take pics of the engine bay and i can tell you if it's been gutted or not... but i'm pretty sure you'd be able to tell if it was or not, the power gain would be quite significant up in the higher rpm's...

oh, and when you find the a pillar with 3 guage pod let me know and i'll get one too...

^there was a place called like apiller.com or something, but you could get em' in 2 or 3 pod I believe. Lemme do some research and I'll get back to ya.

Here ya go DZ;

and the site URL is http://www.gaugepods.com/nissan.html

They cost 45 bucks, or in my case 52, becuase I want the OEM black look.

Here's two engine bay pics.

IS this infact an aftermarket greddy POV?? or what??? I have no clue if it is or isn't, but someone told me that it was.

most greddy parts have the name "greddy" on them, so that doesnt look like it would be greddy. is that coolant in your intake?

DeleriousZ · #21 02-13-2006, 07:17 PM

yeah it looks like someone opened the rad cap while it was still hot or something exploded and sent coolant everywhere...

yeah that doesn't look like a greddy product to me... again if it was me i'd just plug up the pov hole.. now that you've got both the bov and the stock wastegate you should be alright if one of them fails...

oh, and that plenum isn't gutted, just missing the vg plate...

xXxRocker5150 · #22 02-13-2006, 08:51 PM

^Yea I figured out what happened; the seal on the cap was f'd up, and the cap got hot and either busted or flew off or something, but it sent coolant everywhere. I'm assuming they took off the logo, because it had coolant all over it.

I've seen pics of aftermarket POV's and they look like the one I have, and as far as I know, greddy's the only company that made aftermarket ones, so that's why I asumed that it was greddy.

So DZ, are ya gonna' buy a 3 gauge pod now

???

DeleriousZ · #23 02-13-2006, 08:56 PM

yeah i'll look into it... just gotta figure out what gauges i'm going to put in there when i get it...

I'm gonna get boost, a/f, and I'm not sure about the last one.

oil temp would be handy for any modified turbocharged car...

i was looking at an intake temp but the prices for those are extremely high.

xXxRocker5150 · #26 02-15-2006, 02:29 PM

Hmmmmm, IDK if the stock one is a POS, but the stock z31T's have an oil temp and oil pressure gauge
