The one I purchased has faulty oil and temp gauges so now I am looking at getting a 3rd and final one. Has anyone got one IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER they can sell me?

Please PM me.

Thanks!!

Todd

You're so high maintenance aren't you Todd. Why does everything have to be in WORKING order?

I have a few odometers and a few canon exhausts that you can go check out - drop me an SMS and we'll tee it up.

cheers,

i gess $50 if thats what your offering. im not 100% sure if i will sell it. im waiting on a nismo 260km/h dash and i would like to check that that all works first as it seems hard to find one with everything working.

what pressure does your seem to show on average? mine shows just below 4.

After putting this cluster in it shows 4 on startup, then drops just below... at times it is just above 2 (still normal) but then it will drop down to 0 for a few mins and pop back up (it won't do it all the time, just some of the time!). It drives and runs perfectly no matter what the gauge says and it has only happend since I installed the cluster.

I figured the first step would be to confirm what is happening with the oil pressure before looking for another problem (oil pressure sensor, oil pump) but it would be just as expensive (if not more) for me to buy and install an aftermarket gauge or to take it to a mechanic as it would be for me to replace it with one that is working for sure!

Worst case it keeps happening, I can flog off the other cluster and find the true issue or if it is the cluster (most likely) then it has only cost me $50 odd dollars!

Any advice? Or does everyone agree?

Todd ever single 32 i have had i have found that the standard cluster's have never been that flash for the oil pressure or temp gauges.

If your worried about it i would be hooking up an AM oil pressure gauge to double check.

Better safe then sorry and i have a spare one kicking around if you want to borrow it :/

Thanks for the offer B but I am not TOO concerned, just something to keep an eye on ATM really. Would be good to know once and for all but I can wait until Damo comes down!

No problemo chief,

normally everything is fine even though the cluster doesn't show that.

But im the sorta bloke that likes to be safe then sorry :D

I've got a NISMO dash if the stock one you get from Damo still doesn't work :D

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By Hendasto · Posted

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
