If you email them to uq1 [at] hate-tank.NOSPAMMERSORYOUWILLDIE.net (remove the obvious) and I'll host them for you :D

Jason.

guys i got a set of white faced gauges for my R32

they arent luminous

they light up like the standard ones

ill find out if i can get em for an R33

i have pics but cant post em so send ur email and ill send em to you

As far as I know the actual gauges themselves are like, glow in the dark type material, and they can change between blue AND green, so I don't think its that easy.

I was hoping I could just put them in, leave the standard globe behind them, and not connect the fancy illuminating globe thingy .. I'll have to have a good look before I go ahead and do it, cause limunated thingies are just ... wayyy too ricey for me :D

done  

hey wouldnt ya just have to change the colour of the rubber cover on the globe and then it would be white light  

just a guess

oh well, I'll look in to it a bit more and let everyone know once I hear back from UAS.

I'm off to watch South Park.

L8r.

Jason.

yeah i know what you mean but i do like them during the day.. i guess i would be able to get used to them at night.

Heya Jason!

I would be interested in the white face that light up blue. rice or no rice i like them :-) I am also chasing after a lit up blue 60 mm boost gauge so that should go nicely with it :-)

Can you let me know how you go with the lit up ones and if spoiler shop can install on a saturday you know how bloody busy i get!! mid jan would be sweeet timing for me!!

okay okay okay enuff is enuff,

i will organise to get the white ones only.

gimme tomorrow to do it.

if I cant i will post up that I cant.

i take it people will be happy with a replacement dial so to speak that slides over the stock one and looks the same except white.

that way nothing major is removed and walla it looks the goods.

can someone post up a rough number i am looking at.

say 8 or 10

And i am sure in about 5 minutes RUSSELLLLLLL from STREET WEAPONS will say that he can do it, cos I know he can.

but if not wait here for me tomorrow

LOL

cam - pretty sure Jase put his in by himself. Have to be thinking the same I reckon.

I'd be keen for the luminous ones - but less keen for the white-faced ones that glow plain at night.

and after xmas sounds good. when I have two legs again. :)

the luminous one are electro luminescent and I am pretty sure they are very opaque so the standard lighting work work well as thepoint of the gauges are to glow and then the dark text etc no light penetrates so it becomes visible.

I can prolly organise the plain whites cheap, and hell yeah zanda i aint paying for no installation. why would you?

alot of the luminous ones have no boost.

the white faced ones i am trying to organise (that dont glow, just light normally) are basically going to be made from someone donating their dials for a day or 2. so anyone with their car off the road etc better be nice to us

1: Not sure :)

2: The second post was of a GTR one, don't know why it doesn't have a boost gauge.

The first two pics were R33 GTS-t's

2 questions,  

1) wouldn't the facia of the dash protect the light hitting the windscreen?

2) The dial shown have no boost gauge.(2nd post)  Is that EXACTLY what their like?

Thats it :)

Any news on the plain white faced ones Riaz?

I'm still waiting on UAS to get back to me regarding their prices etc...

no boost gauge in the gtr one cos the gauge sits in the centre panel din space where the climate control sits.

okay who wants to lend me a dash for about 3 -5 days.

the guy needs the dash to get it scanned etc and see what difficulty there is in producing it.

they acutally replace your ones dont slot over.

can do any colour and with any graphic etc

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
