Who did you send the gauges to? They look amazing I've been trying to save to get some speed hut ones but this could change my mind if they function as well as they look

His Instagram is michael_gagne
He did the board repair, installed the new faces and calibrated the needles. Price wasn't bad at all.

This is where I got the faces

Looks awesome! Whats the hole in the hood for?

+1 on SEM Chip Guard it is absolutely fantastic, I have had it in my car now for over 5 years and it still looks new! Even scratching some keys/laptop and other objects over it by accident and not a scratch! Great way to revive any plastic parts.

its honestly amazing, been using on multiple projects over the years.

The hole is to clearance my fuel rail line. my hood was damaged anyways so don't mind cutting it up. I plan to do hood vent eventually.

Daaaaaaaang. Car is turning out AWESOME! That last little bit of effort goes such a long way! Congrats man! Post finished pictures! I thought I liked my Speedhut gauges, but those are SOMETHING ELSE!!!!

Thanks homie! it really is the small little things that take a build over the top. I hate to do things twice, so I try and plan everything I can do when I remove around the item I am removing.
Speedhut is nice, I basically went the cheap route and utilized the oem setup just with a modern facelift. what I truly want is a digital dash, but this is cool for now.

I can confirm, after having factory, Speedhut, and now Haltech IC7 in my Skyline, Digital is THE BEEZ KNEEZ!!

Stoked to see final product! Your car is SICK!!

Update 7.13.21

The interior is finished.
Next on the list I think will be to update my seats with black leather.

I like the gauges! Whole interior looks nice! I love the FD interiors, so ahead of their time!

Update 8.17.21

Not much has changed since my major interior overhaul. I have mainly been enjoying the FD and taking it out to local meets etc.
couple pics from events I have been too.

Looks amazing! So clean. All the divisive talk on the news about race and crap, they should go to more car meets. Doesn't matter if you're purple, if your into cars...your family
