R34 gtt

Just got some of those blue dash lights for the dash and the standard boost gauge etc..

has anyone put the new lights in? Dont want to be stabbing in the dark with what parts to be removing in order to put the new lights in. Do i have to remove the steering wheel? had a quick look beofre, just dont want to scratch or bust anything that doesnt have to be touched.

cheers. :banana:

steering wheel can stay on.

pm sean i think silver r34 plate jdm. He done it awhile ago.

thinking of doing the same to my car

I couldnt get the dash all the way of without taking the steering wheel off. So I put it all back together cuz I didnt wanna stuff around with the steering wheel and had no idea if it would do anything to the airbag or whatever.

Any idea with the centre gauges ? Alot of the skyline pieces 'clip' together, but didnt wanna snap anything

Yeah mate you definitely can get the cluster out without taking the steering wheel off. Drop the wheel down as low as it will go, remove all the screws then gently, but forcefully manouver the cluster out.

The centre ones are easy as - get a narrow screwdriver in the edge of the air vent assembly and pop it out. Then undo the 2 screws you see, and the whole thing comes off.

      It's the same ABS unit from the old shell.  It was all just lifted and shifted.  I am looking at the BMW MK60 ABS unit as a budget upgrade, as I'm not keen on handing over 15k for a Bosch unit.

      Bear in mind RBs tend to be pretty terrible for fuel economy and it heavily depends on driving style. In my experience with a heavy-ass turbo Stagea the 10l/100km is really just ideal conditions highway driving. Start-stop in the city is killer and it ends up being 16-19l/100km easily. I keep track of it every time I get fuel and it is never pretty. There are a few topics in the forums where people share their fuel economy if you want to get some ideas of what it can be like. I don't think it is worth that much to compare though because it depends so much on the driving.

      R32 GTR Limp Mode?

      R32 HICAS, so long as the CU is not itself faulty, is easy to keep working enough for the PS. Just unplug the smaller of the two loom plugs, on the CU, like I have already said about 4000 times on this forum. This works with all the stock hardware, or with a lock bar, or with a complete removal. I know, because I have done all of them. OK, actually, I never put a lock bar on because why would you put a lock bar on when you can get rid of the whole lot, including the stupid tie rod ends?

      Join the NorCal facebook group btw, but if you can confirm it is HICAS I would install a lock bar and do the work to keep the HICAS control unit happy despite the hardware not functioning. The HICAS control unit is also responsible for speed sensitive power steering so if it's unhappy you'll get failsafe/heavy power steering. A standalone can control that power steering solenoid valve but sometimes it's just easier to stick with the factory setup. Tomei makes a little electronic module that you can install to fool the control unit. I would probably go through the effort to not use a scotch-lok and build a harness so I don't have to chop up the OEM harness. Where you could source those connectors and pins I wouldn't know at the moment though.
