Hey Guys,

Firstly I did search but didn't find anything again!

Just a question regarding the 3 guages in the centre.

What size aftermarket will go in there?

How do ou get them out? Just pop the cover?

Is it as easy as hooking up the existing cables? (oil temp)

And also can i use the factory oil pressure sensor and wiring with an aftermarket guage??

Obviously boost and voltage will be easy. but the oil temp is the only concern?

Cheers

Josh

1. pop out the aircon vents with a flat head screw driver on the lhs

2. remove two screws holding the center gauge.

3. flip up to remove.

Also do a search on "triple gauge" in the forums, the conversion to non-factory gauges has been done before.

^^ perfect,

I tried every thing except triple guage,

Will do now

Thanks

No worries.

As for what gauges fit in there, 2" / 52mm gauges fit in there no problems. Some don't quite look right with the bezel on ( i think autometer might be one of these but don't quote me on that ).

The question about using the factory oil pressure signal - i had a look at the unit last night and there's just a loom going to the back of a sealed unit. I'm guessing one of them is the oil pressure signal and can be tapped in to but i'll have to check my manual to be sure.

Interested in seeing how yours turn out so be sure to post pics mate! :O

Speaking of this my tripple cluster rattles alot and is really annoying for me.

What should i use to put between it and the cars dashboard to get rid of the rattles? Some sort of sound deadener? and where would i get it from?

Use foam weather strips that you would normallly use between door jams. The type that you can peel off on one side to reveal an adhesive.

I use that on anything from the cold air ducts to the gaps around my panels when soundproofing my boot.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
