Hardwyre Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 I am excited! Now if I could only keep my tach needle from bouncing all over the place with the EDIS on my megasquirt. :/ Is there a resistor/pot on the tach that changes the sensitivity? Quote Link to comment

burrito213 Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Started working on your gauge's last night. Wanted to toss this up. could you make a Datsun NL320 or Datsun 1500 like the Wagon and 510 badge? Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted July 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 I'm sure I could. Have a photo of one for reference? Quote Link to comment

erichwaslike Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 im pretty sure it is or someone is stealing your work https://www.facebook.com/AcrylicConceptions Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted July 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I meant I don't think I'm the one that gave you a grill badge.... @ least I dont think so. That FB Page IS us though. Quote Link to comment
burrito213 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 i would like it to look like this in the 510/wagon badge: (but with it saying NL_320) it would be a custom piece.... Goki made me a sticker but i dont want to shape Delrin plastic around the sticker to make it look like a legit badge. what are the $$$ for work? *note/update: lol, doesnt help much but i hope u get the idea...

burrito213 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 here, this is ghetto scetched but it is a better idea: the numbers would look like the 510 emblem so it looks like datsun made it even though it'd be a custom piece. Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted July 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 Did the sticker look good? If so, maybe Josh will share his file with me and I can make it from that for you. I also need you to measure it for me H & L. I'll work on them both over the weekend. Quote Link to comment
burrito213 Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 goki's made the sticker to say datsun nl 320 just like the 1200 emblem in the first pic/example.... i think it may look cool if it said NL320 like the 510 badge. damn, sorry dude, flooding this thread with questions and ideas that i shoulda pm'd you about. :blush: Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 eh, flood away. I'll try to get working on them tomorrow night between print jobs. Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted July 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Messed around this weekend and made a few more...ended up selling most of my emblems I made at the swap meet.... I have a few more ideas that I will process tonight... Quote Link to comment

Shagy Posted September 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Burrito.. did you ever mount that emblem? Quote Link to comment
Phixius Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 Whats the hight and length of the 510 emblem? Could you make one in that font but say 521? Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted September 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 its what ever size it is on the 510's. roughly 3.5" across I think I dont have a font (they didn't use one back then). I could do them like the ones above. Quote Link to comment
Shagy Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Anyone have INSTALLED photos??? or are these just being used as wall art? Quote Link to comment
