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..

    • 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.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • 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.
