mine jumps to 5mph from 0, but after that it goes up fine, doesnt jump mph unless your giving it some

If your throttling it yoiu cant expect 20 year old tecnology to keep up lol

I personally loev them, nice addition to the interior and gives it that spaceship feel lol

I like the look of the clocks themselves but not the way the get crammed into a nova dash, no matter how much of a good job you do they still look like there not meant to be there.

Very true Edd, I always wanted a set so got some fitted but after driving the orange Nova with the 6-dial clocks and seeing the rev counter go past 7k means the MK1 needs needle clocks lol

Digidash doesn't cut it for that factor :) Still cool though and a nice touch

It wasnt a dig at you, the digi dash's are inherently crap. It works as it should.

When you go round a roundabout, you lose 2 bars of fuel, wheras on an analogue gauge, it would probably dip by a fraction of a mm if at all (too slow to react). But it takes forever to recover, leading you inbto thinking you've caned off loads of fuel. Also the temp gauge flickers between 1 & 2 bars rathger than just actually settling in a position on a dial. I could go on.....

Reading a digi-dash takes a few seconds, glancing at dials gives you all the 'rough idea' you need.

Does look good though:

I've got 3 sets and there all the tick ones lol

I've the curved set in my car and a spare tick set in the garage - One in the car is fully functional (including oil pressure) spare set in my garage has white and black plug with decent loom and 4 or 5 spare transducers :)

I've got three sets, one for spares and the other two are are a curve and tick version. Never had any fit in my car due to not wanting to butcher my mk1 dash, they look best in a MK2 IMO anyway.
