Tony/Clint, and anyone else interested,

I'm currently working with Zero/Sports to see if we can come up with something with their current GRB pod design:



But obviously have something set up for us here in the States. Time and patience...and I'll have developing updates for sure.

I know for a fact that it'll be tough...but also expect to see something similar to the current Z/S triple pod that'll retain the factory clock.

That would be something interesting, the more i think about it the less i want the 2 JDM guages stuck on the instrument pod, just doesnt look integrated enough. keep us updated

it would be nice to also have a pod cup for the opposite side imo. i currently have to greddy gauges mounted to the steering column. if you position it right, the gauges do not really interfer much with the tach or speedometer. i think that steering column pod holders would be a great idea too.

hehe...glad you guys are all interested!

I have a shipment of Zero/Sports items arriving late next week. I don't think the pods are on there yet, as their 08 products aren't yet released to the public (I smell a new Zero/Sports Time Attack STi!) but I'll try and get pre-production units here in the States to start customizing/testing.

Thanks guys!

Just a precursory look at my gauges last night showed me that the upper hood for the gauges appears to be removable. Maybe a company can create a new hood with some extra gauge inserts. Will be pricey though

Has anyone tried one of these single din adapters?

Universal Single Din Triple Radio Face Gauge Pod - GS-U03

That is an Impreza dash, a horrid one, but an Impreza dash nonetheless.

yes! I'll pay for that too. can you imagine inserting a cd to flash the firmware in the nav to change those three USELESS dials into something that is needed.

I'd have to see one in person to know as i just can't tell by the pictures. It would be cool to get a mirrored image of one on the other side of the cluster as well.

Thats a pretty viable solution imo...but I do want to see if there is anything prettier first.

Wow. I may just have to do this. One gauge gets me everything I need.

PLX Devices Inc. - DM-200 60mm Digital OLED Universal Gauge

Comes out to $600 with the ability to read egt, boost and oil pressure. Looks like a pretty cool unit, just need to do some more research first.
