Title: Another digital speedo question
Post by: ISTLCRUZ on April 04, 2014, 06:02:41 AM
My 87 LX has the digital dash and I am curious how accurate the gauges are? Im thinking of adding some after market gauges soon. What are some of you guys running(Auto meter, Glowshift etc)...Thanks.

They are better than idiot lights, but Im not sure by how much.

Most are idiot lights. oil pressure always reads the same. a bad irv or really low voltage causes a fluctuation. the emissions computer is really good, so is the speed/odometer and you can do the w2 mod to read well over 100mph. the temp guage will slowly heat up. rpm's are way off.
