Which dash option look better !?

[cobrAA]

Considering getting myself a Haltech IQ3 installed by my tuner which would be exactly like Lucky's dash setup. So I'm sure he doesnt mind if I steal his picture :

I will most likely get 6000K Super white SMD instead, but you get the idea :


Or my actual setup with chrome ring, 6000k SMD and 320kmh Nismo cluster :






All in all, the whole setup will cost me about 1100$ in parts and labour with exchange of my Nismo 320kmh cluster. Whats your take ?

nismo cluster without the chrome rings.

Haltech if your serious about wanting more accurate measurements and more compact way of reading values. I prefer stack clusters. There's something to be said for analog tachs. Digital tachs don't give you quite the same visual reference

i vote for the haltech, but the nismo without the ring is realy nice too, do you realy need the haltech? or its just for the look? because its alot of money for a clutster

and what light bulb did you use in your actual cluster? mine as some blue plastic on the bulb but do not look blue at all

cobraa used leds. If you want it the easy way, there are pre-assembled kits on ebay for cheap

I'd keep the nismo: not into digital screens when it comes to speedo and tach... not sure about the rings too...

[cobrAA]

I put the ring myself, I like them

Already wrote in 1st post : they are T10 6000k smd :P I prefer the cool white then a pure blue or pure white.

And yeah.. Haltech have shift light built-in and let you see about anything your ECU can display, but I guess I could always keep a 10 inch 300$ laptop in my car too.. so yeah, I think its more for cool-factor than function or maybe I'm not enough of a driver to make good use of these parameters displayed.

I like your original setup, leave the spaceship look, just my opinion.

I'd say haltech when money ain't a problem. Forget the 20 year old stuff.

Id say something like this would look good:








This is 01 DIGITAL (do not look at it like Nismo 260 km/h gauge) Maxima speedo conversion that im currently doing!!! The main problem im fighting is not a spedo (R33), mounting actual gauge or making ECU understand what speed am i going with, the main problem is that speedo gauge have different colour bluish color plastic from factory, so if I use same bulbs it looks different and stupid!

Little bit time consuming but VERY RARE and UNIQUE...

I like and am doing the iq3. It just makes for a cleaner install no need for any other gauges like wideband and boost controller etc why not just run everything through the ecu? All those gauges are just as much money as the iq3 display dash and then you can keep the rest of the dash looking basically factory. I never liked the idea of digital speedo but i got an 8'th gen civic si a yeAr ago and now i love the digital readout.
