about yur temp gauge.....thats the first time i've heard about sumthing like that.........u should invest in an aftermarket one and discretely mount it sumwhere.......throw up a pic of yur dash...........i want to see how it looks without a temp gauge. Neutral



I saw it myself... it's not only the new cef that comes without it. The tiida aslo has no temp guage. Only a blue and red light. I'm not loving that at all.

I also doubt u may be able to hook up a external one if the setup like my current one unless u put it as an independent unit all together.

~˜VëgŲ˜~, yup.....understand the universal look......i doh really like it myself.....but sumtimes its all u get........the higher end wheels will have what u looking for and BTW enkei has a luxary line......

A33_VQ35, an external gauge that has its own temp sensor like most electrical water temp gauges from autometer, is either u tap the block or u take a t-pipe from the current water temp sensor at the thermostat...........thats what i would have done

so wah going on in we thread dey? wah is de scenes? ttt

still looking for rims.........now I not sure if to go with 18's or go with 17's.....

the 17's will give me a 55 profile and so have more rubber to absorb the road on my end....but it go look kinda lame..........

the 18's gonna give me a 45 profile but I not sure I willing to risk damage.......the rims man tell me that although is a 45 it will still be tall because of the 225/235 width of the tyre.....

^^^VTC gears and on top u see the solenoids for it....

I don't mind the e-throttle but i cleaned my throttle body 2 weekends ago and the idle won't go down for sheit!!! There is a technique to clean it and i missed a step so i idling at 1100rpm's Sad Sad So moral of story don't clean it!!!
