i know this may have been covered before but i thought i'd post up..

i went into repco and asked if they sold a dash mat/cover for R32 skylines. after a couple minutes of searching, they sure do!

Moulded Car Carpets of western australia make the "Aussie Mate" dash mat range for most common cars which you see on the racks, but they also make a range for cars that they don't produce for often.

they have to be ordered so i couldn't see the final product.. but for only $51 i thought i'd bite the bullet and see how it turns out. i'm actually really happy with the design.

it only took 2 days to get to my local repco store from the day i made the order.

they are moulded to shape and made of good quality. they look like they will last.

here's some pics:

what do you guys think? some people say dash mats look too 80's, but i think it looks nice.

for anyone interested the product code is AMNI191BL.

hmmm ive got 2 questions

first one is what is the dail you have in the RHS air vent? and how big is it - and how does it stay in there

secondly - is that a drift style handbrake? how do you find it?

it's a boost guage. not sure of the size but it fits in nice and snug without any brackets or modifying.

yup it's a drift handbrake. brought it for $15.

if anyone wants extra/different pics just give me a yell.

if your putting it in that side vent then 60mm gauges fit mint, like the Apexi EL2 series

Looks mint man Dave, really neat!

Hook me up with pictures of that other shit we were talking about yesterday ;)

oh shit man.. i totally forgot!

dw i'll be getting that pink tutu and the wig for those pics you requested asap. :)

Hi dmr,

Thanks for the heads-up on these dash mats, have always wanted some for the r32 & r33 i've got but always thought you'd have to get custom ones made-up.

Went down to my local Repco shop this morning and was able to order a dash mat for both.. I think the dash-mat no for the r33 should anyone want it is: AMNI192BL for black and AMNI192GY for grey in colour, there is also a mocha one in colour, but didn't even query that as I though it'd look Sh!t..

Cheers,

Adrian

Hey,

Went for black in colour on both the R32 & R33, just thought I'd stick with stock colours.. I wanted one moreso to protect the R32 GTR dash and keep the bubble from growing which seems to plague all R32's and make them look crappy. I won't be velcro'ing it in place or anything it can just sit there..

Haven't picked them up yet as there still being ordered in but mine were supposed to be $65ea inc GST and delivery as I'm regional, not city, so might be cheaper in the city should they have stocks available??

I'll post pics of R33 when available :thumbsup:

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.

      Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
