Dude, those look nice. I like the way you faded in from yellow to red. Why did you put zeros on the tach numbers (10, 20, 30, etc)?? Damn, I'ma save this. Purdy!!

i hit 7500 all the time. I have a 1986 hatch DX with a 2 inch straight pipe and cherry bomb. thats all and i have no air cleaner. the car is a beater and i am buildin a 1987 lude block with all poformance parts and a turbo off a road grater. the plumbing for the grater was cheap cuz i got it through my dad in the Armed Forces. The turbo was free. i know its big but i hope it will work with the little motor. oh well if it dont, i can take it off and put it on a V8. thats my 2 cents bout high revs. i also spent 500 Canadian funds on a better cluck for the stock motor. it is sweet i rev to 6000 and pop the clutch and the tires squeal soooo much! its sweet!

Yeah, do you have the tach with just single digits so you multiply by 1000 instead of 100? If so, what exactly do you do to get them printed and in the car?

to answer that, I'd check the HOW TO's Section, YK86 has some wicked good advice on his website, check that out

Shagen
08-09-2002, 01:29 PM

08-09-2002, 02:04 PM
awesome... thanks a bunch... i thought i would ask just some people dont like it when theire things get changed by others... what i did was add a dragon to the speedo and the tach.. the jap symbol for dragon on the tach... and chubs in 'wonton' font from wordpad on the speedo... i didnt really do anything to the f/t gauge.. not really enough space... i would post pics. but i cant.. i would like to.. i gonna work on a page for em tough so when i get it done ill put up a link

as for printing them out.. use the highest resolution you can.. make sure your printers head are clean so you dont get streaks..and use photo paper... to be honest i thing mat paper would be better but if you think glossy would go for it.. then go to Coasters how to page here

http://www.quickclic.net/~coaster/howto.html

And go for the custom indiglo gauges.. and im a fraid im gonna mess up my needles so im just cuttin a stright line right to the hole and just fitting it around it and pasting the flaps back down well enough so you cant see a cut mark... its a thought..

Does anyone have the org. scans? I'd like to keep the font the same as stock. But do some work with coloring and placing images in there.

Burton, whats soo wrong with KM/H? I kinda like it now, gives me something to learn about my car. LOL I think your guages are the shit, I thought it would be funny for a redline to say, "Take a minute and think of what your doing" but something smaller that represents that.

I also think you scans are nice :D I made some KMH stuff because THERE ARE NONE. HEHE :D Well there are some but they are always in smaller writing and I really dont like that.

I live in New Mexico USA, and I LOVE the KM/H I still need to learn it but, I'm about to install a Blitz Power Meter-ID and Blitz SBC-ID so I can know my exact horse power, and all the times and speeds. So that will help me learn MPH from KM/H.

hey uh Garbage..... not to be a "stickler for problems" or whatever, but i noticed a minor flaw on the Speedometer, the KM/H part, well the 20 looks like its not spaced properly..maybe its just me? But nice gauges otherwise :beer:
