wow..I'm suprised people haven't gone nuts on this deal yet!? (even though the thread IS only an hour old:lol: )

Super-Duper-Mega-Ultra BUMP ;)

Id buy it but i need a holder for it, anyone know of a gauge holder like the oem thats mounts on steering wheel but not not as expensive (its $100+ for a piece of rubber!)

David,

HKS makes 46mm cups, and you could always email Michael Pang @ www.omorimeter.com for a 45mm Omori cup :D

Order from me. :D I can get you anything that Omori Meter manufactures.

the hks cup fits the 45 mm omori perfectly; i have one for my boost gauge. you need to drill into your column, however, to run the wiring, but no big deal.

P-107 is for the OEM gauge pod ,it's just a face plate for the 45mm gauges and the mounting hardware, I don't think they make an 45mm A-pillar pod, nobody does as far as I know.-James

& I forgot about P-107 being just a panel, seriously :rolleyes:

I can get the 60mm Electronic Boost gauge with the white needle/green backlighting in about 2-3 weeks. EGT probes are $75 shipped.

Oh my dear lord - if you are pulling my leg on these may you spend the rest of your days in a Toyota Prius

I HAVE MONEY FOR YOU
PLEASE TELL ME YOU HAVE A 45 MM MECH BOOST GAUGE WITH A YELLOW NEEDLE!!

:D

I will paypal, credit card, write you a check, kiss you wherever you want if you just let me know what to do!!!

(Long story short, my gauges are complete EXCEPT for the 45mm mech boost, and I feared I would never find one again!)
Big thanks to Ballz for turning me on to this!!!!!

EDIT: Nevermind, I have suck - I just paypal'd you - it's coming from CirrusVK30@aol.com, aka Kyle

Seriously, I know I sound desparate, but I had on order 4 gauges - EGT, Oil Pres, Oil Temp and mech boost. I got 3 of the 4, and then the whole "thing" with Omori came up and I am SO anal I thought I was going to lose sleep cause I would never find a matching gauge to complete my setup! THANK YOU THANK, OH THANK YOU KIND SIR!

PS. where the hell did you get these from!? Omori supposedly stopped making them!?

whoa nelly!! Thaison..I think you better send this one a gauge..and quick! :lol:

CirrusWRX,
Good God, I would fly to Japan and make these myself just to avoid spending the rest of my days in a Toyota Prius ;) I do have a number of them in stock and will make sure yours is definitely sent out tomorrow.

Omori USA is distributing in the states and is very serious about meeting demand. J-Spec Tuning is very serious about meeting our customer's expectations and will stock a reasonable amount of gauges at all times. Obviously the Omori Meter line is so extensive that we can't stock every particular item type but we will be keeping the more popular gauge types in stock.

Just so you know we're not pulling your leg, check out the pic.

BTW, thanks for your order!

Did you contact Omori to make "custom gauges?" I've been on the line with Omori Malaysia and Japan, and they only sought to make our imperial wrx-look deal if they could be guaranteed 50+ manufactured units...if so, GOOD JOB! I'm sure they'll go like HOTCAKES! (wish I waited and bought an imperial EGT from you guys...but I'm still happy with my metric:D ) Looks like No'mori is back to Omori!

mmm....Omori ..magically delicious ;)

I'm interested in a 45mm psi boost gauge. Does anyone know if you can use the factory wiring to run one of these ok? Does the Omori fit into the stock gauge cup? I remember reading it's kind of tough to get it in there.

it does fit the OEM cup. spray a bit of wd40 on the outside of the gauge to get it in. yes, you can use the factory wiring. you will cut the harness off that plugs into the OEM gauge and wire it directly to the Omori.

I'd like to buy the WRX Look 45mm Electronic Boost gauge. Pls. PM or email me with details. Your website link isn't working. I can PayPal. Thanks.

I just purchased one through your site. I had to type in 'omori.htm' at the end of your site's url to get to the page 'cause I didn't see the link at the top of the page. That one works.

Looks like the link under 'Current Specials' takes you to "///C%7C/Tuner%20Spec%20I/J-Spec%20Tuning/omori.htm". Ain't gonna work. Get your web dude to fix his code.

Thai, i do want the boost gauge. should i call you next Thursday to check if you are taking CC orders yet? if you prefer to contact me when you're set up, i am happy to send you my contact info.

Phillywrx, PM'ed you

Mattyg, Thanks for the order and the heads up. The link is now fixed. You may need to perform a reload on your browser to get the revised page.

has anyone fit the 52mm into an OEM/Derres faceplate pod?

Just curious.

510 shipped for all three 52mm is what I am looking into.

+75 for the EGT probe??

It has been done before but it will need trimming of the faceplate. As for the price, $510 for all three includes the EGT probe. The only thing you need to complete the installation is to purchase a Subaru oil galley plug for about $10-14/ depending on which Subaru dealer you go to.

I will post the part number of the galley plug soon.
Thanks,
Thaison

Duh - I think I ordered the wrong gauge. I need a mechanical NOT an electrical to plug into the factory boost wires correct?

Please call or email me to get this resolved. Thanks.

Matt

Thanks for resolving that so quickly T. Great customer service!

just ordered some 52mm a little while ago. can't wait to get 'em

Hey Philly you mo-ron -- welcome to the 21st century. We're on the intarweb here, and us computer people use a little thing called PAYPAL. What time period are you living in?!!?

(Dude - I'll order a gauge via paypal for you if you send me a check in the mail since I kinda like you. Not as much as I like ballz, but the fact that you CALLED him ballz is what makes me like you even more... hehehe - sorry bReAkZ heheheh)

seriously, send me a PM or email.

Hi Neil,
Which one are you looking for? As long as its electrical and more of the "mainline" type (boost, egt, oil press and oil temp), I will have it in two weeks - Sizes are 45mm, 52mm and 60mm. I am putting another order together and a decent amount would be on the first shipment.

Can I ask what application this Cameleon gauge would be for?
Thanks,
Thaison

Sure you can ask :-). Seriously, the gauges would need to match the red lighting of the new STi. How much for Boost, EGT, and Oil Temp all in 60mm electric?

Thanks - Neil

Thanks - Neil
Lucky man - I wish I had the problem of matching an 04 STi gauge cluster...I was thinking about the STi when putting together subsequent orders. The fact is there are red needle with red backlighting/black face gauges that can be made by Omori. The Cameleon ones have white needles:( Plus, they are more expensive. Just my recommendation that you would rather wait for the Red needle w/red backlighting combo. I can get that but it will have to be end of April - mid May. Still in time for the first shipment of STi's:D

Pricing should be the same as the WRX look gauges. And as usual, they will be in imperial measurements.

If you're interested please email me.
Thanks,
Thaison

Great vendor, fastest service ever. Keep up the good work Thaison.
;).... Jim

Wow! The FedEx dude just showed up at my door with the boost gauge already. J-Spec rocks! Thanks! :D

Thaison,

Just ordered the 52mm egt gauge to match my boost gauge, it will go to the opposite side of steering column.

OK .. so I am being a bit lazy here and kinda a n00b .. but oh well ... anways what EXACTLY do I need to order to get the set up that Solidbreakz (sp) has in his ride? Have no clue what is in the middle of the column there .. but I like the dual pod look and it allows me to not put a big guage pod on my dash .. which in my world is a good thing. I am guessing a 45mm EGT and Boost gauge (factory wire up is electrical?) and the extra cup for the EGT is ?

Thanks in advance for the help .. my clock and dash thank you as well

Fej

Fej- I agree that SoLiDbReAkZ has a pretty sweet setup. SoLiDbReAkZ, could you let us know what type of pod that is. As for that thing in the middle, its a V1 radar detector - nice.

I could answer the question about the gauges though. The boost gauge can either be mechanical or electrical. If you purchase a mechanical one, you'll be bringing in a rubber pipe in from the engine compartment to the gauge. If it's electrical, the sensor remains in the engine compartment and a wire is connected between the sensor and the gauge. The EGT gauge is only electrical.

Looks like 2 OEM pods by the way they are mounted.

DING DING DING!! yup..I bought another pod from Exeter Subaru in NH. They charged me over $100 for just the cup, but they were the ONLY dealership i called that were willing to part out the boost kit. That is one EXPENSIVE piece of rubber, let me tell you... :eek:
There are a lot of nice, and CHEAPER 45mm pod alternatives coming out, or already released...HKS and Omori make some..as for other companies, no clue yet!

That's a great setup man - I couldn't figure out who you had to kill to get that other factory gauge cup - Yeah, it was $100, but man it is such a PERFECT fit, there is nothing else close to it. The contors, the shape, the size, the color - it's the perfect solution, though there are other "more than adequate" one's out there.

Free bump ^^^ :)


I installed the boost gauge in the factory cup yesterday, it looks awesome and works great! :D Getting it to fit in the cup was a challenge though... :o

Out of stock on 45 Mech Turbo Meters sorry- they will be back in three weeks.

Plenty of 45mm Electrical Turbo's and EGT gauges left. One set of 52mm Turbo, oil press and EGT gauges left.

Thanks,

These are going to be around for a looong time. I just miscalculated demand :(

Bump for a vendor that has been doing a great job putting up with me on a special order of Omori gauges at great prices.

In particular this 80mm twin turbo/EGT gauge - absolutely killer and frees up two center pod slots.

http://www.omorimeter.co.jp/usver/adch-425-bz.gif

Thanks for the mech 45mm turbo guage, it's in OEM pod, looks great, works great. My brain is so PSI. Good vendor. :D

Can someone please go into detail (electrical n00b detail) about what it takes to get the Omori 45 mm mechanical boost gauge into the factory pod?

Pics and a writeup on scoobymods would be a bonus :)

Well since you got a mechanical gauge it is OK you are an electical noob! :lol:

Best I can do you for is to combine the instructions from these two sources.

Defunct distributor but still has install guides.

https://ssl.autocenter.net/webparts/acatalog/page1.html
Subaru factory boost (column mount) install.

Hope this helps.

This job dosn't take much skill, just patience. The hardest part is lining the 45mm guage up properly in the cup before pushing it in, use teflon grease, wd40 or something greasy. Good luck.

yes please do stick around, when i turbo, which should be this summer i want some omori gauges, at least 3 possibly 6, i sure hope you are still selling, will you be selling the other styles as well, like the white needle ones? thanks

Ben

I plan on getting some white needle/green backlight combos - these will generally be of the 60mm PHW variety. If you're interested in a particular type (Boost, EGT, oil press, oil temp), please PM me with you plans for gauges.
Thanks,

How easy is it to install an electrical gauge on the steering column? I'm thinking about ordering the 45mm from you. Do you have any in stock?

Hey Thaison I got my gauges and the oil pressure sender, if you want I can post some pics once I get them installed. I'm putting them in a Lotec A-pillar pod. Thanks Alot I really appreciate the great service. Don't hesitate to buy from Thaison guys, he's one of the better vendors around. -James

Hey Thaison....

Looking to pick up a 45mm Elec Boost, 45mm EGT and two gauge cups for steering wheel mount (close to factory location).

Can you get me those two cups? If so, how much?

Hi JB,
I do not have the 45mm gauge pods right now. I am trying to find a high quality source that is more reasonable in price than what is currently available (Lamarco).

Here's a preliminary pic, I don't have them hooked up yet but I figured I would get a head start while I had a few free minutes.BTW this pod was a PITA to get these to fit, it would be nice if the holes were actually 60mm. I also had to cut the mounting brackets in half to get them in there to hold the gauges in place.

EDIT whoa I just noticed my mileage:)

where did you get your LT pod from. I ordered mine from vivid the same day I ordered the gauges and of course it hasn't arrived yet. I emailed them today and they said they don't have it in stock, but they will next week. Given their reputation I figure I better start looking elsewhere. Looks nice BTW.

I need a 45mm EGT gauge. Whats the price with the probe? What else would I need to get this installed? Is this something a fairly mechanic oriented guy could do? I installed my own mechanical boost gauge and muffler, but I'm not sure if the EGT would require welding or drilling. I have a catless uppie, but it doesn't have the hole for the probe :(

Thanks
Dennis

Hi Dennis,
The 45mm EGT Gauge comes with everything you need for installation, including the EGT probe and the bung to tap the exhaust manifold. You do not need to buy anything else - except for a pod.

The installation of the gauge itself + the wiring is pretty easy. I am pretty mechanical myself and installed the gauge but decided to forego the drilling and tapping of the exhaust manifold. Left that up to a profession. There's going to be a lot of opinions on how hard/easy this is and whether you should remove or not remove the manifold to drill. We probably don't need to debate this here ;) but as a vendor I will always side on the cautious approach and recommend removing the manifold, drill, clear out the shavings and tap.

Try this thread - the person, Brian, who started it got some great pics of the install

Hi Dennis,
The probe goes into a bung that is provided with the gauge set. The hole that needs to be drilled and tapped to accomodate the bung is 1/8" PT (not NPT).
Thaison

OT

So what does this mean in terms of a tap? Are there PT taps available from vendors in the US?

Thaison, are taps available from Omori? I haven't seen any in the accessories section of their website.

http://www.omorimeter.co.jp/english.html

OT

The thing is the directions say 1/8 PT not 1/8" PT. I think the 1 is pitch in mm and the 8 is thread count per cm. The measures would be metric not imperial.

Going to start a thread in Electrical and Lighting to move the discussion out of the For Sale.

So I did mine tonight, and Jimmy0000 said it best, "It looks TRICK AS H3LL!!" I love it - it's great, thanks J-Spec!

Anyway, I threw together this little PDF, and sent a link over to Kaslte at scoobymods.com -- so until it gets posted over there, feel free to check it out!

Please, if you could right-click and "save as" to save my bandwidth, I'd really appreciate it!!! Thanks!!!

bReAkZ - don't worry about Dookie - he has "issues" with his headlights that he just doesn't want to admit. He also doesn't want to admit that my stock ride with morettes is WAY faster (even with 10 people in the car) than his wimpy Stage4+ ride. And I'm even FASTER now with my dope boost gauge. Poor dookie can never win :D

bump for great vendor.

I currently have a Defi 52mm D-gauge EGT. It uses a 1/8 NPT nipple which I have installed in my manifold. I'm considering replacing the gauge with an Omori WRX OEM 52mm EGT. My question is, can I keep the 1/8 NPT nipple already installed and use the Omori probe? I really don't want to remove the nipple already installed. Thanks!

how much longer will these be in stock? I've already spent way too much money on my car this month and CCs have limits :lol:

Bump for an awesome vendor! Thaison was very patient in helping me find and understand what for necessary for my particular EGT application.

Best of all, when a problem arose **on my side** (I didn't check my email like a moron), he worked to clear up my mistake and meet my needs.

After this experience, I will definitely buy from J-Spec again, and would encourage any of you on the fence to do so. He has great business ethics and genuinely cared about my situation. Thanks a million, Thaison!!

Hey... whats the latest on the 45mm Mechanical Boost Gauge? Also, what the difference between it and the Electrical? Other than price, why would one want the to go with the Mechanical??

Hi,
All gauges should be in on Tuesday, April 22nd. When I verify the shipment, I'll turn on Paypal for all the gauges again.

As for Mech vs Electrical - the electrical gauges has a warning function. The electrical 60mm gauges also have Peak, Hold and warning functions. Mech doesn't. If you want the warning function, go with the electrical. If not, stay with mech for boost. For Oil press though, I would highly recommend electrical. A mech oil press gauge would require you to bring oil from the engine, through the firewall and into the passenger compartment. 100 psi of oil in the pass compartment is generally not a good idea.

Thanks,
Thaison

I think that is one type of Omori 52mm din panel - I think it is unangled with hoods. There is another type that does not have hoods but each gauge slot is angled (30 degrees I believe). I have already ordered the angled one and will have it shortly. :)

Hey guys .. just wanted to see if anyone had the 52mm din plate and could post pics of their install. I am really trying to avoid the big gauge pod on the dash ... really don't need the extra attention :) So if you could post pics it would be great.

Also Thaison are you doing any package prices for 3 gauges and a din panel? ;)

I have a 52mm DIN (the one without the hoods) tracking and in route I will post with three Omori gauges when installed.

By the way the big pod is not intrusive where it is located - the top is about 100mm from the center pod mounting location. As for line of sight I can see the entire hood scoop over it so it is not an obstruction. However, all I have to do is glance and I absolutely know what my turbo pressure and EGTs are. I guess for now the only attention it requires is that it looks so kewl I just have to keep looking at it - hopefully the novelty wears off. :p

It should with minor modification. Mine is arriving this week so should know soon enough. :disco:

installed my 45mm mech boost and it looks awesome!!!

But my needle seems a little jerky as it sweeps. Anyone else experience this? Seems to rumble and move with the idle of the engine. Is this normal? Maybe my vaccuum hose is the problem.
ANy suggestions/help?

thanks

the needle on mine doesn't move at idle at all....only moves when it's supposed to :D

Check the pressure hose, make sure everything is on tight--and that the T-fitting is secure.

And that the brass fitting in the T is going to the gauge.

Hi,
The movement you described is not normal. Yes, please check the hose and the 3 way fitting. If there is still an issue, give us a call and we'll make sure everything gets fixed.

Thaison,

I used all factory setup for installation as I was replacing the stock gauge, just popped out old one and put in Omori gauge.

Double checked all vaccuum lines, no kinks and line was snug up tight against back of Omori gauge...needle still looks flutterly/wobbley when it sweeps...:confused:

called you and left a message.

Thanks

Mark

When I did the installation, the only thing left from the original kit was the electrical wires running to the radio, and the mounting cup on the steering column.

I understand most haven't done this, but I replaced the hoses and fitting with the Omori pieces. NOTE HOWEVER: that a special t-fitting (P94) is required, as is not the one included in the box.

If worse comes to worst, just ask to have a P94 fitting shipped to you and swap in the Omori hoses.

just got off phone with Thaison (awesome customer service!!!) and decided on a plan of action.

thanks everyone for help!

i'm trying to add the P105 panel to my order and it keeps killing my shopping cart and throwing me into the paypal home page. :confused:


Since you are offering the din panel free can i just write it in on the comments section of the check out?

I just wanted to relay a story to you guys that is a prime example of what customer service is and the benchmark that all vendors should aspire to.

I recently purchased a 45mm Omori mech. boost gauge from J-Spec Tuning. I installed it and after about a day the needle started to experience some jerky fluttering movements during its sweep. I emailed Thaison about this and the same day he offered me some advice about changing out the factory T fitting. I proceeded to do this but to no avail. That night Thaison phoned me at my house at 9:00pm, which speaks volumes of his commitment and customer service, to verify that the problem had been remedied and that I was satisfied. When I told him that the needle sweep was still erratic, he promptly offered up a replacement gauge, no questions asked!! I received the gauge today and am very happy indeed.

This ladies and gentlemen is a class act and the type of vendor that is a sheer pleasure to do business with. I have nothing but praise and admiration for Thaison and his operation. He and J-Spec tuning are an invaluable asset to our Subaru community and have earned every bit of patronage and respect from this Subaru owner.

Best Regards,

Mark

:D

Hi John,
Still pressing for the 1/8NPT nipples. They were not able to secure it for this shipment. I have definitely impressed upon them the importance of this fitting.

Please stay tuned - sorry.
thaison

Thaison had warned me there was substantial work involved to get the 52mm angled faceplate to fit the stock pod.

I knew it would fit (based on seeing installations of flat faced 52mm pods that didn't look that bad) and went ahead and ordered. It does fit!

But by no means do not estimate the amount of work that needs to be done. The stock housing needs to be cut and the faceplate needs to be cut. How the top of the faceplate area on the pod looks when you are done is highly dependent on your skill at working with plastic, the amount of planning you do and your level of patience. I am completely satisfied with the result until I find a pod I am happy with that fits 52mm gauges. (I personally don't like the DEFI design - it is too much both in regards to slope and hood size and faces straight back.)

I will post pictures after I have touched up some of the scratches I inflicted on one part of the faceplate.

The exact mods are you need to trim off the lip on the left side of the faceplate. Trim off the right and left lips on the pod. Trim the inside of the tabs on the faceplate. Trim the top of the faceplate area to accept the height of the faceplate (this is the area that may look the most hacked depending on your skill). My choice of attacks at installing it was intentional so that any poor workmanship showed up underneath the upper lip of the pod where it hopefully would not be as noticable.

If you decide to do this: have confidence, have a plan, have patience and like I do have a spare stock pod. :lol:

To repeat it fits, it works - it is NOT easy.

The 45mm angled face should pose less problems since though the outside is the same size it can be mounted from the back instead of the front as I needed to with the 52mm.

Oil pressure remote mount sender hose installed in the gallery plug used by the stock oil pressure idiot light behind and underneath the alternator. (Please always disconnect the battery ground when messing with the alternator hot wire.) When I get the T-fitting I can have both the stock and aftermarket oil pressures off this same tap.

I have installed from left to right an 80mm combination turbo/EGT gauge (EGT still not hooked up since I still haven't done the uppipe, :sigh: ), 52mm intake air temp, 52mm oil pressure (with warning), 52mm oil temperature (with warning). Note that 52mm is a very difficult install in the stock pod. I went from the front and so it is a bit hacked up - if I were to do this again I would install the faceplate cutting from the rear. The bottom, left and right of the pod need to be trimmed and the left of the faceplate needs to be cut (I tried to bend it slightly distorting the left cutout.

Much better than stock, no?

http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=243103

This is a shot of lit up. Note that the backlighting is slightly brighter than the dash. This does a couple things with my crummy 2.2 megapixel - it blurs the gauges (which are actually quite sharp when lit) and it also way over exagerates a shadow on the turbo gauge that I can only figure is due to the EGT LCD in the center top of the gauge.

http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/attachment.php?s=&postid=243105

Thaison thanks a lot for putting up with me through all this and getting everything that I wanted special orders and all. Let Omori know they need to find a way to fit one more light at the top since the present lights are slightly shadowed by the LCD. Oh and make an 80mm pod cup so we don't have to use a VDO :gags: . Other than that extremely pleased.

NOT TO BASH ANYONE, BUT I RECEIVED THIS E-MAIL ON 5/5/03 FROM OMORI AND THIS IS WHAT I WAS TOLD:

Thank you for your email.

Please be advised at this time that Omori Meter North America has unexpectedly ceased operations for the time being. Our manufacturer in Japan has been unable to fulfill its contractual obligations to us, leaving us with little to no inventory of gauges and parts to provide our North American customer base with an appropriate level of service. At this time, new Omori Meter products will no longer be available in North America until the situation can be rectified. Currently, we are taking legal action on behalf of ourselves and our customers to restore distribution and provide the service you deserve.

If you are a current customer in need of service, we regret to inform you we will be unable to provide you assistance at this time. Since the manufacturer is unable to or simply refuses to supply us with replacement gauges and parts, we have no way of providing you warranty service. This is beyond our control, and we sincerely apologize. Please understand that Omori Meter Mfg, Co., Ltd, in Japan is solely responsible for the current situation we face, and that we have been left with no support from them just as you, our paying customers and distributors, have.

Eric, I'm 99% sure that these gauges for sale here haven't been sourced through Omori-NA. They've been under stress from Omori Japan for months now.

However, Omori Japan is manufacturing gauges based on private contract of 50 or more gauges per order.

I'm to assume that Thaison is one of the intelligent few that is making use of this opportunity.

To back this up, almost all the directions i got with my gauges are in japanese :)

Attention to detail - go to Omori's site in Japan.

http://www.omorimeter.co.jp/english.html

Now go to overseas dealers link.

Note Omori USA is the distributor for America. Omori NA can say whatever they want - but clearly there was a falling out and I am sure there is another side to the story. (Like I have had a problem with almost 90% of the vendors NA used to try to distribute through.) Either way Omori USA is the entity supplying J-Spec and Gruppe-S since those two are dealers of Omori USA.

http://www.omoriusa.com/auth_dealers.htm

So you are communicating with the wrong entity if you want to contact current distributors or dealers of Omori in America.

Omori USA is doing well since becoming the distributor and is supplying their dealers very well for a product that has never been widely available in the US.

I have a set of 3 52mm gauges
EGT Fuel Press, Air Fuel.
All are installed, but I cant find a decent gauge pod to hold them...
I bought one from another vendor, and it doesnt fit the car or the gauges...
I would prefer a pillar mount for all three gauges, but it has to fit the WAGON, and fit corectly. Dont want it looking rigged...
If not a pillar mount, does anyone make a 3 gauge pod 52mm to replace the clock insert...
I want one that attaches like the oem clock... Is this possible?

I am also interested in that 45mm PSI boost gauge to replace my stock gauge

At this point I am undecided between a 45mm or a 52mm mech boost gauge. I have a 2004 WRX, so the gauges have changed from a yellow to a red needle. They still have the green backlight as the 02-03. Can you get either boost gauge with the red needle? If so, how much and in what time? TIA.

boosteduuarex - Unfortunately, I haven't found a decent pod for the 52mm gauges that fit the clock insert. Still searching though. As for the 45mm Boost gauge in imperial measurements, we still have a few in stock. They could fit with just a little work. CirrusWRX created a great write-up on how and I have his document ready on my site for download - thanks again CirrusWRX :D

Jasvboost - I have the red needle on green backlight, imperial measurement boost gauges coming in around mid-June. The price will be the same as the 02-03 WRX look gauges.

Thanks,
Thaison

THANX for the reply! I will be on the look-out for a post or on the site. ;) Can't wait!

Thaison-

You have Paypal.....

Hope I got in while the WRX 45mm Mech Boost Gauge was still in stock.

Now I just have to screw up the nerve to start cutting wires on a 3 week old car.

Do you have anymore of the 45mm mechanical boost gauges in stock? If so, I will take one. I want the one that is PSI reading.

Very limited supply of the 45mm mech boost gauges. A few of the electrical 45mm boost gauges left too. All of the gauges read in imperial measurements (PSI for boost).

How about......All that^^ in reverse indiglo. White face, green numbers, red needle???

Bump for J-Spec...

I ordered my 45mm WRX look boost guage from them and it came to me quickly and without problem. The guage looks great inside my car... no more mismatched guages :D

-Bob

Glad you like the gauge dookiebob. Thanks for the bump.

-Everything back in stock.
-Addition of 04 WRX style gauges in the 45mm size.
-HKS single pods are in.

Edited the first post to reflect the additions and availability.
Thanks,
Thaison

Bump

Got mine today. Very fast shipping from an awesome vendor.

Thanks,
Jason

Very interested in these gauges. Do you have to cut the factory wiring? My car is leased for now and don't think I can cut the wiring :rolleyes:
Also interested in the HKS gauge POD but don't see it on your website
Thanks

Do you have the "sport" gauge pack?

If so there is nothing to splice on the OE wiring you can put male bullets on the Omori wires and plug them into the pack wiring. I did not need to splice a single OE wire to install any of mine. Routing senders well that is a different story. :)

No splicing - it is just routing senders which is always a bit of a pain.

i want a 45mm 03 WRX look mechanical boost guage. how much and do you have it in stock? i can pay today with a credit card.

No I don't have any gauge pack. I didn't like the factory ones at all.
I installed the alarm upgrade myself and there was all the wiring pre-wired and tucked under the dash is there anything like that for the gauges?

Sent you a pm :)

jjimpreza - We only have a few 02/03 WRX Look mech boost gauges in stock. Lots of electrical ones. As for tapping for power without cutting wiring - it can be done but you will need to fashion some electrical fittings to tap the extra outlet from the stereo.

xjohnx - a few in stock and you can order via the Omori page on our website.

We have posted pics for the HKS pods for the gauges. For your convenience, I have also posted it here.
Thanks

Ordered one, please make sure mine is the 03 look one as i did not see any sort of way to distinguish on your website. My name is John Tatum and it'll be going to Richmond VA :)

This plugs right into the port installed OEM pod right?

Shot you over one last pm ( I promise!), then I'll be ready to make payment.
Thanks!

Out of 02/03 WRX look 45mm Mech boost gauges. All who ordered today will have theirs sent out on Monday. Still have a few 02/03 electrical ones in stock.

xjohnx - The default is 02/03 look. All others will have a rr or rg after the description on the order - Red needle w/ Red backlight (rr) or Red needle with green backlight (rg).

Cool, so i got my order in in time to receive the 03 Look mechanical one, right?? :)

Ive had a horrible experience with my hks 46mm gauge pod. The omori 45mm mech. boost guage fits inside it perfect, but it mounts rather bad and the green piece of plastic to hold it up is sloppy. It slightly blocks the tach from 0-2000 rpm. The back pops off on mine also :( . Sorry to post this since you carry the hks pods, and you delivered my gauge on time in perfect condition. Maybe i did a bad job install, i duno. Im going to buy an oem gauge pod housing and stick my 45mm omori boost guage in there. What other type of guage pod options are out there for the 45mm omori gauges J-Spec Tuning? Thanks!

apparently the stock pod works well.

Just Paypal'd you for the gauge and pod, Thaison! Much mahalo! You are a vendor to be reckoned with, and you'll have my business again.

Hi David,
I'm sorry you had a bad experience with the HKS pods. I started sourcing them because a number of my customers bought our gauges and purchased the HKS pods (from HKS) and really like it - hence the picture in one of my previous post. If $100-$110 for a pod is no issue, the OEM pod is the way to go.

We wanted to provide our customers a less expensive pod alternative. Unfortunately, for 45mm pod solutions, the only ones I have seen (and I have really searched too) is the HKS and the Lamco pod. And the HKS solution may not be around much longer since they have eliminated their 45mm gauge line.

Thanks,
Thaison

Well got back to this thread to late :( . I am want one for sure when you get them back in stock. How long till you get another shipment of these gauges (Mech. Turbo)?

The timeframe should be around 3 weeks - I hope. I will make sure to bring in a lot more next time.

Hi All,
I know a number of folks have been waiting a very long time for it but the 1/8 PT to 1/8NPT nipples are in. We had to get them custom manufactured.

The nipple are $15/piece shipped. If you are purchasing EGT gauges, they will be $10.
Thanks,
Thaison
