i'm going to have to see them in the flash..that photo looks good but its hard to see it too well.

inasnt - you have them in yours? you coming on sat-day dyno thingabob? might have a look...

My dials are fine at night, but still, they could have cooler bits.

I've got an idea for something to try maybe way better for the lighting (no, not neon) but i'd have to pull it all apart first... hmmm!

sorry dragon18

i would help you but ur too fare away.

im waiting for an impul bodykit from j-spec in melbourn and need to get it to sydney, so maybe if you want to help me out i will help you out................

dragon ill help you

just did mine yesterday and it seems to be fine, what i did was pushed each needle clockwise to its 'maximum' and anti-clockwise to its other 'max' and then marked the two spots, then twisted it anti-clockwise past its maximum as i pulled up and the needle popped off, then i just stuck the EL face over the factory onewith double sided tape (not the thick stuff, regular sticky tape thin) and then put the needle back at the maximum it was at when i twisted it off, then i checked that the needle would move between these maximums and if it didnt i just adjusted it by turning it the amount required past the maxium until it was moving between the maximuums perfect, and with that theory everyrthing seems to be how it was, havent 100% checked the speedo yet but its definitely not way out as i went for a drive this morning and it felt like i nwas doing the speed on the speedo, are there any places who can cheaply just test to make sure calibration is ok ? coz if its a cheap cost to ensure it is i'd like to just get it checkd but im pretty sure its all sweet, looks ****ing awesome too :(

u r meant to take the black faced gauges off and replace em with the el ones!! Since u already took the needles off, its a piece of piss to take the black gauges off!

Pred

Yep i will there on sat, but u wont be able to see the backlight, in the sunlight.

nah its easier to double sided tape them, coz i left the regular light bulbs in the dahsh and with just the EL on it the light shines through and the blue doesnt look as good as u neeed the factory bulbs to light the odometer etc :D

u r also meant to take out most of the normal bulbs except the the warning lights! U cant see the odometer when the el light is on, but hey who cares doesent worry me! :(

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
