haha I try to keep myself going, but i try not to get to crazy with it at the same time. I dropped a bit of cash on ignition this time so itll be a bit before I do anything else major. Still need a new water temp gauge though, autometer sucks.

E, I got some B&M black out gauges there the shit!!!! tho they dont make a whole set so I went w/ some APCs that are similar

I have a prosport water temp gauge coming in. It kinda looks like those B&M ones you have. I'll put up some pics when it comes in. Shouldnt be to long.

i found an amigo in the junkyard near me, Shipping would probably rape you but just letting you know.

Thanks for the heads up. Broke as a joke right now thanks to all my new ignition stuff haha. Went and picked up my box today. Still waiting on my NGK plug wires and prosport water temp gauge. Hopefully my water temp gauge will come in tomorrow. Might put it all in then, might wait until my sparkplug wires come in. Either way there will be plenty of pics!



Some extra pics just to throw in (i know how everyone around here likes pics) we put a megasquirt pnp in my buddies miata. Its all plug and play so only pics I have are where we mounted it which i thought was pretty cool. The logo on the cover glows red when its powered up too.

Started working on the plate tonight. It's almost done, havent decided if i want to paint it or not.






This may, or may not be where I mount it in the truck. That side of the engine bay will change tomorrow and its going to give me alot of space so we'll see what happens.

water temp gauge came in today. Install pics should be up tonight assuming I get it all done.





the visor is optional, havent decided if im gonna use it or not

[LethalEthan]

Hooked the gauge up to my battery charger to see what it was going to look like. Im gonna wire it to light up white during the daytime, and amber once my headlights come on.

[LethalEthan]

The plate is mounted and everything is almost ready. ran into a little wiring problem but im trying to figure it all out now.



The new water temp gauge is in and operational.



The gauge face looks scratched in this pic but its not really. Something with the camera i guess.



The gauge does a self test when it is first started up. Here's a little vid.
