Not sure if they are good or not but I bought oil temp oil pressure and boost gauge £80

need to fit them now if you buy these gauges you will need a 3rd cylinder adapter plug and oi pressure t piece kit.

Go for the Propsort Steeper range from Xyberauto's mate..then a fitting kit from Scoobyworld.

I'm just off out to fit mine and there's a great guide on here on how to do it..

Trust me mate from experience...you need half decent gauges

You sure they got the white and then green option, and the boost guage is electrical not mechanical?

I know but because these are new out they are special order, i emailed xyber about these but the didnt even bother to reply So i got in touch with r spec and they can get them, failing that prosport direct, which is $300 shipped.
If anyone knows a cheaper place for these im all ears, well eyes

I've given up on my Swoosh gauges, getting replaced with these when I pull my finger out;



Crap picture, not taken by me for a change.

I bough ProSport gauges for my old skyline last month - £101 shipped from US and they were pukka - would highly recommend them to anyone.
