2008 STi Performance Gauge Pack - 56k beware

I'm pretty sure most of these kits are the same, however, where I ordered it from required me to submit my VIN so they got the exact one. This leads me to believe there may be more than 2 versons of this kit (one for left hand drive, one for right hand drive).

 

In a nutshell: this is the STi performance tripple gauge pack that fits in the cubby that the USDM (maybe other models) 2008 Legacy has in place of the Navigation. As far as I know, this will NOT fit with the navigation installed, or removed from a navigation equipped vehicle.

 

I tried to take pictures of the majority of the various parts. The kit comes with everything right down to the butyl rubber, cable ties and screws. Everything you need to complete the setup from start to finish MINUS the tools.

 

Note: this kit is made for subaru by Defi.

 

Here's the pictures of what was in my kit.

It may be hard to notice, but each gauge face is pointed towards the driver. (Left Hand Drive)

That install is pretty straight-forward, just take your time. The hardest part is actually fishing the wires through the dash up to where the gauge pack mounts. IIRC mine took 4 - 5 hours start to finish, taking my time.

Awesome. I know people wanna see the sweeps and how they work. I was planning on taking it out for a night cruise to show it off. Too bad I can't have it done for tomorrows meet -n- eat at hooters.

I would like to get this for my car, wish I never bought genome exhaust. Need to get rid of them. Than I can jump in this bandwagon. Would a dealership carry this item.

Actually 1 Bar is equal to 14.503 psi if anyone is interested.

 

Actually... 1 bar = 14.5037738 psi.

Def love mine. Install is def a pain (running the wires through the fire wall sucked) but pretty straight forward. Just give yourself plenty of time.

could you measure it for me?

 

I don't own one, I've just seen the photos. But it obviously fits in the OEM cubby above the dash, which looks for all the world like a standard DIN, to me.
