I was thinking the same thing, some electronics would be needed I guess.

The buzzer on my RX-7 made an outstanding shift alert - much better than a light, IMO.

Here is another one, the A/F volt gauge that replaces the clock.

Its also $195 with your core. It includes the brain box for the A/F gauge, you need a O2 sensor though

It will be on our website this weekend

The A/F gauge says ot reads 0-1 volt from most o2 sensors, or the one listed here:

Could you make one that is AF/Fuel/Temp/Pressure in green for the early SWB cars?

that is a really nice looking gauge.

but is there any way to make it more accurate?

re the voltmeter guage: i put in a sunpro analog voltmeter, but you can't really tell the precise reading because of the sparse markings. i eventually went digital. for example if you want to know if you're at 12.5 volts, it is going to be very hard to tell with this type of gauge.

re the afr guage: my wideband o2 gauge has an analog face but uses the almost the whole face for the markings so you can pretty much tell the difference between 13.1 or 13.5 afr (very useful for tuning or adjusting the mixture). this one only looks like you could tell if you were really off. plus, is it made to hook up (or convert) a wideband signal at all?

i guess some reading is better than none at all and it does look very oem. if one just wanted a very general idea and not real specific info, then these guages do look like one of the best choices to match the oem gauges.

re. knowing the dc volt level - I don't see why one needs to know this to a high accuracy. If you can see that the volts are e.g. 14 or where ever your regulation puts you, isn't that good enough? If you are driving and the volts drops to 12 or below... then you may want to check the alt. belt.

I do follow your comments on having a wide band afr reading with a large swing analog gauge or digital.... but all of that is more expensive compared to the presented simple design.

Any chance for a digital volt meter? The ones with a needle just are not as sensative for me. Worked with digital VOM's too long I guess!

I think you guys are missing the point. These are not meant to be aircraft gauges. These are meant to do a good job and fit in well. Digital would be pointless in these because you might as well just buy some digital ones. Accuracy seems to be fine, you need 12V with the car off and 14V with it running, that will be easy to tell. I don't even run a volt gauge. Also you need 14.7 A/F and the gauge tells you that.
