They have been selling mechanical guages for vehicles since Fred Flintstone had a car in bedrock. My dad called them too late lights and ALWAYS added operational guages. I was super pissed when I found out my Trailblazers guages didnt even function. They were just a switch. Essentually a too late light.
Gauges are too late devices too. No one is watching a gauge all the time. There are more complicated fail safes... pressure vs rpm monitor, historical monitors, Most don't implement them though. I think some manufacturers incorporate warning lights that select a high and low pressure sender vs a certain rpm limit. Useful in combo with low oil level gauges to detect sporadic low oil pickup extended during hard cornering .
Wolfy1091 For the rear plug you might not need it. For this kit and the size of the sender probably not but I just wanted it to be easier to get a hold of.
I need this. It looks like Glowshift on the gauge box, but I need the braided line, sending unit and adaptor(s), if any. Can you list part numbers?
Nice install! now come back to Florida and help me do mine!
jlhaynes54 lol drive your happy ass up here and do some rallyx with me

I’m guessing you had a professional do it and you just talked about it
Nope that was all me
Where did you place the gauge?
Can the sensor and sender be purchased separately if I already have the gauge
I believe it can be.
Where did you get the sending unit relocation kit from
Any aftermarket Subaru website will have the full kits
Sti engine bays always look so fuckin crusty and messy
Could the sender fit without the relocation kit

Absolutely useless
Oil gauges are very useful.
Deep6Rally I’m sure he meant your video.. btw, it’s clearly not installed properly.
