Anyone fitted the display out of an elise in there car or can this not be done?

Posted

No cos the revcounter doesn't go up high enough! :D

Posted

Why not - it goes to 8000rpm?!?

Seriously, I'm thinking of building a Westie, and would love

to put the Stack display in the dash. From a proportion thing, it should fit ok. Has no-one tried this?

Stack dashes are obtainable from Demon Tweeks in various forms and there's no reason you can't fit one of these - why does it have to be an Elise one?  :t-up:

Cos they've got everything you want in a nice compact little unit, rather than have lots of indicator lights, water temp guages etc spread across the dashboard...

I've seen Stack's website, and they do a variety of speedos, rev counters etc, but don't sell the Elise unit off the shelf.

The car in your avatar does not have a Stack made dash. It's from another supplier.

If you want an "all in one" Stack unit then check out :

ST700; and

ST8130

Both of these can be had for less money than Stack are asking - if you go and have a look through recent threads, or do a search, you'll find some information about Stack dashes and where to get them cheaper.

ST8130 Hmmmm! Nice!

Was thinking of making a new wiring loom for the car but this STACK instrument comes with sensors, loom everything. Old gauges very heavy too.

I'll get me cheque book!!!!! :)

Nick,

You have access to most of the special bits for the Westy in the US - Willwoods, Hawk, STACK etc. How do the prices compare over there? Fancy a new job as a smuggler? :devil:

Windy, drop me a PM if you're after specific stuff.  Brake pads are cheap as chips, calipers are also cheaper.  Stack stuff is no cheaper by the look of it though.  But I got my Stack 8130 from a chap in Worthing (Keith Connolley) a fair bit less than Stack want.  It's new kit, he just splits the dealer mark up down the middle with the customer.

Gee - mum's the word  ;)

The Elise dash is CANBUS is it not ?

Err, Windy. I hate to say it but the car in my avatar - ie my Elise does have a Stack display in it (I checked this morning). You are correct in that they have changed suppliers though recently for the dash. To whom exactly I don't know.

Nick,

The deal is done! :cool: He He!!!! UK source!!! How much are the Hawk pads over there then?

Windy

I reckon a set of Hawk pads will work out around the $50 mark.  Haven't specifically checked the ones for Wilwood calipers but it's pretty much dollars for pounds over here.
