Default water temp gauge / standard thread sizes

I want to install a water temp gauge on my jrsc gsr .All of my gauges currently are auto meter phantom series gauges /black bezel / white face / red needle and I want my temp gauge to match the rest . The problem I have is the auto meter gauges come with a standard thread sender 1/8 npt 1/2 npt and 3/8 npt . Who makes a sender for a gsr or can I just use my stock sender ?? I feel kinda stupid asking this but I dont know the answer but I do know somebody on here has had a similar issue and an help me out !

the pipe threads in honda engines are bspt (British standard pipe thread). are you putting it in the head wihere the stock sensor is located for the dash gauge? I installed mine in the upper rad hose housing that is on the head. just drill and tap to 1/8 npt thread. i dont have a pic handy rigth now I can post it tommorow if you need it.
