Hi guys & gals just a quick question,

Will a r33 gtr cluster plug straight into a 33 gts?? The plugs look very similar. (see attached pic of rear of a 33gtr cluster)

I searched but could not find any specific information about this.

Thanks in advance :P

Yes it should fit, but as i found out, if the speedo is above 180km/h eg. i have a nismo 300km/h speedo, you will have to get it recalibrated, other then that it fits. Also if its a gtr speedo, you will not have a boost guage on the rev tacho.

Thanks for the info dave :P

So you have one fitted to your car and it just plugs right in?? boost gauge isn't a problem since i dont look at it anyway (have a proper one on my a pillar).

I have done it on R33 sedan, fits straight in. Need to calibrate speedo as diff ratio on GTR is different

how do you recalibrate the spedo?? is it done on the car or do you need to take it to someone and supply them with the diff ratio of my car??

To get it calibrated you need to get it onto a dyno and get the readings for 60 80 100 km/h on the dyno. Note the dyno speed compared to gauge speed. Take instrument cluster to a boffin/instrument type electronics person and they will know what to do. I skipped this step as I just put the same ratio diff as a GTR in me car.

digging up an old thread.....

i have 2 spare dashes laying around.....

i was assuming if it was a 320km/h etc speedo it will require recalibrating of such.

will the 180km/w gtr cluster plug and plug on a gtst or will i have to re calibrate it as well due to the diff ratio?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
