Defi Racer Gauges and WRXtra Pod - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

DUB · 2010-09-11, 10:21 AM

I've had great luck selling stuff on this forum. So, anybody want my gauges?

Please feel free to make me reasonable offers.

Defi White Racer Gauges

EGT, Pressure, Temperature, 52mm, US measurements, does not require the Defi-Link Control Unit.

Skip the autometer/prosport junk, buy Defi and buy the best. Remember, an inaccurate gauge is worse than no gauge at all.

Click here and here to read about the features and benefits of the racer gauge series.

All three are in near perfect condition, they come with every thing originally included (gauge, bezel, meter cup, meter cup holder, wiring, sending unit) and ship in original packaging.

EGT - $180

Pressure (oil or fuel) - $180

Temperature (oil or water) - $100

I also have a couple installation fittings/tools for sale. They aren't available separately but I'll throw them in if you want.

Subaru Oil Galley Plug w/ 1/8PT Threads - Use this to take a oil temp/pressure reading from the galley located under the intercooler.

$5

If you are installing the EGT gauge yourself, you'll need to make a 1/8" BSPT hole in the exhaust manifold. This is the drill bit and tap you will need. These are really hard to find and expensive. Bit - Q (.3320") and Tap - 1/8"-28 BSPT

$15 for both

WRXtra Gauge Pod for 2 1/16" (52mm) Gauges

This piece starts life as an OE Subaru Gauge Pod. Then, a custom bracket is fabricated and the plastic is trimmed to allow it to hold 52mm gauges. This allows you to get the stock look of the factory gauge option, but use any gauges you want.

I loved the clean, factory look of this pod.

Here are the dimensions, to make sure your gauges will fit. And here are the installation instructions. (Sale comes with all hardware)

$100

Very tempting.... you aren't hiding a boost gauge from us are you?

DUB · 2010-09-12, 11:02 AM

Nope; the car had the factory boost gauge (which I always wanted to replace with a Defi Racer but never got around to it).

If you are interested in everything I'm sure we can work out some sort of package deal. Let me know.

JoeWRX · 2010-09-12, 04:23 PM

Right on, I've emailed a few places to see if they have a boost gauge in stock, I'd be interested in everything except the EGT gauge. I'll send you a PM hopefully tomorrow if I find one.

Did you check with all these guys? NASIOC > NASIOC Classifieds > Vendor 'For Sale' Classifieds > Gauges & Electronics > Search Results Key Word "racer"

JoeWRX · 2010-09-12, 04:42 PM

I've done rallysportdirect, import image, and subaruwrxparts. Import image doesn't have any and the other two haven't got back to me yet. I haven't even heard of some of those other places I'll be sure to ask them, thanks for that link.

DUB · 2010-09-12, 04:43 PM

When I buy parts new, I usually PM vendors on NASIOC and ask for their best "member" price, sometimes they will come down a good bit over their websites list price.

Try JSC Speed too, thats where I originally bought the gauges.

JoeWRX · 2010-09-12, 04:53 PM

Yea I just sent out like 6 more messages haha, should hopefully have an answer tomorrow morning

ScottyS · 2010-09-13, 01:14 PM

I'm interested in the EGT gage, but the replacement cost of Defi probes is a little scary.

DUB · 2010-09-13, 01:22 PM

It's available!

You're right about that EGT sensor price, yikes. Luckily there is nothing wrong with the one that comes with the gauge.

GusGus91 · 2010-09-13, 05:04 PM

Joe, it will be easier to just call places. They will get back to you way sooner. Call tomorrow morning. or I can call for you if you'd like.

DUB · 2010-09-17, 11:53 AM

Pod, press, temp, galley plug SOLD! Thanks, Joe.
