Hey mate ill add your name to the list, i have been hounding speed hut for 2 weeks now to get the Stagea up on their 'getting number' board so we can get some deposits taken down etc... but they are dragging their feet

I have sent another email

Don't know about buying them all outright as the dollar is a bit crappy now and they will be a bit more expensive than when we first looked which is a pain, but unavoidable... So if you feel like buying them up and selling them on ebay feel free :laugh:

FINALLY!!!

Hey Guys,

Finally speed hut has taken a photo of the guage clusters etc and have got a build list up on their site! i have already put my order in and i would please ask that all of you who have signed up for a set do the same because the soon we start ordering the sooner we will get the required people and get them built!

http://www.speedhut.com/15orders_el_detail-auto_number-109.htm

Follow this link to the page, please note that by ordering the units you are only charged $1 at the time of order, the total amount is taken from your CC when the required number of orders is filled.... The important thing here is TELL EVERYONE!! get people signed up, go onto every stagea/nissan forum you can find and get people interested, word of mouth is the only thing thats going to get the required numbers.

I have been dealing directly with Aaron the owner of speed hut, so if you have any questions or require more information let me know. 

Bad news for us is that the Aussie dollar has suffered a bit of late making these a bit more expensive than previously thought... but nothing we can do about that

Cheers all

So, besides colouring etc, the basic layout of the dials will be identical, including where the km/h and x1000/rpm text is on the factory guages?

Will it be possible to get the kit without the console dials?

Hey mate, yeah it is possible to get the kit without the consol dials, but when i asked the guy about them to start with he said he would do them included in the price... its up to you

essentially they way it works is the tooling for the layout is just the shapes that need to be cut out, anything on the face can be changed, including having a MPH dial in the middle or just a KPH or MPH, a logo, Text, anything u want really. It does cost a bit extra though for putting a customised logo tho

cheers

will they charge extra for those of us with an RS4s who need a battery gauge in the middle of the small ones? and how bout getting the boost gauge to show psi?

D.

Hey mate, nah they shouldn't charge extra all you will need to do is send them a scan of your current gauges, like i said earlier the tooling is the difficult part, as in what they use to cut out and manufacutre the EL sheet, the printing is the easy bit, you can have ur gauges measure coolness or sickasbro..nes if you'd like :D And if you want it to mesure PSI be aware that the guage is set and programed to measure bar... so you would need to design the template accurately so you get the correct measure... ei. 1bar = 14.7psi etc etc

I don't mind doing the design work for anyone as i am pretty handy with photoshop/illustrator/indesign etc, so if you send me you scans i can make something up.

Coool?

i have to pull the console apart to change the hd soon so i guess ill take some pics then.

as usual with these sorts of things... lots of interest to start off with then when people are asked to commit the crowd goes silent... shame but thats the way of things

i'm still keen, just haven't pulled my dash apart to take photos of my gauges yet...

D.

If you sign up only $1 dollar is deducted from your CC, then when (more like if) the number reaches 25 then pull appart your dash etc. The sooner we can get these number up the more likely other people will commit. Its like walking into an empty pub... u'd rather there be a few peeps in there first before you go in. :blink:

Cheers

Hey guys, well cant do it tonight, though ill put my name and details down tommorw, hope they accept visa otherwise ill try and sort something else out. Btw, for those who read im scott. I have just bought a 99' stagea from japan through j-spec. Quick specs.. its yellow haha two sunroofs and well that about it :P Arrives august the 4th. Little performance mods planned for the next two years unless i do them stelth like. Ill introduce myself and the car in another topic later.

But yeah put my name down on the list, im keen.

Excellent :) i'm sure they accept Visa no issues there. Just get signed up doesn't take long we just need to get the ball rolling as i am sure more and more people will sign up when the numbers get higher as the likelihood of us getting it quicker is increased. Thanks Scotty

Bump! :D

After reading the possibility of changing the globes to a different colour being useless I went searching for this topic and i finally found it! :(

Any other people interested?
