Also today I installed some PCV intake hoses. Mostly for aftermarket intakes they remove the stock intake resonators. I like these for they clean up the engine bay along with giving a more direct flow to the intakes and being there made from top quality material they'll defiantly out last the stock hoses.

Here is some quick rough pics of a little prodject I'm working on. I'm currently shaping this piece of metal to install in replace of the cubby door. I still have some smoothing out to be done. I will be installing a oil pressure gauge here. Wish I could do two gauges but there's really no other worthy gauge on a NA car.
So it will look pretty simple but better than the plain cubby door that I never use really. I haven't offically decided on what finish I'm going to have on the plate. Wrapped in CF or what not. If anyone is familiar with the removing the cubby I'm going to be mounting the plate in between the outer trim and the inner cubby hole trim. They are two seperate pieces that butt up to each other. I feel I will get the cleanes look this way. I want some of that race inspired look. Anyways here's some quick pics. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I finally got a solid game plan of how I'll be installing my plate to install my gauges. You will see from the pics that I've monted the plate between the outer trim and the inner trim (cubby hole itself). When you seperate the two and insert the plate just bolt it back down which basically pinches the plate in place. It wont come out for I tried so slide it around to make it fit perfect and it wouldnt budge. Had to loosen it up to slide around.
I plan to use two gauges now (oil pressure and water temp) for I couldn't get past just having one gauge there. Plus a water temp is a lot more accurate than stock. I'm also going to try and place the gauges a bit lower on the plate so in the future I'll be able to add a scan tool gauge or toggle switches if needed. Now I'm waitng on my gauges so I'll know how big to cut the holes in the plate then I'm going to spray it flat black. Stay tuned. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Just for jokes ![]()

Now that sounds great. Hoping my gauges will be here by the end of the week. When I get the holes cut for them I'll contact you.

Here's my gauges I'll be installing. Oil pressure and water temp. Don't mind the water temp on the left. The gauges are universal and I still have to change the backing to the proper one. I bought the Greddy sandwich plate to stack onto my oil cooler plate. My plate I made for my gauges is going to be powder coated. So that will be nice. Hopefully I'll have this next weekend by Monday.
