Ok, after seeing a few skylines on recent cruises, i noticed the rediculous amount of guages being used on the dash lol, though it looks cool, i fear it is hella dangerous, i sore one gogomobile using 5 on his dash, they were boost guages, radar jammers, gps's and some other ones that of which i dont remember, it worked out to be about 5 guages spread across his windscreen.

So was just wondering how many guages you own on your dash, and is it realy worth the vision loss (if they are mounted on the windscreen)

P.S im sure this is a repost, as every topic i post - is a repost

I got three on my dash (water temp, oil temp, oil pressure) - though 2 of them are not working now. I figure its best to have them there, specially when on the track, so that I dont have to look down at the center console to check the readings - and it did help when I was at sandown - till the gauges decided they give up on me.

Got the boost on the A-pillar - reckon I dont need anymore gauges aside from those ones (although I was told that I should look into getting an exhaust temp gauge)

3 in the DIN and one boost gauge on the steering column

Same here.

The three in the DIN consist of water temp, oil temp, and oil pressure.

I also have my screen for the wolf hand controller mounted in the ashtray cavity, but is hard to read when driving, hence the need for gauges.

None of the gauges disturb my vision through the windscreen.

I have oil temp and pressure top of the dash dead centre (cause if i loose oil pressure I wanna be able to notice it), and boost on the steering column.

I also use water temp, knock level, and inj duty cucle on th PFC.

nah I can see fine

That picture looks familiar from there, and which gauge do you actually pay attention to? :D

The A-pillar gauges are cool, but they do get in your way a little bit when turning right, the boost gauge mounted on the steering wheel is sorta useful :)

    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
