Just spent 5 hrs taking my old shitty bubbled and screw-hole riddled dashboard out and putting in a replacement. Got the new dash on but need to get some interior parts before I finish the job ;P Heres what the car looked like without a dash

Anyone know what wreckers are open tomorrow?

Wow that's a damned mess :) Not sure about wreckers opened tomorrow, I think you'll be very limited

Hey heslo, was it you or nightcrawler who replaced the stock GTR boost gauge with a psi/bar one in the centre din ? Im sick of mmHg and I want something that goes up to 2 bar or 28 psi... anyone know how I can do this on a 32 while keeping the stock volt/water temp gauges?

Cheers :P

Not me buddy but been wanting to do the same also, don't need the small boost gauge there, wanted to replace it with another gauge but can't find one small enough. I don't know if Andrew did this either but if he did would be interested to see it done

damn, i know someone did it... using the stock triple cluster, and just replaced the faceplate or the gauge mechanics itself... would be nice to get that stock gauge reading up to 2 bar, or even 1.5 bar.... would save my having to sacrifice an aftermarket gauge slot...

Just went for a testdrive, no speedo ;| Think I havent put the speedo cable into the dash properly... ohwell, tomorrow more stuff to do it looks like..

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
