Default Water Temp Gauge

Ok ive had this water temp gauge forever but never installed it because i couldnt find anywhere the sensor would fit. Anyone have a clue on where i could tap for it, or is it useless? Also whats normal operating temp for a gsr?

Take out the Stock sensor *its in the head under the distrubotor*... and replace it with the new sensor .... then you new guage will work and the stock honda one will not ....

Using the upper radiator hose, you can fab up a small pipe and weld in a bung that will accept the fitting you have.

heres what I did. I ordered the hasport K-series coolant sensor adapter and used a couple brass fittings( found at a local hardware store) and made the autometer sensor fit inside that hole.
