Gauges
Gauges
Hey I recently purchased some headlights and since they were on back order and came in late, the shop gave me some gauges and an a pillar. Heres what they look like.. By the way can someone tell me what is needed to hook up water and oil?

Water temp requires a fitting that goes in the radiator return hose
Oil pressure requires a T fitting in the pressure port in the back of the block.

The oil fitting is a bit easier, just some stainless line and a T fitting are what you need.
Depends how handy you are with the car and making things fit.

For the water gauge sensor I found a billet one made for a NSX that you could possibley use that is only $29.00

Instead of the DIY for the Oil sensor you can use the followiung
Oil sandwich adapter universal $68
The aluminum oil sandwich adapter is installed between the oil filter and block, and makes it easy to install aftermarket oil temp/pressure sensors (2 1/8 BSPT ports and 1 12mm port). Lowers oil filter by 30mm.
