Hey Guys,

For a bit of Fun click here to have a bit of a play with what we can get done at speed hut when they have completed tooling etc, each person in the group will be able to do whatever combination of things you want.

Cheers

Another couple of Mockups requested by johnny, Although i don't think we'll get away with the car outline... i think its a bit too detailed and might not look any good and i don't have a hi rez version of it to go by unless someone has a good quality scan for me?

We're getting there, i have been in contact with Speed hut and they need an actual Guage unit... luckily i have one spare haha so ill get that sent to them as soon as possible.

Im hoping to get Nismo on the left side, and 260RS on the other, or Autech Version on the left and 260RS on the other.

Dont see the point of having two graduated lines both saying speed in KM/H... ie inner and outer both with same thing.

Also how about upping the redline on it....? instead of red at 8000 say red at 9000? or orange from 8000-9000, then red from 9000 onwards? Just for a bit more wow factor there... Just puttin the idea out there!

The point was to have MPH on the outside and kmh on the inside i just got bored for doing it so didn't really go into detail and get the exactl conversions was pretty much to see how it looked. Im pretty sure you would want to keep ur 8k redline, but yeah maybe orange stripes from 8-9 then solid red after 9. Might see if i can slap something together tomorrow :stupid:

Hey Paul,

Is it possible to maybe design gauges for R32's/R33's. It seems that solely with Stagea owners we won't really get there (we've given it plenty of time). So is it possible to maybe change a logo from lets stay the stagea unicorn to a nismo logo or something along those lines for the 32's/33's. Or are the dimensions different altogether?

Since we have a set for the S1's/S2's and a set for the 260's maybe a set for 32's/33's wouldn't be so out of the question? I'm sure there'd be plenty of interest.

Thanks man

Hey Ian sorry to hear about your car man i understand why your pulling out :D.

D3RV - the R33/32 guages are quite different to the stagea cluster so a universal type that will fit both is impossible. You would need to start your own group i think if you wanted to get that sorted but it suprises me that there isn't already a supplier of skyline ones as the car is much more popular.

Neil, i have had a look at the 260RS series 2 cluster and can't really see any difference... I would think these ones would be okay as the shape is the same.

As un update for all i have posted off the spare guage cluster i have and the center consol guages aswell (will be a hole in the dash for awhile) so hopefully they will arrive soon and speed hut will put up a section for everyone to put their names down.

Just added this topic to the GTROC in the uk so hopefully it will generate a bit more intrest and some more people will add themselves to the list and we can get the numbers up to the needed amount to have them made!

*FINALLY AN UPDATE*

Hey guys,

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to this thread have been flat out and a bit lazy :blink: the update is i have sent off to Speed Hut a guage cluster and my centre consol guages... I suppose i have been a little discouraged because the number of sign ups is only at around 13 or so... when we need atleast 25. I wouldn't have thought it would have been so hard to get the numbers but it seems it is. The good new is as soon as speed hut get the guages they will put the stagea up on their "waiting number" list. Once that happens everyone needs to go on there and commit to buy. The good thing about this is that you guys as the few that have signed up need to spread the word to any stagea owner you know or see to go onto speed hut and sign up...

Ive already forked out plenty of coin for the extra guage cluster and the postage... not to mention they can't guarentee ill get the stuff i sent em back... 

Spread the word people :) 

Cheers

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
