Mine is an '88 model, only goes to 8k and the looks like the one on the right.

I think the different style numbers depended on the badge (SE, Sports, Sports Cruising etc).

The cluster in the original post goes up to 9k, but it is the same style as the one on the right, which only goes to 8k.

Also, my cluster doesn't seem to have a check engine light, is it supposed to be next to the cat temp sensor?

i am stupid

checked mine today... 9k rpm revs up to...

ordered my new cluster tonite... 1 week n she will be here mwahahahaha its been painted white in japan (the cluster surround)

so ill just be pinching the actual dials and thats it...

last nite my gf had a stupid idea of pulling off the green bits of the warning lights - so they were clear...

got a headache driving last nite without the green tabs over the indicator and warning lights LOL... theyre goin back on

nah... it was a stupid idea to make them clear...too bright though needs the green slip over it... i dont mind green indicators

once my new cluster arrives next week from jap ill play around with colour options - so excited to have white dials coming!

My cluster is almost the same as the one on the right, except it goes to 9k and has the green behind it, the ceff is apparently a 90 model.

A friend of mine can get the back plate change completely, so you can can have red, white whatever for around 50-100 dollars.

I've been meaning to get mine done, but just to lazy.

my dash is like the one on the right (same lettering) but its manual so none of this park / drive bullshit. Doesnt have the cruise control light though. The rev dial goes to 9k and its a 1988 model. so yea maybe the lettering is based on the model of car it was ......dash light is green though

here are my efforts tonight.

painted the surround

stripped the green sleeve of with yellow globes

but i think i f*@ked up. My mate pulled the needle out of the temp gauge and the tacho, now the temp isn't reading like it used to. So i spose tacho has a good chance of being wrong.

Anyone know how to fix????

Compare the tacho with an aftermarket one, and just get an aftermarket temp gauge, factory temp gauges are way too slow.

from memory thats your projector light button... i think let me check when i finish work

You mean high beam? That's on the other side. If you mean the fog light button then that's not on the cluster. It's some sort of warning light but I can't figure out what for.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
