Hi all, I was looking at some of the Defi-Link Meter BFs (electronic blacked out gauges) and was wondering what people have thought of them, especially regarding readability in daylight or direct sunlight. Any info on this would be much appreciated.

Cheers

same...i've got white bfs and don't have a problem seeing them in the daytime

if you're really having trouble seeing them you can turn the brightness up - somewhat blinding in the night time then hehe :huh:

i leave mine on the lowest brightness in both day and night mode

Thanks for the replies guys, very helpful!

they're fine mate day or nite

just dont mount them on the exterior.... plz

Don't worry, that definitely won't be happening! :D

seen them in night, and they look wicked... however i would spend the $$$ on the engine.....

Apart from the $110 controller, the gauges themselves arent all that expensive compared to HKS, Apexi, Greddy etc.

I have the black faced/white digit BF boost on the pillar and is fine to see!

HA WHAT DO YOU KNOW, THE SEARCH ENGINE ACTUALLY WORKED FOR ONCE.

Hey, I'm looking to purchase some nice gauges. I would prefer if they were all matching. I need the whole gammet!!

-fuel pressure

-oil pressure, maybe temp too

-water temp

-exhaust temp

-maybe a knock indicator

-a/f mixture (is that the same as exhaust temp?)

-boost gauge

Please any suggestions would be great, what to get, what not to worry about. I plan on running the Power FC if that matters.

I have an R32 RB26DETT in my s13, up and running. Need gauges so I can beat the piss out of it with some peace of mind.

I've mounted the radio/cd in the back so I have TONS of space for gauges.

I'll spend what I need to, but I'd like to keep it on the low side. I'll give up looks for reliability if it saves on cost.

    • Seems to be the case mate , still an OK price for a grey import.
    • I’m interested in the carbon diffuser fins and Toshiba MFD screen replacement if they’re still available.
    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
