what makes greddy gauges or all these other JDM gauges better?
I know autometer has been around for at least 20 years, i dont think greddy has been around that long.
I know a guy on here that had an old set of autometer gauges. he didnt want to buy a new set, so he sent them back to autometer, where they repainted and fixed them for him....THATS BAD ASS! i dont know any other company that will do that!
Is there something about them that makes those others better?
Autometers work good, but some of the quality just isn't there. Anything from fit and finish to the ease of installation and the quality of the parts that you get with the gauge.
Granted, I don't have alot of experience with gauges, but that is what I noticed when I was looking to replace my crappy factory gauge.
I would say that there are just some better over all quality gauges out there. Maybe you should calm down and not try to be the first one out of the gates to make something a US vs. Import debate.
