Reign, good choices... did you get 60mm or 52? Either way, they're pretty. first time you light em up you'll go "WHOA" and act like a 10 year old.
I might sell my soul for Prosport Peak and Hold gauges

52mm... I got the red ones! I cant wait! Im gunna have to get with IdealSupra or someone to change my gauge cluster from green to red, lol... I have the burgundy interior, so I think the red LEDs will be sweet in there... Im also very interested to see how close the stock water temp and the oil pressure are to the ProSport...
I like the stock green. I'm going to be replacing the LEDs in the gauge cluster with those wide-angle green ones. Hopefully I should be able to purchase the 52mm Green/White gauges and put them in the gauge cluster too.
Hey, do you guys sell replacement EGT sensors? The cable on mine got stuck behind my clutch, and it got pulled out, breaking the sensor off.
Scared the hell out of me when my EGTs went to 2200F. haha.

I'm really starting to like these gauges.. I keep coming back to this thread and checking the site... I been wanting the Defi Blue Racing gauge set. downfall is thats like $700 or some crap. but seeing these blue ones look sick. I'm switching my dash lights over to blue so I'm looking for something to match. so this seems perfect and damn good pricing compared to the Defi set I wanted.
Finally got this mostly done so I decided to take a (somewhat crappy) pic. They're 60mm premium boost, oil pressure, and water temp gauges. I wanted to put the gauges on the right on an angle but the plastic cover is really close to the gauge bezel and kept hitting them so that wouldn't work. It's hard to see but I drilled a hole in the plastic before each so I could hit the buttons. I'll add rubber grommet bezels to finish them off later. Sorry I can't show them in action yet. I picked these up from prosports shop in St Pete, FL since they're 10 minutes away. Glenn was really helpful and replaced my temp sensor immediately after I saw an imperfection in it(probably wouldn't have effected performance but I'm anal like that). He even gave me this neat light powered keychain that flashes on/off like the gauges. I also painted my gauge needles with dupli color super red II touch up paint and painted the gauge bezels gloss black.
that looks sick... I know this might not be the place.. but how does the 52mm look in the gauge cluster?? I figure i'll go with the peak warning gauges but want it green to match the stock look. with that I'm stuck with the 52 mm unless I get flashy and crack the 60mm gauges apart and switch it to green or blue since thats my overall look I'm shooting for.
damn those look really good with the bezels painted black.. imight have to take mine out and do that...
the 60mm fills up the whole a lot better than the 52s do too. Nice job.

Mk3runner see post #324 for 52mm gauges installed.
speed dodici, I like the original gunmetal color of the bezels and was actually thinking of painting rings around the rest of the gauges in that color to match the gauges but I couldn't find a rattle can or model paint color that matched. I think this way worked out better though.

Well, I finally got mine, well 4 of them, Im still waiting on another in back order...
Two of the Premium: boost and egt...
Three of the Performance: oil pressure, water temp and fuel pressure...
Havent hooked them up yet, but I like what I see so far... They feel hefty, and high quality... I think my only complaint is the two completely different housings between the two... I know the bezels are slightly off color from each series, but its the bezel thickness or width, or depth, whatever, that really, I dunno, I dont like... The premium series has a bezel about 3/4" thick/wide/deep... And the performance has a bezel thats about 1/8" thick... I dont know how they will look in my pillar pod coming out 3/4"... Other than that, I like them...
Will get pics soon...

hmm I never thought about them being different between the series (since they all look quite similar on the website)... guess i'm just going to have to get the premium series
I like my prosport gauges. When I bought them back in January nobody had ever heard of them but I chanced it anyway and don't regret it.
Why? Spend your money on a gauge that actually DOES something... Narrow band AF gauges are pretty useless... Get an oil pressure or water temp gauge... If you have a modded car, EGT or fuel pressure... Just my .02 cents...OfnaRcR4 said:
You can see from this profile shot the differance in the bezel thickness...
well, they are working on a WBO2 arent they?
edit, nvm, its a narrow band with a volt meter in the middle.

reign- lol don't forget it was not that long ago that the only A/F available was a narrow band and that is what you had to use...
