G-TECH/Pro Performance Meter SS

Up for sale is my Gtech, it is less than 3 weeks old though I did install it (using my discreet 12v DIY) I’ve not gotten to use it, as I’ll explain. Here is the link to the website where you will find all of it’s features http://www.gtechpro.com/ss.html I’ll take $160 firm and ship it to you in one of those flat rate priority boxes within the Continental US. I have everything including the unit, original box, mounting bracket, 12v power cord and the decals.

The issue I have with it is I bought it primarily to function as my tach with the added fun of using it to monitor performance on this and any other future car I bought. However it will not work as intended on the Liftbacks. It does see RPM’s without syncing but it is clearly off. To use it accurately as a tach you are supposed to go into set-up of the Gtech then rev and hold RPM’S to the designated levels (2k then 4k) for a few seconds then press the menu buttons when the two match to sync the Gtech with your stock tachometer (aftermarket would work too.) In order to sync one needs a tach and well we all know the US spec LB’s doesn’t have one.

Solutions would be to plug it into a manual sedan from a dealership sync up and then put it back in my LB, but when I make a few mods it is going to start to become inaccurate. Furthermore I could invest in a laser rpm gauge, or something like Scangauge II which would read the rpms to sync the unit whenever needed but I’m not interested in spending more money for a tach. That leaves me with selling and buying a normal tach. If you have any questions let me know.

I went to usps.com then clicked on international rates and fees. In the chart I selected Thailand, package and 2 pounds which is a rough estimate from my bathroom scale. Here are the options it came up with:

If you decided to purchase I will post a picture of the receipt and charge exact amount minus the $8.05 it would have cost me to ship it in a flat rate box domestically.
