Default MadDad(TM) Ultra Gauges - GB begins

I've had a bunch of PM's with guys wanted to be first in line for the MadDad(TM) Clarity Ultra Series 66mm gauges. We're only make one more pre-production change, refining the startup sequence a tad and then we are going to production so we should see these sometime in August, the later half. As with any GB we do you are not charged until we ship the product. Our website will securley gather your billing info but will not charge.

The GB will net you any 3 gauges and a free wireless remote for $449.95. Shipping will be calculated on checkout(it's not free but this stuff isn't all that heavy so it won't be much). We haven't set the retular price in stone but I can tell you the GB will save you at least $100+ . I will let the GB run through the end of August and maybe for a week or two after.

Other items such as Add-On control devices(turbo timer, aux. fan control) and the external warning lamps do have a charge and you can select them from the drop downs. The best install options is going to be an ATi pod or similiar. The 66mm faces fill out the ATi pod almost entirely...cool. You will need a dremel to open the 60mm mount holes a tinge. These gauges are designed for 60mm holes/mounting but every pod brand is slightly different and every gauge brand is slightly different by a 1mm or two so just be aware you'll need your $19 battery operated dremel to open the holes a tinge. This isn't just the case with these gauges, it's quite common with most.

Gentlement place your orders...(just use Add To Cart below)

Add to cart



Feature Summary if you haven't already seen it in the announcement forum:

* 66mm gauge faces are larger than the competitions filling out a 3 gauge 60mm(they fit into a 60mm pod) pod very nicely. The extra 6mm size combined with the logo free clean face design Clarity gauges are famous for means easy at a glance reading like no others.
* Power on needle sweep very similiar to a Subaru Impreza WRX/STi with only the needle lit up on the initial single startup sweep.
* The latest generation of LED backlighting. Visibility is not washed away on sunny days unlike most "smoked" lens blackout gauges.
* Power off the gauge faces leave a soft light grey silhouette very similiar to a stock WRX/STi cluster. This is different from a blackout. These look more similar to how the STi cluster looks rather than like all of the existing "black out" style gauges on the market.
* Amber/Red backlight matching a Subaru Impreza WRX/STi and many other cars such as Mitsubishi EVO.
* User adjustable warning lamp. (lamp lights and needle flashes)
* Audible warning - can be turned on/off.
* External Warnign Lamp Port - each gauge will interface with large external warning lamp(shift light type) available separately
* External Device Control Port - allows adding functions to the gauge, using the gauge face as a device control plan:
* Turbo Timer - intefaces with Boost gauge Control Port. Adds turbo timer function. Set run time using gauge face/needle. Require use of wireless remote(including in all 3 gauge bundles).
* Aux. Radiator Fan Contorl - interfaces with water temp gauge and activates on water temp warning setting.
* Intercooler Water Spray Control - TBA
* 50 second datalog record/playback(playback on gauge face)
* Pressure gauges include calibration set function to "0" the psi level for given elevations ensuring the best accuracy.
* Peak value record and recall
* Aluminum housing to dissipate heat.
* The higheset quality sending unit available. All sending units accurate to within 1% max
* Best off all - NO CONTROL BOXES to clutter your dash and NO BUTTONS on the gauge face cluttering the clean look. All functions are controlled by a multi-function wireless remote included in all 3 gauge bundles.

it only costs something like $40 to do this yourself without any gauges necessary.

Are there any videos or pictures of these? I would like to see the start up and shut down ceremony with lighting and what not. Also, are these only in Amber or can there be a mix of white and amber, white for day and amber for night, that is of course if the amber has low lighting in the day.

Any pics of the air/fuel gauge? Is it wideband or narrow? Does it work with LC-1? Worth getting to match?

Hmmm. These look good. I'm going to wait a bit longer, though.

Rich, what kind of sending units are these going to have? Or did I miss that in your post.

Is the dimming on these gauges adjustable with the factory dimmer? I remember something awhile back about the other V2 gauges on how they weren't and was wondering if its the same with these. Other than that these look very very nice and might make a nice interior upgrade!!!!
