yeah theyre drift/racetech brand. They arent bad for cheapie gauges. Better than autogauge. The AFR gauge ticks though as it flicks between rich and lean very quickly.

I cant really justify the $$$ for greddy/apexi/defi gauges which are just for bling.

I'm surprised that one of the posts above said that they had a series 2 S and had fitted the boost gauge where the autos have the hand brake.

Don't all the RS4S's have it inbuilt? ie mine does, see http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...i&img=43861

(boost is the one on the right)

Auto's don't get the 3 centre gauges standard as far as I know Ian.

So does that kinda mean you have a series 2 series 2, in effect? :D:D:D

:) Yep. though don't forget the S on the end as well :) .. I'm not sure what they updated - though I think that is when they changed to the white dials , not sure what else they did (they also made the bayside blue color a factory standard choice ). Thus the question re the boost gauge..

Hmmm, mine's a series 1 converted to manual, so I can't really compare. As Ska would say, it's an RS-Four V+S. :D

Probably the best people to compare notes with are others with S2 RS-Four S's - Wolverine, EGA41T (Andy) and Oxford1327 (Daniel) for a start. Daniel's the one who has it in the hand-brake recess.

Personally, I think that's a handy spot for a turbo timer or similar, but not for a guage - imagine how long it would take to look down, find the gauge behind the steering wheel, re-focus your eyes, check the reading, then look up again and re-focus on the road again. Recipe for disaster...

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
