Yeah I was thinking of putting it there in the corner of the windscreen, but I just didnt like it over there, so just ran a tiny bit more tubing and wiring and whacked it on the steering column and prefeered it there so left it there.

Mine doesnt have a cup or anything, just the boost guage with a single bit of normal sticky tape holding it down :) very proffessional look :P

I'll go get a gauge holder for it, one day..... :(

Where have ppl picked up boost from on inlet man.? I was thinking of picking up from brake booster vac line.

(what he said) :(

There is an unused nipple on the back of the inlet plenum, it has a cover on it, series 1 anyway.

heres mine.. good old double sided tape from manufacturer

id rather ti be easy to pinch that have everything ripped apart

I like this thinking, but I don't like the idea of it flying off and hitting me in the head in an accident. A 2 5/8" mechanical gauge would be a pretty serious weapon... Ouch!

Cheers

Tried to mount my boost gadge on the dash 2day with double sided tape and it wouldn't stay. So I sat it cup holder until I get time to make alu. bracket mounting from hand brake release. I really only hooked it up 4 tuning and to see what boost we r running after full 3" ex., K+N panel filter. I have got an R32gtst w/gate act. I am going to fit, so we will see if they hold 10psi then tune SAF-C. I will take gadge out once tuned. Go the Stagea!!!

Hijack alert... :thumbsup: I have started making some gauge pods for the Stagea which should be ready in early-mid Jan. Single pod and double pod to replace the clock and single pod at the base of the A-pillar. See THREAD HERE for more info.

i like the triple din cluster - are they the drift guages in the $175 kit...? can remember who theat was through.... looks good though.

Im lookin forward to mearcats guage holders, for where the clock sits.

I like it too, it's a shame you can't choose which guages you get when you order a Defi DIN-guage cluster, it would make it so much easier!

Not sure if those ones in that shot are the same ones, but Just Jap are doing AutoGuage packages as a group buy for that price...

:P The ones in Logans car are "drift" brand. Same diff, really, with the blacked out faces when turned off. I recently put three into a mates Exa -

They are a good looking guage, but im not sure of the accuracy on the Drift ones. I had a boost guage in my car for a lil bit, made some funny noises lol

you can't expect three gauges for $175 to be accurate... you'll pay easily more than that for one name brand gauge most of the time.

for example,I recently picked up three defi bf's to put into my stagea. water temp,oil temp, oil pressure and a controller II unit for $650.

will look good in the clock and pillar positions I expect.

Exactly, that's why I'd prefer to wait, save up, and get full electronic guages too. I love the Defi's, just wish I could afford them sooner (as well as all the other mods I wanna do). :P:laugh:

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
