Gauges

[marlin74]

I am keen to explore the possibility of installing some gauges/meters in my E93 325. Anyone have any idea where to get brands like Defi and any good fabricators to get them mounted ? Anyone who has done this and has some pics I would be grateful to see them. Thanks.

Pivot has a 3 in 1 (Turbo boost, water and oil temp) gauge if I am not wrong. some of the VW and Audi are using it. You can try that out. I find it pretty neat.

Think ST Powered is the distributor for defi in Singapore, can try calling them

Re: Gauges

Get the Defi gauges from Yap Brothers. For the gauges mount, this is an unconventional way on my previous ride....

Re: Gauges

As for the ScanGauge, can get anywhere, for instance BVO.

Re: Gauges

Kenntona, nice gauge!
For scanguage, is it useful? I heard it can be used to clear error and etc.

I like the defi vsd, esp the new one and the price oso very nice too.

Re: Gauges

I quite like the defi gauges. I once saw a pic some time back on this forum where a mount had been fabricated for 3 gauges in the container above the gear shift Anyone remember these ? were they defi as well ? I can seem to find the thread it was in anymore.

Re: Gauges

Tks bro for the headsup .... The mount is not available at Yap or any workshop? And which workshop will know how to install?

Re: Gauges

Installation of the mount is easy. I did it at BVO. Installation of the newer gauges is more onerous, but still easy. The sensors are tapped direct, bypassing the ECU. If I am not wrong, previous Defi gauges tapped the readings from the ECU - indirect reading.

Make sure you check for availabilty of 52 mm vs 60 mm gauges/mount before committing both sides.
