I've also converted my Xanavi TV unit to the triple guages but the're not connected/powered because the Xanavi harness doesn't match the triple guages obviously...

If anyone knows an auto sparky in Sydney who can wire this up properly so that the triple guages work please let us know. I know I need to get the harness from Nissan and the part number .. Someone mentioned a boost sensor is also needed, does anyone know the part number for it?

Delta you can get the harness from a wrecker just dont pay any more for it than $40 delivered because you can get one from nissan for that price and the same with the boost sender unit, you will have a plug for it in your engine bay near the brake booster. I have got mine nealy done but i cant find a signal for the boost or the oil temp, the others were ok to find, just need to find the right colour wires for the boost and oil temp and will be sweet. ps there is a guy wrecking a r34 gtt on these forums. I think he has sold the gauges but you might be able to get the harness and boost sender from him.

The part # for the sub harness for the tripple meter is 24018 AA500 in case you need it (its about 40cm long with one female plug on one end, that goes into the guages and one male plug on the other end with 6 wires)

Hey mate. Thx for the part number it really helped. I took it down to the Nissan dealer & they found the part i was after. Only problem is that there isnt any left in australia at the moment. They are charging $45 for the harness plus $90 for postage as they would have to import it straight from japan.

Does anyone have any ideas for a workaround for this? Any other easily accesible parts that i could use to bodge together a home-made harness? Or any other places in Aus that may have one? If i cant find anything, ill just have to order the part from nissan, bit expensive though.

Thanks guys. :dry:

Hey guys,

Been through the site and am still coming up with more questions then answers. And now so I don't get beasted for starting a new thread, I'm reviving an old one.

I bought my new 1998 r34 gtt and the guy had switched the stock triple gauges with the super cheap auto calibre vacuum, water temp and voltage gauges.

I've gone and bought the stock ones and upon switching it out I can't seem to find the plug that goes straight into the back. There are a few plugs back there however none of them fit and I'm stumped.

I did come across mention of a wiring harness part. Part #24018 AA500

Would that be a harness that plugs into the current ones in the car to then directly fit into the true gauge back plug?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Matthew

Holy thread revival batman!

Just wanted to know if anyone would take a photo of the plug?

Also would an N/A have the plug? minus the boost sensor of course. Looking to get rid of the Xanavi, this is probably the best route to go down. Hoping to drop a det in there oneday as its a GT4 and I do like the car.

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.

      Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.

      Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!

      Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
