steviewevie Thanks guys :biggrin:

Stav - thanks for the PM and your help. Russell - I am not far from Farnham, so let me know next time you're coming down !

I need to update my car's entry in the Garage now, get that all up to date.

I commented previously on how my gauge pod (which sits on top of the a/c controls and vents in the middle) is half-finished. I'm not really happy with it now that it's got the dials in and I can use it. Right now the dials are pointing straight-ahead, and I don't really like it. I'm going to try turning the dials a bit towards me, and see how that looks. Not entirely convinced I like the pod itself now either, though I will try turning it first, leave it in its half-finished state (it's just held in place with tape ! :blushing: ), and have a think about it. I would post up a pic but it looks rubbish :laugh:

What about a TRD gauge pod? Are you interested for one of these? The only con is that is 60mm dia and you have got gauges 52mm. Or what about a Greddy A-pillar gauge pod? Have a look here mate:

Thanks. It's personal preference, but I really don't like pillar pods. They just feel too close to me when I'm driving. As you say the TRD pods have the wrong size holes, though I guess it would be possible to adjust that. And it points straight ahead too.

Here mate if you are interested you could get one of this, it is cheap and seems to be good quality but i am not sure if it is original (looks like replica)

I've updated the garage with my turbo and other latest mods now. Still got a few more pictures to take and upload for the new bits though.

Love the work that you have had done to your car Stevie- well done. Its taken a while, but you got there in the end.

Waiting for more pics, as you have had other mods done as well? uprated brakes etc? Love to see some pics of these other mods too.


My little project - IS200 Turbo - steviewevie - 08-03-2018

Yeah I will take some more pics and post them up here too, as well as in the Garage.
