Cool, but at the end of the day, still much better looking than my black S1 guages, IMHO. So, it would appear that I want s@ guages, and if I've re4ad the other threads accurately, a S2 260RS will have no 'tree' for auto gers in it. Anyone know if the same holds true for all S2 manuals??

I just have this thing about having a manual guage cluster in a manual car....call me crazy...

Mine's a converted S1, and even though the central stack is still there, the "PRND2L" is gone - not sure if the previous owner removed/covered just that section, or if it's a new dash. I can take a picture if you want, Micah, but I'm guessing you get the idea.

yeah.... about the only S1 feature I like better than S2 is the headlights/grille.... I'll just keep on making it into a S2 little by little.... :P

First pic is a series 2 manual cluster from a "s" not 260rs but they are the same

Second pic is from a series 1 260rs with the auto slot in it still, that is how they come from autech.

Third pic is from a series 1 auto cluster, note the selector tree bulbs up the middle

Forth pic is of a series 2 auto cluster, note the different plug for the selection tree.

So there will be some wiring issues trying to fit the series 2 cluster in a series 1

Best thing in your car is to get of yahoo a set of white face dials to convert your cluster and you can also get a new fasica without the auto selection tree slot. Done

Mine are a light grey colour, not quite white.

The marks around the edges of the guages also light up orange when the headlights/dash lights are on, not sure if this is the same for s1?

IMO the stagea guage area (not the whole dash) looks quite cheap - just a very simple plastic mould. They could've done a lot better...

I do like the whole dash layout though. :rolleyes:

It's just I've noticed in the posted pictures: it would seem this is the case. Please advise, series 2 owners ...

Thanks

No not all series 2's came with white/silver gauges only the RS series did & that's why Nissan called them RS meters

The X & G series came with Black gauges..

    • No no, sorry I think I made you misunderstand. I have this Tee as well as the lines that go from there. What I am missing is the banjo bolt that connects this line (OEM turbo oil supply line) To this hole, this line is mounted on the turbo and reaches around it so you have easy access the oil and water supply being rerouted to this dual banjo port in the front. like this
    • Nothing at the moment as previously there was a crappy braided line going from engine block directly to the turbo. I have bought a used OEM hardline for the turbo oil supply, which goes from the engine block to the marked hole. I don't have any of the OEM banjo bolts for oil except the one at the block.
    • This is the tee No specs on the page I grabbed it from, out of stock there anyway. But it kinda looks like a 1mm pitch. Would not think it's going to be 0.75mm pitch.
    • OK, I'm with you now. The outlet of the tee that is banjo'd into the block. Dunno what it is, will have a scratch around. The M11 question is.....messy. The minor diameter of an M11x1.0 male thread is 9.917mm. This is smaller than the minor diameter of a 7/16"-24 UNS (which is 10.08mm). The M11 major is 11mm. That's smaller than the major on a 7/16"-24 UNS (which is 0.4375" or 11.1mm) so an M11x1 bolt should pass on the major side. The pitch of a -24 thread is 1.058mm, which is really close to the M11x1, so it should go in at least several turns. I would expect M11x1 to be loose in a 7/16"-24 UNS, at least until enough thread are engaged to make it stop screwing in, if that can happen. Probably wouldn't happen on such a short bolt as you're looking at on the oil tee. Keep in mind that 7/16"-24 is NOT a standard/typical 7/16" thread. Standard is 20. That's the UNF or fine thread. -24 is really fine. I imagine that Garrett chose -24 for the turbo housing oil inlet to get the number of threads engaged up. I would not expect Nissan to have an imperial (UNF, etc) thread on that tee. I would expect it to be metric (if it is a bolt thread) or BSP (actually the Japanese equivalent of BSP) if it is a pipe thread. Given that it's a banjo, it's going to be a bolt thread. If it looks like an 11mm will go in there, then 11mm seems likely. It is very possible that some clown has stuffed that thread by trying to jam some imperial "near equivalent" into it, perhaps with those hoses of yours. Got verniers? Measure up the threads on the hoses.
