The a31 efi m/t gauge cluster is so hard to find in my country as all cefiro models that were released here are carbed with an rb24s. A friend of mine fitted an s14 gauge cluster and it looks very seam to the shape of the dashboard except that its a little smaller. The r32 gauge is the only one I can find here that is why I am asking but if there is a way to make my stock non-efi gauge to work with an efi engine then that would be good. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hey, can u post ur friend's s14 cluster ?

Also u don't need to swap the whole cluster to make it work. Just get an AT rb20de cluster and take a tacho from it and put inside ur rb24 one. I did this already :rofl: If u use rhd cluster, ur speedo will be on the wrong side. And this complicates things, u would have to do something with the speedo cable and do something about the mounting brackets for the cluster in the front dash.

Sure, I'll take a pic of my friends s14 cluster when I see his car later since its undergoing some works.

Thanks for the info. I'll see if I can find any rb20de gauge cluster. :rofl: Do you think any speed from the cluster of other rb20d engines will work too?

You can swap the dials. But u don't need to swap the cluster itself. U can have the 180km/h dials if u like and have the old mechanism inside. Btw, you can also use your old rb24s gearbox for the ease of conversion. Its the same as turbo rb20det one. Has same part number, red breather hose. Can you PM me ? Wanna ask you some questions about how you do conversions there.

Thanks!

Any cefiro tacho should work, besides the RB24S. That leaves a few more options, RB20E, RB25DE, RB20DET. Manual or auto doesn't make a difference.

Interested about the S14 cluster sortof fitting, would be good for people who do SR conversions, both the tacho and speedo would suit engine/gbox conversion.

sorry for the crappy pics but here are some pics of an r33 gauge cluster in an a31. If they are the same then the r32 cluster will fit too. I'll try to take pics of my friends s14 gauge in an a31 for the benefit of those who wants to use it.

Hella Flush,

Some wires on the cluster sockets were rewired.

daisu,

From the setup done to the cefiro with the r33 cluster, everything from the r32 speedo sensors were used since the engine my friend got came very complete with all those.

Digging up this old thread.

My cluster is playing funny business so this could be a nice little mod. I'm thinking that the engine is RB25 so the tacho should be ok. Box is RB25 so technically the speedo should be ok too. Not sure about the other gauges on there though....

Can anyone shed some light?

    • Waaay ahead of ya....(evil laugh!!) Will show the fitment and spec details later when it isnt as rainy !
    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
