Hey guys and girls,

I've got an Apexi boost gauge that came out of an R32 GTR for sale. It seems the previous owner super glued the gauge bracket to the steering column surround so I'm going to include that too. Upon purchase you can also have the t-piece and a few lengths of vacuum hose I won't be needing anymore

Item located in Victoria (Knoxfield area), inspections welcome and the gauge works perfectly

Asking price for everything is $150

Please contact me via comment within this thread or via PM and I'll get back to you ASAP,

Cheers,

Sean

I cant seem to see any plug/s for illumination :)

Hey bud,

Sorry, I'm not the best with a camera :D, I'm 99% sure there is a small white plug just below where the vacuum line goes into the back of the gauge which I can only assume does the illumination (I'll check for you when I get home)

However I never actually had the power cable that connected to this gauge (it came with the car), this would have to be sourced from a wreckers or something like that

Cheers,

Sean

Hey Sean,

Thanks for the reply mate, well if there is, it will only be a standard 12V electrical mini plug, anywhere like jaycar or a comp shop will have them, just if it helps your sale.

Mate im interested, but I dont want to offend by low balling you, could you PM me with postage to Geelong?

Thanks Bud

Bri.

Hi Bri & Marshall,

As requested I've taken a pic of plug at the back of the boost gauge (sorry for the rough image, just using my mobile phone....camera has gone walk'abouts lol)

If you can't make it out in the pic, the plug at the back has three small pins, the plug itself is very small, around half the size of my pinky fingernail (hope that clarifies what kind of plug it is :down:)

Bri,

Sorry for not getting a PM to you today, run off my feet at work, however I had a chat with Marshall on the phone (on the train home a few minutes ago) and I've agreed to drop the price to $125 (that'll be the lowest I go). If you want everything posted out to Geelong, (according to Australia post website) it'll be around $6 for normal post and around $10 if you want express with a tracking number (however you'll probably get it within 2 business days my guess so it's probably not worth going the latter)

Now I can't "guarantee" the light will work on the gauge because the previous driver didn't hook up the power but I can only assume it'll work

Anyway, since both of you guys are pretty keen on this gauge and I don't want to make it unfair, whoever posts first back on the thread with "I'll buy it" gets the item......unless you guys want to meet up and have a game of paper, scissor, rock? :D

Cheers,

Sean

Hey mate,

Yep, $100 will be fine :thumbsup:

Probably better off meeting up in the city if that's okay as I work there 9-5 but I could stay back a bit later and meet up somewhere if that's preferable

I'll PM you my mobile phone number and we can work something out

Cheers,

Sean

I had to recalibrate the gauge, as it was -0.2 off. Other than that no troubles, managed to cut off the mount from the column, you can have the steering cover back if you want? :laugh:

Either going to order a wiring harness from Apexi, or wait til my tools come then I can just solder some wires straight to the board.

Left a TR for you.

      You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before

      OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:

      R34 manual conversion speed signal wire finding, need help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).

      And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
