    Yes, the gauges are from procarparts. And yes I was moving when I took the picture. I wanted to get a picture right as it was turning over, but there was no where to pull over. I had to slow down to 30mph so the needle would not be in the way of the numbers. lol
    Here is a picture of the car....my SE-i

    Did you paint it white? I've never seen a white SEi. 400K is awesome.

    Yea, I painted it white. It was a gray color, but the paint was all fading.

    As for the tranny. It is a 5-speed, and I have done nothing to it besides change the fluid every 30k and put in a couple clutches. The motor is original also, but about 150k ago, I did put a gasket kit in it because it was starting to get some oil leaks around the valve cover and oil pan. I can't remember how many timing belts it has had. I try to replaced it at least every 70 to 80k,so it has probably had 5!!
    The gauge needles I painted with a small brush and some model car paint that comes in the real little bottles. Worked really well. here is picture the day I bought it, and another one as it was being prepared for the paint job.
