Fitting gauges in a dc2

[Mr Windscreen]

Want to fit oil pressure and temp gauge into my jdm dc2. Is there a guide on how to do this or if anyone can help with fitting these.

Better ask on the itr-dc2 website.

What do you actually need help with? Wiring them in or somewhere to put them? I had these guages in my dc2 I just made a plate were my double din stereo was an put them there then fed the wire threw firewall and into sandwich plate at oil filter was pretty easy I'll see if I have a pic .....

Not very good but you get idea

For your oil temp, I drilled (8.8mm) and tapped my sump plug to 1/8 BSPT for my oil temp sensor, then for the oil press sensor, I got removed the oem oil pres sensor and placed my aftermarket one there - as I'm not running standard clocks or ecu.

If you're running a standard ecu/clocks, you can get a extended T peice (LMA) do them in a range of fittings - then you can run that extension with your oem sensor + aftermarket one

Also doing this now myself and had no instructions with my spa design oil temp/sensor and water temp gauges. Where do the wires splice into?

There's an oil pressure sensor below the oil filter iirc that you can tee in to. Then there is a water temp sensor below the distributor or Vtec solenoid that you can tee in to for water temp

I have the sensors sorted. Got a sandwich plate for my oil temp/pressure and an adaptor in the head of the K20 for the water temp sensor.

The wiring off the gauges themselfs I'm wondering about. Think there's a red wire and a black wire on the oil gauge and on the water gauge there is red, black and green/white maybe?
