Yeah what I meant in that comment is replacing all three. Instead of having 2 or 3 gauges around your dash, just replace the cluster with something better

Can be done if you're willing to shell out the bucks

Writeoff has a very comprehensive set of gauges in his centre console. Maybe he can find you a pic if u ask nice.

He's running Defi's which as talbo said, arent cheap, but they do look gnarly in an over the top riced up way

-D

ah hah finally found them :P seen these on tv ages ago.

awesome for anyone restoring an old car and wants a half decent stereo without spoiling the classic look of their car

n wayne i dont think they are the same they look slightly diff. not 100% sure if its a gtr/gts thing or just they changed the 32 headlights over the years though.

well i just found out i should be getting my car back in December or January its been such a long wait i cant wait to test the t04z etc out on the worked 25/30 at mallala should be fun.

R32 GT-R and GTST share the same headlights yeah?

I need a drivers side one - MINT.

God damn insurance dogs...

No. However some GTSt's do have GTR lights (such as mine, and Chads) The GTSt lights dont have plastic flaps with holes to hold the GTR grille in. So really if they have these, you should be fine..

And going on to what Dan mentioned, the "R32 S1" lights are slightly different in appearance to "R32 S2" ones. So just take note of how they look around the projector area.

whats she making Allan?

patience is a virtue! and ditto whats she making allan ? or not completely fin yet?

hey to all its been like 3 months since ive been on sau... or like 4-5 months since ive been to an event or cruise :P

car is on teh nom nom ... yeah it ate the crank key..... :) found out 3 months ago and havnt driven her since.. just sat inside her then and had a play with the pedals.... i miss being a couple inches off the ground and having extensive left foot exercise... worst thing is it makes sence that its been slowely dying for some time now.. and i think mallala was the final killer.. was never the same since then (6 months or so ago).

nearly finished paving the back carport so i can begin skinning my knuckles and getting to know my car even more.

by chance a few weeks ago mr lewis of lewis engines mt barker came into my work and purchased a very nice sandstone table off me and we got talking... looks like ill be having the privelage of a fully built rb26 when i can save enough coin.

on another note anyone after a pair of greddy t517z turbos with gasgets done 5000 kms approx for $2500

haha no worries mate.

yeah im planning on dropping the motor in on sunday, as Dale's bro in law needs the crane back, for

a long time by the sounds of it, poor bugger...

yeah if you cant grab them let me know, as ill be down south tomorrow and could possibly grab them??

i got an idea, how bout you bring them to me sunday and give me a hand?? :P

yer mitch, ill be there.

im gettin them tonite off the nug meister

as for you being down south, i'll be out near morgan most of the day haha, will arrange later on in the day to drop them to ya :).

sunday.......well if i wasnt workin on my shitboxes i would LOL

should be around the 380rwkw motor and manual box should be in 2way lsd is in nismo intake pump is in then theres the wiring of ecu etc so till it runs on the dyno im gonna say 370 to 380rwkw for now but i have to run her in yet so little hard to say.

So you were trying to sell me a munched out GTR for $28k?

probably using a 10 or 14psi spring in the wastegate so i can run it in abit and get the hang of the car again the way it reacts with these upgrades etc then boost it some more.! :P

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
