i dunno man... now the Taiwanese made are quite ok also... and reliable generally. i am not too keen to get 'branded' for that kind of price... it's just an indicator that it's norm, above norm etc on street and track (esp track of course)... installer and availability of spares are also important, and price...

for my current case (still not addressed yet - and today it's working again...) i strongly suspect is the installation and sensor position a bit wonky... so if it fits nicely inthe end i will not be considering upgrades to such 'race spec' meters.

I am looking for a cheep HUD for rpm and speed readout and shift light too if there is hahaha... Defi has one called the VSD. very useful for filming purpose... kekeke... but the thing is in the high end of 300 bux almost 400. maybe someone will demod and sell soon...

or a cheep taiwanese replica is available...

sigh... also thinking to upgrade to look like the beng mobile and lay down a row of 7 or more gauges in place of my current setup... sigh... no end to mods man... or maybe remove the topdash set and just keep on the inside dash mount of 2 meters on the instrument panel... just need the vacuum meter and possibly a volt meter only ba... better yet a clock hahaha...

oh well... see how it is in mid december... den say...

I'm pretty sure i'll be getting the defi NA package. Now is to compare quotation between bro foxbat lobang which require a waiting time of 2 weeks. Should be minor difference. So thinking whether to wait 2 weeks and save less than hundred bucks or not

This item can shift over to the next car, so i don't mind getting a slightly premium verison. Because, i believe my next car will still be NA (but manual, not auto)

It just happened, that i'm not a turbo person. I'm a cheepo

Anyway, i find the vsdx a bit too bulky for liking.

I won't be placing the meters on the board. That place is reserved

Something to read about, if you are interested.

thanks!! a good read...

below is the link to the AutoMeter the article talks about ..

this is not to be confused with the Autogauge (made in Taiwan) meters...

actually, i am planning maybe to get these instead... Unless I can get the 'old' style defi in white face and not smoke face. I like the white face red pointers, no need illumination for daytime driving.. i think they are better...

but that's me.

I still like the classic defi

But tacho is different, in fact unique design the have. I like their tacho meter more than their gauages
