Wondering if you had any opions about them or their features, or problems with them?

For those that do not know, the gauges are all chained together and hooked up to a control module which can record and playback all the gauges in realtime. You can also change the background light colors and intensity for night or daytime. Another cool feature is you can set a "warning" limit on each gauge, and if the gauge passes that warning setting, the entire gauge facing will flash red to catch your attention.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced anything bad with these gauges as far as accurracy, not moving fast enough (such as the boost gauge) etc... I know Autometer makes the best gauges hands down and I use nothing but going forward when replacing broke gauges now....

I've seen them, way too much money for my budget, but they do have the WOW factor
 
A guy had them on his TT Supra this past weekend an said they were the coolest gauges he ever had except for the cost$$$$.. But his car ran low 10's so i'm sure he isn't going hungry since the purchase.. They realy light up @ night !! Thats one factor I liked about them an the flashing @ predetermined boost an rpm's is just an amazing feature.. I say go for it!! :biggrin:
 
I'm just worried about the accuracy of the boost gauge since its electric. I've never had a good experience with electric boost gauges, not even the aircraft quality Westache gauges.
 
when it first came out each price was 200 now i see some for 249 :confused: :confused: :confused: .

Rob,call Carl Brimer,he has the whole setup of nexus gages in his GN.He was showing them to me at the last race.
 
I actually recently installed the oil / water / EGT / boost and fuel on my T-Type and for oil pressure water temperature and boost I ran a mechanical guage in parallel. I noted no real difference between the mechanical and electronic guage.

As previously mentioned they are nice to have due to the fact that they light up nicely in the evening time as well as in the day time. I have mine mounted over the glove box and have no visibility issues. The warning features are great. All in all I rate them a strong 8 and the only reason an 8 is due to pricing, but you can't beat the installation ease with the daisy chain.

Yeah Pat, I saw them, thats why I was asking about them. He's the only one I know that has them, I'd never seen them before seeing his at the dyno day.
