Digital Dash...

my starion has a digital dash... is this good or wank factor? ive noticed its not really as nice looking as the gauge style clusters? also it lags...

Its also annoying when the sun shines on them, or those times when you find the steering wheel completely blocks the rev counter :glare:

Its fun because its different, but I'd prefer normal gauges myself.

agree with the above.. but I kind of like it, it's more retro-futreistic if that makes any sense.

semi digital dash is it bit meh, drove a 929 with one it was fucking horrible (matched the rest of the car i guess, biggest shitbox i have ever drove)

Go analogue in my opinion, as spiders said the sun hitting it can be shit and it's got a bit of wank factor going for it.

I own 2 JA's, 1 with analogue, 1 with digital, and I must say that I prefer the analogue dash much more. It's easier to read in direct sunlight, and analogue gauges always look heaps better, just like analogue watches...

actually yes, its one of the few things that 'bolts right on'. Same wiring connectors, same speedo connector etc

I am supposed to get back my car tomorrow, if I do I'll use my fancy-pants-3G cellphone to make videos of my digital console, and will attempt to put them on here. If I fail to do so, you'll at least get pretty pictures.

I'd show the VELNAS too, but its currently unplugged, and likely to remain that way.

Brian - dont u have a monster tacho too?

possible defect but when james/disturbed had the car he never had a problem. speedo lag may be annoying

but it is different.
