View Full Version : Defi Group Buy Strictly Driven 08-05-2003, 07:08 PM ----GB IS CLOSED----- allanak 08-05-2003, 07:15 PM Hell of a deal...count me in. Bump for Luke! Pressure package and the defipod for sure. RichQY 08-05-2003, 08:59 PM i am a noobie gauge buyer just wanna make sure i get this right to fit my STi i need 1. the pod 120$ 2. the Fitting Kit 12 $ 3. any gauge packes whats the visor and indicator for? thx krazedant 08-05-2003, 10:22 PM Wow that is a really good price. If I didnt already have the BF series gauges, I would definitely get in on this GB :p Bump for a good deal. Strictly Driven 08-05-2003, 10:55 PM RichQY - to answer your questions. I included images of what each item is. Fitting kit - Stand alone method to installing a gauge. http://www.strictlydriven.com/personal/fittingkit.jpg Indicator - Basically a shift light. http://www.strictlydriven.com/personal/indicator.jpg Visor - allows the gauges to become more visible. http://www.strictlydriven.com/personal/visor.jpg The three items are basically accessories. You do not need both the gauge pod and a fitting kit. You do need either of the gauge packages, and than a way to mount them. The way you want to mount them is really your choice. And to those wondering if the defi tripple gauge pod fits STi and '04 WRX, the answer to that question is yes. Also on a side note, the tripple gauge pod comes unpainted. Luke RichQY 08-05-2003, 11:21 PM thx a lot luke all clear RichQY 08-05-2003, 11:42 PM another question.. ^_^o do they light up Green at night? aren't there a white and red version? Strictly Driven 08-05-2003, 11:47 PM RichQY - the image you probably are referring too is of the indicator light. The BF series gauges are black faced, and light up white with a red needle. The gauge on that picture is of a different series. Sorry if it mislead you. Luke Strictly Driven 08-07-2003, 06:01 PM As of today we have 3 orders already. We need 7 more to make this group buy happen. Luke kheti 08-07-2003, 07:39 PM Once the group buy closes on the 28th, how long until they ship? I've have seen other Defi group buys drag on for a few months, with the gauges stuck on a slow boat or in customs (Yeah, right!). Strictly Driven 08-07-2003, 08:42 PM Those who participate in this group buy will be reaching their gauges within ONE week of submitting their payment. Two weeks at the most, but we are guranteeing 1 week. Luke 516_WRX_V2 08-07-2003, 11:35 PM luke, please post the people who ordered include me as well! Strictly Driven 08-07-2003, 11:59 PM Here is the list so far: 1.)Allan Klein 2.)Jason Tran 3.)Benedict Chang 4.)Calvin Chan 5.)Spencer Smith 6.)Ethan Halliwell I want to add more names to the list :) These are very good prices on Defi BF Series Gauges. Luke Strictly Driven 08-09-2003, 08:03 AM bump thisisbrock 08-09-2003, 09:01 PM (as a noob) me no understand the metric...like boost egt and oil temp...what is ideal? ( obvioulsy they will differ from time to time..but i think ya get my drift..((lets say upon start up)) Triple S 08-09-2003, 09:10 PM Are those the only packages of gauges? Would it be possible to get oil temp, pressure, and water temp? If so, what is the cost? Strictly Driven 08-09-2003, 09:30 PM thisisbrock - basically Defi created two types of gauges. Metric and Imperial. The Imperial system is the US version, it measures boost using PSI, temps in Fahrenheit while the Metric measures boost in kPa and temps in Celsius. Hope this answered your question if not, explain ur question a little bit more and Ill answer it. If you dont see a package you like on here, you can always create your own package. Triple S - your package totals as follows: Oil Temp $170 Oil Pressure $230 and Water Temp $170. You also need the control unit which is $100. So your total is $670 + $15 for shipping. Leonardo 08-10-2003, 03:05 AM just wish they had a set for the nwe STi (red numbers) Strictly Driven 08-10-2003, 10:14 AM yeah, but still the BF gauges are nice. thisisbrock 08-10-2003, 12:15 PM Strictly Driven - thank you that made it absolutely crystal clear :) SubawuWRX 08-10-2003, 01:54 PM Can the link display work without the gauges? Say I only had a boost gauge. Would the link display still be able to read the other functions that are on it or is the gauges required for the link display to work? Strictly Driven 08-10-2003, 06:47 PM SubawuWRX - if you purchase just the Link display and boost gauge, you still need a control unit. And to answer your question, no other functions will not show up, but you do not have to purchase the gauges. You can purchase sensors themselves and connect them to the control unit. SubawuWRX 08-10-2003, 10:01 PM Thanks for answering my question. So if there's 10 orders then I can order these individually @ group buy pricing? Boost + link display + control unit. Thanks Strictly Driven 08-10-2003, 10:57 PM SubawuWRX - correct wpcalvin7 08-11-2003, 04:40 PM Is the group buy still going on? I am interest on getting the pressure combo and the link display unit and the pod. I just had a question, is the link display unit useful? wpcalvin7 08-11-2003, 04:58 PM Is the group buy still going on? I am interest on getting the pressure combo and the link display unit and the pod. I just had a question, is the link display unit useful? Strictly Driven 08-11-2003, 10:20 PM wpcalvin7 - yes the group buy is still going on. If you are interested send me a email to luke@strictlydriven.com with the items you are interested in. The link display isnt really necessary but what it does is gives you a display of your gauges on a screen. I would say it is useful if you want to use just sensors and not the gauges themselves. Strictly Driven 08-12-2003, 11:40 AM Bump we have 5 orders so far. I know we can do this group buy. :disco: :disco: Strictly Driven 08-12-2003, 03:15 PM ;) 5 orders have been placed so far Strictly Driven 08-13-2003, 08:46 PM ZaphodForty2 - these gauges come in 60 mm only. They are black faced and light up in white only and have red needles. When the ignition is turned off the gauges are blacked out completely. We do have the EGT, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure and Control unit as a package if you would like. If you have any further questions please feel free to contact me at luke@strictlydriven.com Just a reminder you do not have to go with the packages we offer, you can create your own packages and that will be fine.

Strictly Driven 08-14-2003, 01:53 PM ZaphodForty2 - wrote back to your email, also no money is needed upfront. wpcalvin7 08-14-2003, 04:52 PM I wanna sure one more time that these Defi gauges will fit the STI or not, just to make sure. Strictly Driven 08-14-2003, 05:29 PM wpcalvin7 - you have a pm. allanak 08-15-2003, 04:30 PM bump - come on guys, just a few more! I want my gauges :) Strictly Driven 08-16-2003, 08:19 PM :banana: Defi Group Buy Open for Two More Weeks, Hurry! :banana: neednewengine 08-17-2003, 06:40 PM Just a question.. Does Defi make oil Sandwich Adapter? if they don't.. Can we use the greddy one? Strictly Driven 08-18-2003, 10:16 AM neednewengine - yes, Defi does make oil sandwich adaptors. Let me know if you are interested in them. ZaphodForty2 - at the current time we have 5 orders. Sophocles 08-19-2003, 01:04 AM That may answer my question... Do the oil pressure and temp sensors mount in a single sandwich, or does one use the drain plug a la the factory oil temp? Also, does Defi make a boost gauge that goes to higher than 2 bar? Strictly Driven 08-21-2003, 10:17 AM Guys sorry for the delay in answering questions. We had some computer issues. Now to the answers Sophocles - oil pressure and oil temp. sensors mount in a single sandwich type sensor attachment. And yes, Defi does make a gauge that goes up to 34 PSI, it is from the D series gauges and it is also a mechanical gauge. ZaphodForty2 - correct you are number 6, I never added you because you never got a response to my email with your shipping address. So if you could email me your shipping address and whether it is commerical or residential, that will make our status at 6 orders. luke@strictlydriven.com The group buy has 1 week left to reach the minimum 10 orders. I know we can do this. Luke Strictly Driven 08-21-2003, 12:16 PM In order to reach our minimum goal for the group buy, we will be offering individual gauges at group buy pricing.

Luke Strictly Driven 08-26-2003, 11:54 AM Bump, first page, first post has been edited, CHECK IT OUT!!!!

I would say it is useful if you want to use just sensors and not the gauges themselves. Hi Luke, Is this an option for the GB? I would really like the control unit, display, and sensors only. I was told that for whatever reason, the display doesn't show manifold pressure. Is that correct? So that would be sensors for EGT, Oil Pressure, Oil Temp, Water Temp, and Fuel pressure (plus whatever it takes to read differential pressure...I'm assuming it would require manifold pressure sensor). What would the price be for that setup? Thanks, Rob Strictly Driven 08-26-2003, 10:10 PM rob - you have a pm. Strictly Driven 08-29-2003, 11:27 PM To everyone that is on the list, I sent out a email. Thank you for your patience.

YOu can purchase combos or just single gauges and will receive group buy pricing. Luke Eltharion 09-02-2003, 11:44 AM I'd really like this: **Pressure Pack** Boost Gauge EGT Gauge Oil Pressure Gauge Control Unit II $ 760.00 But, I'd only be interested in it, if the Oil and Boost gauges were in PSI. Strictly Driven 09-03-2003, 11:28 PM Eltharion - the boost and oil pressure on this types of gauges is measured in kPa. Luke Strictly Driven 09-05-2003, 06:31 PM This Group Buy is now CLOSED!!!
