#evogauges

Finally operating!!! This took more effort than it should have :( using two relays, one controls the two backlight options via switch and the other powers the whole system. At least now I can keep an eye on my oil pressure and it seems to be happy at 28 when warmed up and idling. Can't be bothered with the wiring hanging about right now. I'll get to that when the weather turns for the better permanently. For now, it's good enough since it was an emergency remedy since the OE guage is utter rubbish and likes to scare me into thinking there is no oil pressure at all. #prosportgauges #evogauges #prosportevo #oil #oilpressure #ledlcd #T5PWR (at O'Reilly Auto Parts)

Next project that has been bumped to emergency status... Engine gave me a scare yesterday when my already faulty oil pressure started spazzing out then hard-flatlined and not long after, my engine started chattering LOUDLY! Scared the shit right out of me. So since I got my compensation check from my Note 7 finally, I decided I could blow some of that money on much needed monitoring devices. Step into @prosportgauges #evogauges series :D Here is the first gauge I ever got from them, a volt gauge that I got due to my old 1.6 constantly eating generator belts and surprise-overheating the engine. I will be replacing all of the small gauges with Prosport's equivalent with the exception of fuel because they don't offer White/Green fuel Evo gauges :( I won't be touching the tachometer or speedometer untill I figure out an Arduino solution for the center cluster to take over all the missing guages/info (retractor, airbag, etc). But as you can see, it's like these gauges were made to be grafted into the MX-5's cluster! ;D #prosportgauges #T5PWR #miata #mx5 #gatewaymiataclub #NA #OLED (at Lake Saint Louis, Missouri)
