i'm keen... would be extremely keen if they could do the centre gauges for a manual too..... if they can do them, i'm in.

D.

in following the same conditions - in pending din pocket guage cluster! Otherwise it will look fairly odd...

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

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
