New Maddad Ultra Gauges - Page 2

***diabloadsit*** · 10-09-2007, 08:56 AM

More like $350 on there website. I looked at them just a little bit ago. With the wiring kit and the gauge pod it will run you about $500

The Defis are similar to the STi sequence....the Ultras were designed to be an OEM match.

IUSTi - as mentioned the gauges look more OEM than any others with a font that matches the factory cluster. There is a startup and shutdown sequence. The startup is similiar with a single needle sweep, not 100% identical, then again no one(not even the Defi) are 100% synched with the factory needle sweep. It will be obvious that these look more "stock" though, as if it was something Subaru should be able to offer you.

diabloadsit - there is a pre-order GB going on right now that will run through mid November. Any 3 gauges runs $449.95, roughly 33% off the regular prices once the GB is done.

nemisisSTi - it was a minimum install just to get the camera shot(and some testing), normally that wire would go from the underside of the pod down through the dash. It was the boost gauge sending unit wire.

all4bspinnin - yes, these babies match the STi cluster color exact.

I'm not subscribed to this thread so sorry for late replies. On a parting note...these guages finally shipped from our factory and we will be shipping them to customes by mid week this week.

I have a set on order

and a Whisper catback.. Can't wait for either.

Do they possibly come in Green to match the WRX Gauge cluster?

rgt · 11-05-2007, 03:39 PM

Do they dim when you dim the dash gauge lights?

I believe they have a preset dimness that they switch to when you turn your lights on.

**boxtwo** · 11-05-2007, 07:21 PM

These look really nice! Anyone have them yet? How do they compare to the Defi's that folks really seem to like?

As far as what comse with the packages, it looks from the website like they come with EVERYTHING needed to do an install, including sensors, am I correct?

scottjua · 11-05-2007, 09:16 PM

Ahh! Why can't they be 52mm... I just want two in an Autometer Bezel...

Mine should be arriving today or tomorrow. I can't hook them all up, but I'm going to try and get the Boost gauge working. If I do I'll take some pics and maybe a vid.

Very cool, let me know. I hate to spend the money on Defi unless there is a real reason to do so.

Yep, I can't wait until some people get these installed. They look to be the same quality or better than the Defis at half the price. I plan on getting some of these when I go stg 2 (along with some other maddad products)

***Draco-REX*** · 11-06-2007, 10:20 AM

Ok, they're here and the packaging is great. Installation shouldn't be a problem for someone who's done this type of thing before.. I, however, haven't. So I'm going to tug on some sleeves and see if I can get some advice on where to hook up the wiring.

DragonXero13 · 11-06-2007, 11:56 AM

Draco, can you please maybe even post up a How-To and what not? I would really appreciate that if you could take the time to do so.
