Awesome guide! Though, can anybody tell me how to remove the dash part thats below the steering column? I've found at least one philips screw and two bolts on the right, but still can't get the darn thing off. Affraid of ripping it up if I pull to hard..

It is clipped in at the top and you really should remove the dash surround (as pictured in the guide here) to remove properly. There is 1 x phillips head screw and 2 x 10mm bolts where the bonnet release is. You then have to pull the bonnet release cable out of the way and it pop the panel out from the bottom then the top pops out of its locators behind the dash surround.

Hope this helps.

Sorry i know this is an old post but i did all the steps to the part where i take out the dash itself mine seem to have more than just the cable clip it had single lines to the dash as well could you possibly guide me a bit more thans.

Again with the resurrecting of an ancient thread... but does the dash surround from an R33 GTR fit into a GTS-t?

Just to answer my own question - yep, it fits fine :)

And everything works fine? Must be from the same year though? I assume the back circuitry boards are the same colour? I did a r32 gtr 89 model stock dash to a white face nismo cluster and that worked fine after changing the clusters over

Assuming this is a response to my post above - I only swapped the dash surround, i.e. the fascia that surrounds the climate control, headunit, mirror controls and cluster, not the cluster itself.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
