I recently converted my TV/Satnav (factory Xanavi setup) to the standard R34 triple guage set up .. I still have the subharness from the old satnav setup in there and was wondering if there is an adapter/converter of any sort that can turn that subharness into the one that connects to the triple guages ?? Cheers

My advice - rip out the Nissan gauges and run some Autometer or other gauges in their place. I got some AutoGauge ones for about $35 each. Ripped off the faces on them and used the original perspex and cups from the factory gauges. Works a treat and much better than the stock nissan ones.

where'd you get them for $35 each ?? The cheapest I could find was $200 for a set of 3 from justjap..

The thing with aftermarket ones is that each guage requires extra wiring and parts to be connected which could end up costing me another $300-500 in parts and labour

Throw some Defis in there, I did,

They fit with hardly any work, just remove the back of the stock gauge holders and wedge the 60mm defis in and then make a support bracket to keep them there and wire them and you're good to go. I ain't know electrician but I have some electronic knowledge and I can read diagrams well, it wasn't too bad.

presuming the Xanavi harness can double up for anything else is just - how can I say it politely - optimistic - now thats being really polite!

so my best advice is that in this time of economic downturn why not do the Kevin Rudd thing and spend some money - on a sparkie - and get the job done right

the triple gauge set up is not the only way to go and if you want different read-outs apart from what is already on the main cluster why not fuel pressure and vacuum gauges for example - not just repeats of oil pressure etc - in my R34 S1 manual Coupe I have Blitz gauges on the A pillar as well as the pop-up Xanavi unit still in its original place ........................

    • 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 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
