no progress on the oil pressure gauge. I still need some way to connect it to the block. I called mcmaster.com, and told them what everyone on the website reccommended, which was a 10mm bspt to 1/4 npt adapter, and they said that doesnt exist. Im truly confused. many mx-3'ers have this mod, and i ca...

I have searched mcmaster.com and called them and they say that this part does not exist. Where can I find this part? Also, Since the sending unit is 1/8 npt male, putting an adapter from 10mm bspt male to 1/4 npt female would not work. Unless I put the adapter that came with the oil pressure sender,...

ok guys. this is an emergency. I have the gauge installed in the pod, and the lighting works on it. it looks amazing, and its so close to being done. All i need to do is find a way to screw the sender into where the stock sender was. Earlier many people said that I need a 10 mm bspt male fitting to ...

the blue wire was easy to spot for the o2 sensor. For the oil pressure gauge, i think i found the wire you were talking about. The head of the connector of the wire to the car is black, and when taken off, the piece from the car is a small rectangle with a hole in it. I was not sure if this was the ...

that sounds really easy, and yes, i know that its very easy to remove the cluster. was wondering, if your gauges in your pod are back lit, and you use the leads from the cluster, are the lights in the gauges always lit? cause if not, then that sounds like a great idea. secondarily, where is your con...

Im sure this topic has been posted before, so I apologize in advance. Im sure that anyone with a teal mx-3 knows that in 1992 the interior cloth in the doors looks like s---, and many people have changed it. What a great idea. I tried removing the fabric and replacing it with other materials, but im...

If anyone has any suggestions on what is the best paint, and the best method to do so, please post. I was planning on running to advance auto parts, or some store and getting spray paint or s...
