Looks great.. How hard was it to build?

 

Thats hot.

 

thanks for using rule #1...keep it simple

looks nice

 

very clean

 

Thanks, it was not to hard to install cutting the wholes for the gauges was the hardest part.

 

Now that's a dashboard I could eat off of! That is very very nice!!

 

very nice man
it reminds me of when i was a kid and used to go to the track an see all these cars with an aluminum thing in place of the dash....

*runs to the corner and cries*

 

I would like to first off go Hot damn, that is one nice, yet simple, custom project. What I am interested though is in how you did all the wiring and connections for the guages. Just out of curiosity's sake since I couldn't make it out in the picture, what guages do you have in the passenger area?

Second thing on my agenda - I congratulate you for being the first person ever who on their first post has said or done something constructive, metaphorically or literally.

 

Very nice!

What type of car is that in? What will the car be used for?

 

Hot dash

 

thats gorgeous, great work

Can you give us some specs on the car?

loks awesome, i'll buy one!!!

 

Nice and clean, what are you running under the hood though ?

 

I think that looks great.

 

I bet I'm the only one who doesn't like it.
1: It's reflective qualities could be crippling in the bright afternoon sun.
2: See #1

That might be a problem.. I wonder if brushing it or something like that to dull it some would help out..

 

thats a nice dash

 

Did you actually build this dash, or just cut the holes for it? I'm curious how you machined the ridge running along the top and front that seems to give it some added stability.

Also, why the MPH gauge?

That a bead roll. Its sheet aluminum, not machined.

 

That's a very nice dash, I was expecting a white painted dash with accents lol. More details, if you built it yourself very well done and in good taste.

Machined was a poor choice of words. How about "created."

 

GUTTED. nice dashboard i hope u need all of those guages and i also hope u aren't driving that on the street. good luck at the track!

 

The car is a 88 CRX HF, simple bolt ons and nitrous runs 12.8 in the quarter. Not the fastest but it is fun. As for the gauges it has fuel level, tach, speedo, nitrous, fuel pressure, air/fuel, water temp, and oil pressure. The wiring was not to difficult it was pretty simple I was told the speedo would not work with the cable I had but I said it was worth a shot, and it worked and is very accurate. The only thing we had problems with is the fuel level gauge no one makes fuel level gauges for Hondas so it is a little off but we have it set close enough so we at least know it is out of gas. It is a shop car we would have no problem recreating that dash if it was for a crx if anyone is interested let me know.
