    Default Complete Shts n Giggles!

    Just for shits and giggles, and to make my car SEEEEEM like it's high powered I just bought the (approx) 550RWKW modification every second down to earth Commodore Lover hates!

    5 inch Tacho Bro!

    http://cgi.ebay.com.au/SILVER-5-MONS...QQcmdZViewItem

    Of course, it had to be multi-light, to go with the re-occuring disco theme of the VR.. most likely will lead to a Red Shift Light..

    Will be making my way to the Auto-Elecs tomorrow for fitting costs.. cause i still can't for the mofo'ing life of me find that lead near the left strut tower!!!

    Laugh it up boys/girls!

    Since blowing my OLD kicker 800 (or something) WATT amp, I've said to myself, no more half ass-ness on the VR (thus going and buying an AMPLE 1200W amp), so I don't want a half assed job on the Tacho, so I was going to get it professionally done, I heard it's like $60 from auto elecs.

    no ****ing wonder I couldn't find the plug.. I feel dumbass x1000 now!

    *takes a mallett to Troy's subs!!!!!!

    Julie: I've always liked the look of 'monster tachos' always wanted one... I know it serves absolutely NO purpose but cop bait and complete WANK FACTOR.. but something I have always liked the look of.
    and I will be getting work done to the car in due course to require a Tacho.. so yeah...

    I wouldn't mind a taco with a shift light for my car. But I don't want a massive 5" job and an 11 graqnd scale is pretty pointless seeings I'm limited at 7.5.

    Just do what alot of guys do, have a shift light installed into the instrument cluster, works a treat.

    That would be cool... Oh wait, I have an auto, and don't need a shift light/any tacho really (In normal driving at least). Please tell me its a manual at least?

    Hey Minux, Im after a similar set up since I already have an existing tacho and am not a fan of the monster tachs. Only gauges I want are oil pressure and volts. Anyway do you know of any companys that make just an actual shift light for that purpose? I assume it will just be a little LED light.

    I know howards did it for a few guys, but in sydney i really couldnt tell you, any auto elec could rig it up, i am positive it wouldnt be that hard.

    I might have to look at those speco ones. Although my taco is out by a good 500 rpm but once I work out the limiter its easy enough to just take 200 rpm off that. And for the record I do drive a manual and being honda once I hit 5k the engine note doesn't change at all.

    iv got nothing against monster tachos, i dont mind them. even with a stock tacho already in the dash cluster i would prefer one because it would be more precise and wouldnt have to worry about the stock one sticking. and the shift light seems a good idea when your music drowns out your engine and cant always look at the tacho when to change gears (eg. going around corners or looking for traffic). i wouldnt mind the AutoMeter C2 series tacho (my avatar).
