I spoke to a local instrument shop (i think the only one in Canberra) and they said because my speedo is electronic and not an older mechanical cable type setup, i would need a piggy-back box, they said they cost about $320 for them to make and to re-calibrate my speedo it usally costs around $140, it would be cheaper to go and buy an autometer electronic speedo from Autobarn!!!

Even at the moment i think i have resigned myself to getting aftermarket Autometer gauges, but i aint going to be paying anything close to $500 for the f#cking speedo,
There is one importer in Australia of Autometer gauges, this one importer stocks all the Aussie shelves, like Autobarn or any other place that might sell them Retail, the mark up is HUGE!!!,

Mate who does importing quoted me around $850AUD, for 5 gauges, 5" Electronic programable speedo, 5" tach, and 3 2 1/16" elextric gauges,

Guy at Autobarn almost fell of his chair when i asked him to match the price Smile, he quoted around $1500AUD,

If you ever buy these gauges, do not purchase them retail in Australia, go to online stores like www.summitracing.com and you will pay literally half of what you will pay buying locally,

Dont suppose you guys know the threads of the oil and temp senders on the 2jz?
I wanted to get a Metric speedo and the other gauges are just the same line of Autometer gauges, so they match, Ultra-Lite,


I was going to probably get this gauge for the Temp,

And this gauge for the Oil,

Do you think im going to need an adapter to get these sender units into the 2jz, the website says they use a 1/8" NPT thread,

I was also planning on using this Speedo,
http://www.autometer.com/cat_gaugedetail.aspx?gid= 3138&sid=11,
Its electric and programable so i can just wire it in and program it to suit,

And this Tacho,
http://www.autometer.com/cat_gaugedetail.aspx?gid= 3140&sid=11

Will this tacho work with the 2jzge N/A engine???
