Economy gauge to Oil Pressure conversion

[mr2peak]

Who was selling this? I can't find a reference to it anywhere

E30 M3 has factory oil temperature. Are you sure you haven't just seen this?

[mr2peak]

Pretty sure someone was modifying clusters to show oil pressure instead of the economy. Maybe 3-4 years ago?

I would ask Bavarian Restoration:

you are right. there was a college kid a few years ago that made a nifty prototype. i sold him a bunch of cluster parts to make product. to my knowledge, nothing ever became of it.

I remember this being a thing but I don't have a link. I would contact bavrest

Yeah, I knew there was something. Gonna dig through my PM's and see what's there. He was doing some cool conversion. Volt meter, oil pressure, and something else as well I believe. Shouldn't be too hard to accomplish, just need to know the sender resistance, gauge resistance, and make a face-plate.

I know there was a guy who built the boost gauges and hinted at a possible oil temp/pressure gauge, but he went MIA.

Justrack made the econoboost gauge and made me an oil temp version for me.

I was going to take over his gauge designs and manufacture them, but this got shelved as I'm designing other gauges.

Dude. Make these. It should be easy, and I'm sure tons of people will step up and buy them. It's a really, really cool factory looking mod.

I still really want either an oil temp/pressure gauge or boost gauge there. Just depends on if I ball out on an eboost 2 or not.

I agree. I have a boost gauge from justrack and it works great to this day. Aside from turbocharging my car, it is one of the best mods I have done to my car. Very stealth and OEM looking. I'm pretty sure a lot of people would get these.

Bavarian Restoration can do LED oil pressure gauges but can not convert the econo gauge to an oil pressure gauge, I asked.

Sell the research/plans to bavrest then, if you're not going to produce them.

I was no provided design plans, all the research information I have is what he posted publicly in a forum.

There is more to making this work than most people anticipate, and I don't have the time right now to redesign it in order to mass produce them.
