Prosport gauge group buy?
 

Ok, here is the email I got. Just follow their instructions to get the discount!

we will offer you guys 10% off your entire order. We can do this two ways. 1) each person calls in 727-572-9011 and places their order and mentions the gb club discount. 2) the members can do their own math, go to the website-add the items to your cart to get the total with shipping. Then take 10% off the total and send us the money via paypal and list the items in the notes with the payment.
Actually I do have an easier third solution. any day now we will have our new shopping cart on line and I can give you a code to use that will calculate the discount for you.











Id like to get a couple nice, inexpensive gauges, and im willing a few of you guys want to too. Im emailing them, and if I could get a discount, who would be willing to get some?


The discount will be for ANYTHING they sell. They will email me back with the specifics soon!


Me - green ~ fuel pressure

Jayc - green ~ EGT, oil temp, elec. boost. digital series A/F

Elesjaun - amber ~ elec boost, oil pressure. rad hose adaptor, oil sandwhich plate

Siegel - green? ~ Mechanical? boost, water temp, oil temp

levnubhin - Amber ~ water, oil temp

MD.drift - Amber/white ~ Premium Elec. Oil Pressure Gauge-52mm, EGT, Water Temp, Oil Temp, Electric Fuel Pressure Gauge, Premium Elec. Boost Gauge, Premium Tachometer

SamL01 - Green ~ elec. boost, oil temp, ditigel A/F

Cjernigan - Amber ~ elec. boost, oil temp

See next post ...

I'd be interested in the following

Performance Green/White 52mm
EGT
Oil Temp
Electronic Boost

Digital Series 52mm
Air/Fuel

Then I'll sell all my autometer gauges.

I kept missing out on the group buys for the mazdaspeed forum..

Interested in White/Amber Performance:

Electronic Boost
Electronic Oil Pressure
Electronic Water Temp

Check to see if we can get a discount on the installation accys too, specifically the radiator hose adapter and oil sandwich plate.


Btw, I'll mention that you can not remove the factory water temp sending unit for the gauge cluster and install the prosport sending unit. Granted it looks identical, it won't fit.. I wasted 4 hours of my time and a heatercore trying. The damn thing would start on 2 cylinder heads I have OFF the car, but not ON the car. Oops.

Didn't measure it, but the metric converter fittings might get the sending unit installed in the water galley plug on the drivers side of the block.. I can tell you its not NPT threading, thats all I can say.

All of prosports sending units are 1/8 NPT threads.

Prosport hasent emaild me back yet (holiday), maybe ill try giving them a call tommorow.

Yeah as of most others, however I'm talking specifically about the water galley port on the drivers side of the block by the oil supply... its not NPT.

I'd be in for some cheap gauges. I need:

Boost
Water Temp
Oil Temp

Im intrested in-
water temp
oil temp

siegel, what color, and would you want a mechanical or electric boost gauge?


levnubhin, what color?

Last time someone started a groupbuy almost all interest was tossed when someone said something about poor visibility. Maybe that is only with the smoked lenses though. Has anyone actually seen these gauges and dealt with the glare issues? I need boost and oil temp but i won't sacrifice a few dollars to cheap out on gauges that can't be seen during the day with the top up or down.

I'm in. I need these gauges. But you will be better getting STRI gauges. :) slightly more expensive and they don't have the smoked lens.

Premium Elec. Oil Pressure Gauge-52mm Color: Amber/White
Amber/Super White EGT Gauge
Item # 216BFWAEGT270F

Amber/White Water Temp. 52mm Gauge
Item # 216BFWAWT270F

Amber/White Oil Temp. Electrical 52mm Gauge
Item # 216BFWAOT270-F

Amber/White Electric Fuel Pressure Gauge-52mm
Item # 216BFWAFP270PSI

Premium Elec. Boost Gauge-52mm Color: Amber/White

Premium Tachometer-52mm Amber/White
Item # 216SMTASWL270-PK

http://z1auto.com/submodel.asp?model...cat=enginemgmt for STRI. They are great quality and don't have the smoked lens like the ProSport ones. What do you guys think? And yes, I've talked about the group buy with Z1 and we need to send them a list of what we need and they will work with the prices. Sorry for posting this in a different group buy thread. If it can't be here, just delete it or move.

Id be in for the

Green/White - Electric/Mechanical boost gauge & Oil Temp
Digital - AFR Gauge
+ mounting cups
+ oil sandwich plate


I too am concerned about the smoked lenses, unless the gauge needs constant power for it to be visible and if so how visible in daylight.

I have a set of ProSport gauges in my miata and can see them perfectly fine even wearing my sunglasses on a topdown day which is more than I can say for the radio. I just Want another set for my 6 so I'm in on the group buy.

I looked at the STRI gauges from the other thread, nobody ever posted prices so I google searched it to find 170+$ gauges.

In if they ever produce a real wideband O2 gauge (I think their current one only does NB), which I've heard they are working on. I'd also get a digital boost gauge then as well to match.

I'm going to use it with my LC-1, slightly less resolution since it isn't 0-5V, but good enough for what I'm wanting it for.

:cool:

they are their older ones. I like the look of the new ones better.

Yeah I've had them for a couple years now, along with that Kenwood HU I bought back in 1998 that STILL plays without missing a beat.. and it better for what that SOB cost. lol. Btw Driver, paypaled you for the temp gauge.


Update:

Now I Just need the Performance White/Amber

Oil Pressure
Boost Gauge

I'm interested in the following gauges. Have you contacted them and worked out the group buy?

Super Green 52mm Mechanical Boost Gauge
Item # 216BFWGBO270PSI
Super Green Electrical 52mm Oil Pressure Gauge
Item # 216BFWGOP270PSI
Green Water Temp. Gauge
Item # 216BFWGWT270F
Green Oil Temperature Gauge
Item # 216BFWGOT270F

Id be in for a sandwich plate as well, you can take the AF gauge off for me since its not a WB gauge.

Look at the first post.

Hmm, I can wait for a new shopping cart this way I dont have to hang myself on anyone.

I think you should ask them for more discount and see what they say. Tell them about all the potential business they will receive from the miataturbo forums and wherever else you post the code.

will do

Interested in:
GREEN/WHITE 52mm performance series
Electrical Boost
Electrical Water Temp
Fuel Pressure

I'll wait and see what you work out finally. :)

Im definately 100% in for a:

Super Green Electrical 52mm Oil Pressure Gauge
Item # 216BFWGOP270PSI

Just do what it says on the first post!

I was hoping to get the code as im kinda in Australia and cant call up so easily :). Ill do my own math then, cheers mate. What is their paypal address so I can transfer direct so I can add in my extra shipping and the 10% discount. I cant find it :(

Tell them that we are getting 15% from a competing gauge company, the name starts with an A and ends in utometer. ;)

edit: im just being stupid, something is better then nothing. Good work cardriverx.

You never told me what gauge(s) in particular you were looking for, due to the low pricing, I am not posting it in the thread. PM me for specifics.

Not trying to derail this group buy, but two quick notes:

1) There are visbility problems with these gauges in the day with the top down due to glare and the smoked lens. Again, as long as you know what you are getting no biggie, I just hope people know that. I looked into these gauges and passed for that reason.

2) If you are planning on getting 3+ gauges, you can get 10% off with the discount code (see package deals) at www.fastwrx.com and some of the premium gauges are also on sale so even more savings. Disclaimer: I have not ordered from fastwrx nor do I have an financial interest in the website.

Just an FYI, not trying to be a dick.

It seems some of the gauges there are more expensive than on prosports website?

Eaither way, Whoever wants the gauges please order them!

all my reading into the matter suggests that the only prosport guages that suffered daytime visibility problems were the blue ones. The white/green/amber gauges apparently don't share that problem as they seem to get plenty bright.

New system is up and running, is it possible to get the code now?

I just wanted to drop in here, a few of you guys have emailed us direct & we now have the new shopping cart up and running. your discount code is:

miataturbo

http://prosportgauges.com/index.aspx?dc=miataturbo

enter that code when you checkout in the discount box, it is good for your entire order. The code is good from Dec. 5 -10th.

Let us know if you need any tech advice or questions.

Thanks for your business!

Just saved $32 :)

Pretty cool, glad to see it is working perfect, you guys are the first forum to get the discount code.

unfortunately, there's a problem with the site. it won't let me choose less than a quantity of 40 electric green/white boost gauges. lol.

Sorry, but i only want one. :p

Yeah, but think of how much money you would save ??

all fixed now. :bigtu:

I was the one who originally posted about visibility problems. Loved the look of my white/green/amber boost gauge mounted in the center radio 3 gauge pod in the top radio spot in my NB.

BUT, it was unreadable in the daylight with the top down. It reflects the image of whatever shirt you are wearing.

These might be better for an a-pillar pod install but I have no experience with these gauges in an a-pillar pod.

Frank

It works. I also like the new site layout.

You guys should really consider making some high quality high resolution or "action shot" of your gauges available, maybe even a user submitted section.. Its sometimes difficult to judge the clarity of them by the small images that are there.

20 prem water temps only....:confused:

Yeah, we are working on that, the old site had no restrictions to size, this one max width is 300

The website pictures do not do the gauges any justice, they are crisp & sharp with great color uniformity.

Thanks, and now fixed..

just wondering how long this will last... i want in but dont plan to purchase till lets say the first week of january...

There you go. I imagine if you talk to them when it comes time to purchase they will work something out with you.

Yeah, I'm sure we'll hook you up..

Question about the gauges. Does the map sensor for the gauge needs its own 12v + GND or just Signal + Gnd? I am curious how many more wires I have to run.

actually it depends on which series you are running. The premium Series(peak/warning) gauge has a quick connect wire that goes from the gauge to the sender. that's it.

The Performance series gauge -the sender needs power, ground and signal wire to the gauge.

Hmm, thats what I figured. OOOK. Not a problem.

Anyone have any feedback on these gauges? I want to order 3 but would like to here some opinions. Is the discount still available?
