Hey mate ill add your name to the list, i have been hounding speed hut for 2 weeks now to get the Stagea up on their 'getting number' board so we can get some deposits taken down etc... but they are dragging their feet

I have sent another email

Don't know about buying them all outright as the dollar is a bit crappy now and they will be a bit more expensive than when we first looked which is a pain, but unavoidable... So if you feel like buying them up and selling them on ebay feel free :laugh:

FINALLY!!!

Hey Guys,

Finally speed hut has taken a photo of the guage clusters etc and have got a build list up on their site! i have already put my order in and i would please ask that all of you who have signed up for a set do the same because the soon we start ordering the sooner we will get the required people and get them built!

http://www.speedhut.com/15orders_el_detail-auto_number-109.htm

Follow this link to the page, please note that by ordering the units you are only charged $1 at the time of order, the total amount is taken from your CC when the required number of orders is filled.... The important thing here is TELL EVERYONE!! get people signed up, go onto every stagea/nissan forum you can find and get people interested, word of mouth is the only thing thats going to get the required numbers.

I have been dealing directly with Aaron the owner of speed hut, so if you have any questions or require more information let me know. 

Bad news for us is that the Aussie dollar has suffered a bit of late making these a bit more expensive than previously thought... but nothing we can do about that

Cheers all

So, besides colouring etc, the basic layout of the dials will be identical, including where the km/h and x1000/rpm text is on the factory guages?

Will it be possible to get the kit without the console dials?

Hey mate, yeah it is possible to get the kit without the consol dials, but when i asked the guy about them to start with he said he would do them included in the price... its up to you

essentially they way it works is the tooling for the layout is just the shapes that need to be cut out, anything on the face can be changed, including having a MPH dial in the middle or just a KPH or MPH, a logo, Text, anything u want really. It does cost a bit extra though for putting a customised logo tho

cheers

will they charge extra for those of us with an RS4s who need a battery gauge in the middle of the small ones? and how bout getting the boost gauge to show psi?

D.

Hey mate, nah they shouldn't charge extra all you will need to do is send them a scan of your current gauges, like i said earlier the tooling is the difficult part, as in what they use to cut out and manufacutre the EL sheet, the printing is the easy bit, you can have ur gauges measure coolness or sickasbro..nes if you'd like :D And if you want it to mesure PSI be aware that the guage is set and programed to measure bar... so you would need to design the template accurately so you get the correct measure... ei. 1bar = 14.7psi etc etc

I don't mind doing the design work for anyone as i am pretty handy with photoshop/illustrator/indesign etc, so if you send me you scans i can make something up.

Coool?

yeh that's what i thought.... i dont have the patience/brain for those sort of things. anyone else keen? :D

i have to pull the console apart to change the hd soon so i guess ill take some pics then.

as usual with these sorts of things... lots of interest to start off with then when people are asked to commit the crowd goes silent... shame but thats the way of things

i'm still keen, just haven't pulled my dash apart to take photos of my gauges yet...

D.

If you sign up only $1 dollar is deducted from your CC, then when (more like if) the number reaches 25 then pull appart your dash etc. The sooner we can get these number up the more likely other people will commit. Its like walking into an empty pub... u'd rather there be a few peeps in there first before you go in. :blink:

Cheers

Hey guys, well cant do it tonight, though ill put my name and details down tommorw, hope they accept visa otherwise ill try and sort something else out. Btw, for those who read im scott. I have just bought a 99' stagea from japan through j-spec. Quick specs.. its yellow haha two sunroofs and well that about it :P Arrives august the 4th. Little performance mods planned for the next two years unless i do them stelth like. Ill introduce myself and the car in another topic later.

But yeah put my name down on the list, im keen.

Excellent :) i'm sure they accept Visa no issues there. Just get signed up doesn't take long we just need to get the ball rolling as i am sure more and more people will sign up when the numbers get higher as the likelihood of us getting it quicker is increased. Thanks Scotty

Bump! :D

After reading the possibility of changing the globes to a different colour being useless I went searching for this topic and i finally found it! :(

Any other people interested?

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
