Hi Guys,

Sorry i have been away for a week and haven't had a net connection... I have heard back from speed hut and they have agreed to include the 3 gauge console cluster at no extra cost!!

So i would suggest that if you are going to get a set that you get the triple guage set also even if u don't have it on your car as they will sell to any GTR owner around for sure!

Oddy Man and Pintaline Added to the names list

I will pull apart my guages this weekend and take a high rez scan of them and post up the pics

Cheers all :worship:

Hey Guys,

Nah the speedhut place will only start tooling when 25 people have signed up. I think the next step though is to acutally get the ball rolling with speed hut, that way if any stagea owner world wide sees that stageas are on the list and trying to get people signed up they can. I am going to pull out my cluster next weekend and take some scans and contact speed hut to get the ball rolling, then you guys can put ur names down there.

Cheers all :P

I would like a set but I am a bit confused (66yo)

My gauges, from L to R, read petrol, speedo, tacho, temp. The pics in the post are arse about???? Or are they just an illustration?

The other thing I would like is a rheo on the lights?? Is this possible?

If all is well I'm in.

just illustration hugh. They havent made any for the stagea yet, hence the whole 25 minimum thingy. Once they have that many ppl interested, they will make a template from which we can choose colours etc etc, but the layout will be the same as in your car now.

Cheers for your research Paul. Quick question: is this EL setup dimmable?

Yes they are, the power obviously runs from a 12v source to an inverterbox as the el requires a very small amount of power, on this box there are usually brightness settings. I will email Speedhut to confirm though, as some kind of dimmer dial would also be good as it could be integrated into one of the blank button to the left or right of the tilla.

Cheers ill add Xmetal and 66yostagea to the list :)

Thanks guys

I have only looked at series one gauge cluster as thats what i have, if there is someone out there who has a good photo of a series 2 one i can compare. The three guage cluster is for the 260rs peoples out there that have the oil/boost/torque guages that are in the center consol. GTRs come with them as well so you will get a set of these with your order at no extra cost then you can flog them off to a GTR owner :)

For some reason i can't edit my first post! which is a bugger as i want to keep updating it, can a modifier allow me to do this?

Cheers

Hi - add my name to the list if you can - if all goes ahead would you be ok to ship mine to the UK? I have got a set of cyberstork white dials with blue font - I haven't got round to fitting them yet and they read in km/h not miles which I'd have to cover or change somehow - these seem a better option for me if I can have mph printed on instead. Anyway, stick me on the list if poss - I could always add my other set on the aussie ebay site later! Cheers! :spank:

No Worries Hum@nzee

i would add you to the initial post but it seems i can't edit it anymore for some reason. The Good thing with speed hut is they understand that we are a group of people not in the same area so they do all the postage from their location, so essentially we get 25 everyone pays and puts in their own order for what they want printed on there dials (eg miles, kms, stagea, rs260, etc etc) and then they make them up and send them out to each individual person.

This also applys for the 3 guage cluster (pintaline) so you can have battery instead of oil.

Like i said earlier i am going to get my guages out on the weekend and get them scanned, ill wack them into photoshop and try some designs and effects.

They are a sweet professional thing... just need to get the numbers

UPDATED LIST

Signed up Names 11 down 14 to go. Almost half way tell all stagea groups and boards you visit to get in on this please :spank:

Hey Guys,

Well i pulled apart my guage cluster for the sake of this group and as i kind of expected.... i stuffed it hahaha. Mainly because in order to get a full scale scan of the faces for speed hut i needed to take the needles off, which everyone says you shouldn't do as its very difficult to get back on the same. Worry not everyone as to fit these new EL glow ones you don't need to remove the needles.

Anyway i have added the scans and inverted it to look white feel free to add your own logos or whatever you want for your design. Of course mine being an RB26 the redline is higher but as said before its just the shape and poistion of screw holes etc that is required you can have printed anything you like on yours.

Cheers

    • Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.
    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
