Hey

I bought a set of these gauges off Xyberautos but have only realised the pod I have is 60mm so my set is for sale.

Boost - BAR
Temp
Pressure

All boxed as new, never fitted. Only opened to check contents.

Hey guys is this group buy still going on as I am interested in the green Prosport Steppers to match my standard clocks but can't seem to find them on the xyber auto's website have they stopped doing them?? :wonder:

Cheers

gojonnyjo 29 October 2008 11:33 AM

Same here, interested also in the green lit

rbaz 29 October 2008 11:50 AM

The group buy was for the stepper gauges not the (cheaper) green ones. I would think the best person to ask/email would be Xyber direct.

Midnight Runner 29 October 2008 11:57 AM

Ah right, I thought that they were the same!! Cheers rbaz :D

By cheaper do you mean sh1tter?! :o

Yeah they are not stepper gauges so not as good they are just normal electrical ones I think :wonder:
Drop Danny an email he will explain the difference and give you a price :thumb:

Awaiting reply :thumb: if they are no good then I'll settle for the white I s'pose! Trouble with me is I've got to have everything matching, but don't want to get inferior gauges. Heard some of the cheapo one are no good in the day....and defi's are discontinued....not to mention £££ :(

Abbylad 21 December 2008 07:26 PM

anyone wanting a smoked prosport stepper volt gauge i have a brand new unopened one for sale for £30 delivered. Got sick of replacing oil pressure gauge and then sold car before replacement turned up

Bockett 27 December 2008 06:54 PM

Is this GB still going on?

Danny can still do these for us if anybody has missed out or wants another set with 10% off
They are £89.91 for the set delivered. Prices are a little higher than in the original group buy but still excellent gauges for the money think everybody was impressed with them from the group buy.

Has anyone found that the first connected gauge lights up red when the battery is reconnected after being disconnected? I have two sets and both light the first gauge up, not the other two that are in series.

The reason this concerns me is that i have just replaced the battery because it was not holding the charge anymore, the new battery has also totally died in a month and was reading 1.99v making me think the gauges might be causing some sort of fault as it as happened since fitting them.

phil739 28 December 2008 10:02 PM

good point as my battery only last about aday and ahalf

my gauges are connected to the radio constant live

just a thought maybe could put a fused switch on the perm live so could turn them on and off that way ????

rbaz 28 December 2008 10:54 PM

Yes I noticed my battery didn’t last long was 2-3 weeks not a day but I just thought it was the alarm or tracker causing it. ( I didn't use the car much)
I asked Danny and he said he hadn't heard of any problems.
Maybe disconnect the permanent live (if you can handle the buzzing :rolleyes: ) see if it is the cause.
I can’t try it as I have now sold the car :(
If I used it regular no problem :thumb:

Flib 28 December 2008 11:24 PM

mine are wired into the radio harness to and i`ve left the car for 3-4 days and noticed no drain on the battery

wildfire 29 December 2008 09:34 AM

Rbaz - sorry to here you had to sell your scoob!

The car is not used daily and in the case where the new battery died it was probably over two weeks without touching it. I have put another new battery on the car and in each case i noticed that the first gauge lit up which made me think maybe there is some fault with the gauges.

Mine was exactly the same first gauge stayed on.
i didnt have to sell the car but I got a fantastic price for it in France and with the £ been so bad I can get a bug STI or even a Blob if i can find a good deal for the same money :) so I let it go.

AndyMoody 31 December 2008 03:26 PM

Can someone please remind me how to turn off the beeping noise on start up? Disconnected power today which reset them and now they have the annoying warning noise back.

Thanks,

Andy.

sparky d 31 December 2008 03:35 PM

Turn off the ignition then hold in the button on the gauge and turn your ignition back on again whilst keeping the button pressed in , repeat this for each gauge , that should be it fella :thumb:



Dave

AndyMoody 31 December 2008 03:38 PM

Right, I was doing it once ignition was on. Will try in a minute to silence them. The instructions are in the loft somewhere and poor translation.

Cheers,

Andy.

sparky d 31 December 2008 03:39 PM

No worries mate , its bloody annoying to say the least :lol1: ,

I quite fancy a set of these, but the battery drain issue has put me right off the idea, as the car sits for 2 weeks every month while I'm offshore

Has anyone found out why they are doing this?

Mine doesnt seem to do it mate , i only drive it twice maybe 3 times a month and never had an issue , but i know a friend of mine has put a switch in to break the permenant live , you lose the memory but thats not really a drastic problem

Maxxed_Ross 31 December 2008 03:58 PM

what does the memory do apart from keeping the beeping noise turned off?

sparky d 31 December 2008 04:37 PM

it remembers your peak readings i.e your maximum boost reached etc , also your personalised warning settings , but hey if you know that a real low oil pressure reading = bad news and so on then you dont really need them ,

That's good to hear

I can source a 52mm gauge holder to replace the OEM clock on my Bug but i hear some of the guys saying avoid the Oil sandwich plate so where can i get the double adaptor as the Gaugeplace website is down?
