anywhere, I will be sticking mine on the right hand side of each gauge & feeding the cable back into the pod so it's well hidden.

Dave.

 

Bob. Mine arrived this morning but on the box of the Oil Temp gauge is says they are "Super white and Amber LED illumination series" Not the 7 LED I ordered Part number on the box is WA6047B
The Boost and Oil Pressure state they are the 7 LED Version

 

Thats odd...i'll have a look at mine when i get in this afternoon mate. Just to double check, as we should have the same....
If it's not the right one, i'll get Dave to get in touch.

 

Thanks M8. Part number on the wrong one is WA6047B. Where the 7 LED ones are the PK-SC versions

 

How do I go about paying for these fella? I would like to pay for special delivery too if that's possible? I'm presuming they would normally be sent recorded 1st class?

James

 

were did you get the pod from ?

I was attracted to it by the low profile styling, I've seen some comments about it warping in the heat but looks sturdy enough to me (perhaps its been revised?) but I aint fitted it yet so I can't say for sure, time will tell I guess.

 

Im sooooo glad you spotted that on yours mate, it was the third one i picked up, and didn't think to check.
Dave sent me the wrong one too.
He sent me a WA6047B, so i've fired off an email to tell him about the hiccup and how we can return the guages to him with no lost to ourselves..(prepaid evelop or refund of postage costs)
I'll PM you when i get a reply.

 

No worries Bob. Good job I checked PM replied

 

thanks for that i am much liking the low profile of that than the larger versions

 

Thanks Bob, they look really good. Can't wait to to fit them

 

I've been speaking to Dave and have got some sorted

3 x 7 LED's (oil pressure, oil temp & boost). All paid for today, thanks for the help Bob

 

Gauges received this morning however, he's sent me a water temp gauge instead of a boost gauge

How did you guys go about exchanging yours?

 

I got 2 wrong gauges lol, but no worries, just get in touch with Dave and he will sort this out, as you ordered boost gauge...

 

As Unikat said, Contact Dave, poor guy, think he's used to an order at a time, and we got him alittle frazzled...
He managed to get a few orders alittle squiffy, but i'm sure he'll sort them out. Make sure you ask him how to return them, as he'll either refund you your postage via a scanned recipt, or send you a prepaid envelope.
If you need details, PM me, and i'll send you his email...
