Anyone got their hands on these yet?

 

Those are pretty nice even for Autometer.........all the same features as the Defi BF's and you can change the illumination.http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...&Ntt=autometer


but for the price I would rather buy a set of Defi Ambers

 

yeh they are nice but a single gauge priced at @$250.........best to pay a little more and get the defi

 

for me... the autometer are more appealing because they're 52mm and in english units...

 

They are pretty nice gauges...

 

Then get the Defi d series. They don't play back or change colors but I would be worried to have autometers because they normally aren't very accurate.

That's a Fallacy.

 

How so.

Defi gauges have been know for being top of the line gauges that are very accurate. I have had autometers in some previous vehicles(in them when purchased) and they were inaccurate. I don't know if the nexus gauges are better quality. Or what but for that price I would rather go for something i know works then something that might work.

Autometer gauges are actually very good.

People have a misconception when they sit about 1-2psi off when the gauge is turned off, that they must be reading 1-2 psi off when the gauge is up and running, not true.

I tried searching for proof of this that I actually read last night but couldnt find anything.

They RULE the domestic market and have a very favorable market share compared to other gauge comapnies, this should tell you something.

When I buy my new car (EVO/SRT) I will be using Autometer gauges for multiple reasons.
1) Inexpensive
2) They work
3) They look decent
4) I live about 25 mins away from autometer, so if I have a problem, I can take it directly to them

I had an autometer fuel pressure gauge and it was off 10 psi that is not acceptiable to me. I was just stating for the price of a nexus you can get defi BF series. For the price of a cheaper verison like a carbon or something you can get the d-series. I am just if i had a choice between defis and autometers it would be hands down defi. And after actually seeing the guage be off by that much I would never let an autometer touch my vehicle.

I have stated everything that i need to state. This is just my opinion I don't expect you guys to accept it as a fact. So I am done with this thread

there must be some manner of testing that could be done... why not hook up a defi and an autometer in the same car and see what gauge reads what... instead of all the heresay...

 

that sounds like a good diea you spring the money and ill put thyem in my car. i was telling ym boss about the defi gauges and he told me to get the new autometer ones, and i was like bro autometer is friggin gay, he goes you gotta see em they are just like the defis just as nice, after looking at them i do think they are just as nice as the defi with an exeption of the polished bezle and the fact that they still say autometer on them lol im still leaning twords defi

 

Inaccurate readings can also be caused by a bad installation, Autometer is a very well known and reputable company in both the Domestic and Import community. I myself have had great success with their products, no complains from me.
