Hey all,

I have a S1 R33 and the tacho is farked. I'm leaning towards putting in another complete dash cluster rather than replacing the tacho only. Im tempted to import one of the nismo clusters although will prolly just end up with a second hand gtst cluster. But how do i / where do i go about getting the odometers matched? Although the current odometer reading is prolly bs in my '95 car i dont want it reading 0ks either :mad:

Thanks

Cam

Not sure if odometers can be re-set. although if dodgy car salesman can wind them back surely you could wind one forward if need be. Have you thought about just trying to find one with similar k's to your cluster?

Send it to a speedo place like Olympic Instruments in Pymble Sydney. They can check is out, clean it up, lube the little gears with the correct instrument grease, and reset the speedo to whatever you ask. Just remember you can't go back past your previous pink slip, looks a bit sus.

I'd only replace the tacho - actually I'd tear the tacho out and get it repaired. Prob. only cost as much as a cluster and you get a reconditioned unit, not some dodgy s/h cluster that you still have to have serviced.

Just seen your in Melb. look in the yellow pages under speedo repairs maybe.

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
