The egt gauge is thermistor, the liquid and gas is in the stainless probe. The warmer the probe gets it decreases in resistance and colder it increase. The resistance values are scaled as a temperature when they are read bye the gauge.
Should get ya self some rubber lined P clamps to hold that boost sender to the firewall or inner guard a lil more securley than cable ties. Although... cable ties are every 4wders number one must have item lol.
Mate I would highly recommend getting different gauges, I've got multiple mates that have had those SaaS track gauges and all of them have failed within 3 months.
Done a awesome job with the ol girl mate, looks mint! Just a question where did you get the N15 steering wheel from? Been chasing one of them for years for my ol bus
everyone hates the SCA Guages but i honestly didn't have any issues with mine the only issue that i did find is the egt flips out a little when its wet but dries out pretty quick due to heat. but from reading the facebook heros i suspect half of them just had shit wiring or hadn't read the instructions like in regards to the low pressure warning and stuff haha
Honestly bro I get what ya mean with the safety thing I’m 19 brought a Ute for 2k in good faith and rusted out to fuck when I was doing repairs and where my seats bolted on were aswell as my seatbelt
G'day mate out of curiosity did the n15 wheel fit ? I have been considering doing this mod myself but I've seen mixed reports some saying that the gq will only fit up to a n14 and others saying the n15 will fit . Any feedback would be much appreciated as I'm a lanky bugger and it's getting bit tight in the ol girl. Cheers
Well done mate. Hope the seats work for comfort. I have a Toyota Rodeo 2004 and been looking what to do for seats as the drivers side back adjustor snapped...
Hey mate I own a 2006 Holden rodeo ra and I replaced the stock seats with ve commodore seats, I put the chair rails from the stock rodeo seats straight onto the ve seats and they bolted up perfectly
That setup for that water temp sensor is terrible, there are only 2 spots that work well, A, beside the factory under the stat (drill and tap existing to the left of OEM, or get a GU housing that has a spare port). B, drill and tap the oil cooler housing (its the best spot but a prick to do unless your actually replacing the cooler).
Definitely the Nissan wheel not just for oem look but I wouldn’t want to head butt that After market wheel in a crash god forbid that doesn’t happen but anyways coal is the ultimate rig and those plates are minty af yewwww 🇦🇺👌🏼
Gidday mate love the vids u wouldn't be able to tell me where u got the cup holders from that's the one thing I don't like about my gq they have pen holders but not cup holders 😂
Those pyro gauges don’t use fluid in them like you said the hotter the sender gets in the manifold the less resistance it has and the higher the gauge reads the stainless outer coating is just to protect the wiring in the engine bay from heat
Dont want to be that guy.....but that's not how an EGT probe sends signal mate. Just giving you the heads up👍 It runs using a variable voltage signal of sorts
Thanks for the info dude! I just assumed they where like a fluid inside as the thermostats I fit are almost identical feeling! But thanks for sharing this channel is about learning, so all that info is greatly appreciated!
your gunna hate that saas dual gauge so much, i have up after having it replaced under warranty 3 times, i have another one that worked okay but is way out in acuracy
Keep it factory, the fast boi steering wheels look kinda tacky. Have a look at getting yourself a modern free floating head unit with Apple car play and Android auto, absolutely changes the look and feel.
sad those clips where missing but I didn't want this video to go to waste! hope you enjoy :)
Where did you pick up the XR6 seats from and how much mate
The egt gauge is thermistor, the liquid and gas is in the stainless probe. The warmer the probe gets it decreases in resistance and colder it increase. The resistance values are scaled as a temperature when they are read bye the gauge.
Keep the Aftermarket wheel! It suits all the new upgrades you did and the chrome looks great with the gauges 😊👌
I would definitely go the nissan pulsar wheel 🤙
Awesome interior mate! Absolute ripper. Loving ya videos! Love the patrol and if me personally go with the Nissan steering wheel! Yeeee!
Thanks! Will do!
100 % agree on the dash mats. First "mod" I did when I got my Prado
Bump the crusty old wheel and keep the newy - good focal point and like you said, it complements the gauges. Top vid by the way.
Can't get enough of yor vids mate. Always so quick to click on the vids. Keep up the great content
Great episode to watch, video quality is getting good! And pulsar wheel for sure, oem always
I reckon keep that wheel. looks mint with the polished gages !
Both the shirts looking minttttt. Need that Roam Lyfe sticker to finish up the build
Can't go past the old pulsar wheel mate 😂
How long till you drop a canopy on this rig?
Run the pulsa wheel and the rubber boots around the gear shifters will bring it all together
I would run the nissan wheel and get some canvas seat covers to hide the XR6 seats
Looks rad mate!! Cant wait to see it in person 🤙🤙
absolute legend , wish you were based in WA bro 👊🇦🇺
Cool vid bro and you gotta leave that sports wheel on that rig, finished that interior right of 💪💪👌👌
Thanks dude!! I’ve left the sports wheel on, I just like the new feeling to it!
Yea cool, looks mad like that 👌👌
After market wheel suits that rig better I think just with it having a head of aftermarket parts in it now
Should get ya self some rubber lined P clamps to hold that boost sender to the firewall or inner guard a lil more securley than cable ties. Although... cable ties are every 4wders number one must have item lol.
Mate I would highly recommend getting different gauges, I've got multiple mates that have had those SaaS track gauges and all of them have failed within 3 months.
The bolts on the seats were probably hand tight because in some cases its easier to remove the seat from the rails then take out the rails

Mate, looks mad and coals not even finished, keep it up ay, n yer nah I'd go with that minty pulsar wheel haha.

After market wheel for sure suits the interior better I think
Great video once again. I have an x trail leather steering wheel and love it.
gonna have to get the popcorn for this one
The crusty old wheel for sure. The utes looking sick mate
How did you go with the water temp did it work iam thinking to do it now 🤙🏾
keep the wheel it matches the gauges, looks good
epic build mate!! Looks mint!!
Well done mate. Hope the seats work for comfort. I have a Toyota Rodeo 2004 and been looking what to do for seats as the drivers side back adjustor snapped...
Hey mate I own a 2006 Holden rodeo ra and I replaced the stock seats with ve commodore seats, I put the chair rails from the stock rodeo seats straight onto the ve seats and they bolted up perfectly
Legend! I’ll hunt around and see what I can do.
put some anti seize on the probe threads so it wont snap off in the manifold again
i know the pain with no cupholders haha. 60 series cruiser life, although I have 6 cupholders now
Awesome mate lovin your vids and lovin the patrol
She definitely needs a patrol docta air box mate
Whats it like daily driving compare to the Nav? Any update when the rest of the suspension will be coming?
Yeah go the pulsar wheel.
Can you post a link to the wizzy thing for cleaning? Cheers
Is the plastic trim around the gear sticks an original part? My Maverick doesn't have
That setup for that water temp sensor is terrible, there are only 2 spots that work well, A, beside the factory under the stat (drill and tap existing to the left of OEM, or get a GU housing that has a spare port).

Love the Nissan steering wheel I’ll definitely be putting the same one in my gq now haha
Do you know if they bolt straight to like factory?
Happy you went for the pulsar wheel, and if you chance your mind I’ll buy it off you lol
I love the colour of Coal 🤘
Definitely the Nissan wheel not just for oem look but I wouldn’t want to head butt that After market wheel in a crash god forbid that doesn’t happen but anyways coal is the ultimate rig and those plates are minty af yewwww 🇦🇺👌🏼
Gidday mate love the vids u wouldn't be able to tell me where u got the cup holders from that's the one thing I don't like about my gq they have pen holders but not cup holders 😂
Patrolapart
I would go the Nissan wheel but I like to keep things looking factory so it all blends
Then you put some self tappers in it and now we have a cup holder 👌
the wheel in the video looks tuffer than the pulser wheel.
Those pyro gauges don’t use fluid in them like you said the hotter the sender gets in the manifold the less resistance it has and the higher the gauge reads the stainless outer coating is just to protect the wiring in the engine bay from heat
Won't you get an air bubble underneath the water sensor?
Pulsar wheel for sure
What turbo kit do you have in there
Do you not have to get vehicle cert for changing seats?
Hey mate I know heaps about cars, and I'd definitely recommend the AT wheel you'll be a way better driver.
what size fittings did you use for the coolant temp gauge
What phone mount are you running?
Pulsar wheel for the win
I think the pulsar wheel looks better tbh.
Also you need a MINT sticker 😂
You need a winch bar if your by yourself and get stuck then you can’t get out
Nissan wheel old school looking good great vid
what is that contraption on the end of your air line you used to clean off your seats?
Dont want to be that guy.....but that's not how an EGT probe sends signal mate. Just giving you the heads up👍
It runs using a variable voltage signal of sorts
Thanks for the info dude! I just assumed they where like a fluid inside as the thermostats I fit are almost identical feeling! But thanks for sharing this channel is about learning, so all that info is greatly appreciated!
I start to make one by following your video，but it's really hard for me😂，I'm doing quite slow,I wish I coule finish it before Christmas
What was the actual brass fitting for the water temp gauge?
Do you have to do any mod plating for the new seats?
Definitely the hectic Pulsar steering wheel
your gunna hate that saas dual gauge so much, i have up after having it replaced under warranty 3 times, i have another one that worked okay but is way out in acuracy
i found a pair of xr seats just laying around in my shed didn't know they were worth that much geez
If you by second hand what do you expect with the seats?
Surely you do a suspension installation vid
Love it already and 3 seconds in
Great vid mate, I reckon you should keep that after market steering wheel on there, looks the goods
Did you sell ur NP300 . And also great video
Pretty sure you just drove past me I was the shell servo if not there is one getting around similar
Keep it factory, the fast boi steering wheels look kinda tacky. Have a look at getting yourself a modern free floating head unit with Apple car play and Android auto, absolutely changes the look and feel.
Where'd u get the seats bro? I need one in exactly that black grey combo! Run the Nissan pulsar wheel!
Keep your eyes out for old taxi xr6s getting wrecked can usually pick the seats up and because taxis keep their car clean the seats are in good Nick.
im a fat fuck but i find my GQ seats extremely comfortable and I drove that thing for 4 hours on 1 trip and not a problem, I coulda kept going
Looks mint
💯 the pulsar wheel is heaps better bra
hey love your video's. where can you tis dash mat im from Belgium en cant find where i can buy one
What car is it and are they expensive

Too late now, but I like the Pulsar wheel better, as it looks factory original
Go the factory look mate 🤙🏼
Pulsar wheel for sure, that other one looks too much like race car 🤪
Love the content bro
