gotta love it when you're waiting on car parts, you've waited all day, the car is up on jack stands and ready for the install, and the Amazon delivery driver arrives minutes just before sunset. :mad:

I'm looking at this gauge. It has Low and High warning lights.

My wideband and boost gauges are Speedhut (thanks to your recommendation). The one I just bought is obviously for under the hood. The in dash you're looking at isn't a bad idea :iagree:

I have the pressure gauge that comes with phunk's kit under the hood. I was looking at the Speedhut gauge to go into my cubby like the other gauges I have there.

I have phunks gauge too but it's turned all yellow. I wonder if the e85 discolored it. It's a real cheap gauge anyway.

If it turned yellow. It leaked internally.

Good thing I'm replacing it then :tup: I remember Charles mentioning that it's not a quality gauge. I think he was selling them for $25

This is just a motor that I sourced for a TT build. I would be pissed if my 14 Nismo had this issue. Luckily they fixed this with 2012+ models. Just need to pull the bottom end apart next and assess the damage

So, remember a couple days ago how I said I was gonna start looking into researching ls swapping a 240-280z?

Well, I did some initial research….holy sh1t prices for old z’s are not what i remembered from 10-15 years ago. :eek:

I expected some increase in prices but damn. A beat to **** possibly rolled rust bucket was going for over 5k. :icon14: I mean that’s just a parts shell.

Maybe wifey and I will just wait a few years and just pick up a new z35 at some point to go with our TT RS. :tup: She likes that idea as well. Not as cool but way less headaches.
