oil pressure gauge install
I would have thought so, but most guages come with the sender unit and wires included. Do you have the guage already? Never fitted oil guages myself.

Top Gear.
Also the American Top Gear with Tanner Faust is Pretty god, they showed the 1st season on BBC3 but I havent seen anything more if it since last year.

Top Gear.
Yeah it was Scotland :( bit more than 40 miles from London though Sorry but if you are watching Top Gear for consumer advice that went out the window when the 1st version of Top gear was canceled, They had Noel Edmonds, Clarkson and a few of the old Tomorrows World presenters doing it. as iot was a serious consumer show back in the Day. After it came back 10 years ago, the programme had moved away from consumer advice to just 3 blokes messing around in cars. Even if it is staged, set up or planned its still entertaining TV, just don't expext any serious motoring news or reviews. Top Gear is the Soccer AM of Car TV. Just watch it and enjoy it for the silly show it is. Top Gear is still better than 5th Gear any day of the week for entertaiment, for a slightly more consumer oriantaited show 5th gear fills a hole, all the entertainmnt type stuff is just ripped of Top Gear, instead of a Star in a reasonably priced car they put a sportsman in a supercar.

Top Gear.
Did anyone see Top Gear tonight? Apart from the laughably set up taxi race, which was still kind off fun, does anyone know what A or B roads Clarkson was driving the Ferrari F12? He mentioned Letchworth and Hertfordshire which isn't to far from me and the roads and scenery looked mental. Duggie Lampkin is a legend I remember seeing him on Kick Start Jnr and his dad on Kick start back in the day. Everyone sing along ..... Der der der derlldle lerdele der der derder der.

Dodgy brakes, thought brembos would be awesome :(
1st option and cheapest is to change the pads. I have always used EBC pads from ecb direct.com good price quick delivery. Upgrading the brake pads will give you better more positive braking. The only reason to change the discs is if: The steering wheel wobbles under hard or prolonged braking. This means the discs are warped, and you should really replace them. The discs are badly worn and you have a produced lip around the edge of the disc. You could get these skimmed, or replace them. I will have to change my discs as I noticed they have quite a bit of wobble when braking from 100 down to 50 without really braking that hard. I'm going to go for EBC Turbo Grooved discs, with EBC yellow stuff (fast street/track) or more likely the Red Stuff pads (street/fast street) I ran both types of pads on my classics and felt the red stuff were the better option if your not raggin it a lot and just driving normally with a bit of playing about every now and then. If you are going rag it a lot then the yellow stuff would suit better, still work ok as an every day brake pad but you have to ask is it worth the extra £35 for the yellow stuff pads.

Yeah I looked at all the prosport range and a few others, I want to keep it as close to the original clocks as possible. The ones I got in the red a good match.

Looking for a 52mm Gauge pod for 2008 Sti.
Din's not an option as I have a double din sat nav fitted. I think I have found the answer, it's very similar to what I had in my classic. Before I fitted the AVCR.
