Clarkey Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 3 times now - a nasty noise has come from the engine. This is come from not changing gear quick enough .. and so it's going into the redline. Not reaching fuel cut either as no red warning triangle light either. Does anyone know where I can get abit of electronics that is I can configure to warn me (audible beep - would prefer) when I reach a certain RPM ? I don't really have the space for another Gauge as don't want to start ripping out air vents. I've got A Dual Pillar pod .. but that's full already.

Supra_Nish Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Think theres a "pivot shift light" on ebay at the moment for about 30 quid. Just a red light which lights up when u get near to redline. I'm sure theres other options with audible warnings and rows of lights that light up changing colour as you approach redline. Just google shift light i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Isn't the engine revving it's ass off enough of an audible warning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 Hehe! But I think the idea is would like a warning before I get that nasty engine revving it's ass off warning It happened when I was having a play with a Porker off the lights. Not watching my rev-counter ... more concerned about the road etc. Had a look at the shift lights ... they look like microphones!!! A box the size of a Turbo Timer that ties into the ECU that gives off a beep when you reach say 6.5K would be nice. Otherwise - the DEFI VSD Concept would be alternative.

albundy68 Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 it'd be a cool mod if you had the lighting up rev bars on the steering wheel, like in the new rarri's!!! (i will steer this thread back on track!!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkey Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 A small box the size of match box .. that you mount on the steering column that lights LEDs up and beeps. I've been google searching ... but no joy. Traders: ?? I've noticed that blitz power meter & r-vit can do this. But I don't need the the bells & whistles.

dangerous brain Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Couldn't any lectrically person like Emin make a bleepy thing that worked off a set voltage on the rev counter line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
