Hi guys, I finally got around to getting my guages installed.

Full credit goes to Maroun(spelling) & the boys down at Race Solutions in Penrith.

Has anybody installed an autoguage A/F ratio guage that has the warning light? I need to know how to turn off the warning buzzer as it's really starting to tick me off. The instructions say to refer to back page but there was never a back page when I bought lol.

I have to say, that install looks awesome mate :laugh:

Cheers! :)

As I said before, Full credit to the team at Race Solutions (next to HITMAN) in Penrith.

It was a bit complicated to get them fitted, the stock guages are a single piece with a flat window that sits behind the pod holes. They had to make a custom mounting bracket to fit them properly.

I'm very pleased with the result :D .

Thanks for all the replies Guys. Keep 'em coming.

Andru, they are all the same colour, I'm guessing the a/f guage turns red when the warning light goes off a certain number of times. Maybe it's to distinguish that guage to let you know something funny is going on. Don't know why it turned on, The engine was off & had the car on ACC :O only happened once so far.

Cost of install all up was $450. Worth it when you consider the final finish of the install & the fact that there was a bit more customisation compared to a regular guage install.

Cheers everyone! :dry:

Love the gauge carrier....do they do one for the R33 ??

That's the stock centre console guage cluster for the r34. You could probably buy a triple guage cluster & mount it in a similar position, but it won't look as good.

A defect in NSW too if the guages go above the steering wheel I think (Edit, Just read you're from the UK lol)

Its probably doing it because your engine was off. I have the same A/F guage, except without the warning light. If the engine is off, the reading will obviously be low. If the engine is on, and the reading is still low and the warning light on, then I'd say you o2 sensor is gone. Thats what happened to me when I had mine installed. Once the o2 is changed, its all good :thumbsup:

Good luck... great looking install :)

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
