Why can't I attach images to posts anymore?

Seriously.

I do what I can, but I'm limited to the Tech sections.

I've reported spammers (spamming other sections outside of Tech sections), but nothing gets done anymore.
So, owner / admin / supermods are all basically all gone.

^That's what I figured. I emailed the webmaster at least 2x about this with zero response, using the "contact webmaster" link. Funny thing is my picture posting problem may be tied to just my account - I've seen a few recent (i.e., last few months) postings by others who were able to post pictures. WTF?

My Haltech E8 is getting tired, and I'm looking to jump to an Elite 550...

If the Elite 550 has CAN bus, there are a number of CAN bus gauges on the market now that can basically display whatever your ECU spits out on the bus, so 1 or 2 gauges gives you everything you could want. I'm using one of these BTI gauges with my AEM Infinity: http://www.btigauges.com/aem-infinity.html


Here's another vendor's product that appears to offer more flexibility in programming exactly what you want to display. Kind of makes me wish I knew about them before buying the BTI gauge!

I emailed and got a response but I have no idea how to operate a forum....

Also I used PLX Devices to use a single gauge. They where nice

I'm too old-school to deal with CANbus stuff.

I'm also old-school that I prefer analog (display) gauges...
I have a couple of old SPI Motorsport gauges that have really nice backlighting, but I've lost the pressure sensor for the fuel pressure gauge, and I can't find a replacement.
I've been eyeing the Stack stuff for years but never had the money to go after them - each gauge is $200+.
I also was trying to cut down the number of gauge installed, cause it's just mentally fatiguing to scan all of them!
Current have:
* 60mm peak / hold GReddy boost gauge
* 60mm peak / hold GReddy EGT gauge
* J&S dual knock + narrow-band O2 display
* 52mm SPI fuel pressure gauge (not working, no sensor)
* 52mm SPI water temp gauge
* 2-1/8" VDO oil temp gauge
* 2-1/8" VDO oil pressure gauge
* 46mm HKS voltmeter - for system voltage
* 46mm HKS voltmeter - for fuel pump voltage

I'm going to consolidate the oil temp and water temp gauge by running a DPDT switch to switch between the sensors and running a single gauge.

You get the idea.

I too didn't want a dash full of gauges so I did the same thing.

I just got rid of the whole thing because I don't want a bunch if gauges..





Yeah that's why....
