Which gauges?!
Ive just bought my '94 Classic WRX, and I really want to get an oil pressure gauge and boost pressure gauge in there. Now ive seen a lot of people use Defi gauges, of which i'd love to get, but the price is a little much just now with just buying the car also.
So my question is, what other decent gauges are out there what you guys can recommend?
Im willing to pay around £50-£60 per gauge just now, to get me through until I can afford some Defi ones.
Cheers.

mickyjeff is building a monster show car and has gone with these over defi's etc. obviously not as good, but nowhere near as expensive. im gonna get some of these babies eventually.

I've got some green illuminated Prosport gauges that will be up for sale as soon as I've fitted my STi Genome Defi's (Today - if I can drag my cold laden head out of bed..)

The Prosport gauges look pretty good value but does anyone know where I can get some to match my MY99 WRX dash dials; white backing with green illumination (so the markings are illuminated, not the whole backing)?

came from here
XyberAutos
Coming from Singapore so I'll let you know how it goes.... that and I'll need your help to fit them
Be carefull though they are only 2" so the normal 60mm mounts wont take them it just happened to be the case I wanted that particular centre mount and the mounts a 52mm for that!
**rsedwards** yeah no problem will do I've not seen anyone else with this combo before so may be worth a look for others as well!
