Hi, just thought i would post this question here too since to see if i can get some answers from stagea owners

Check out this thread:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Di...gi-t238927.html

I dont want to go the standard tack on gauge pod in the stagea since:

1. i want to keep the dash simple

2. the usual DIN slot where people put gauges isnt really suitable

3. i dont really want a gauge pod, for appearance, and as not to draw attention

Do you have a Boost controller?

sorry the only reason i ask is because they will give you your boost guage aswell. I had mine installed in the glove box and its fairly neat and tucked away. if i want to see what is going on i just drop the glove box down and move aside the paperwork i have over it. but then again you will still need your presure line and a few wires to your solenoid. ill take a pic later and post i up for ya.

no, no boost controller as yet. im holding off an electronic boost controller system for the moment because of money and insurance. but i will experiment with the boost solenoid piping, and so a gauge is a must.

even EBCs leave you with the problem of the display being right out of sight, down near the DIN slots or ash tray. id like something small in my heads-up field of view

Google turned up heaps of digital pressure gauges but they are around $400 - $500 and that's without a remote sender unit!!

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
