just put a new nismo dash in my r33 GTR and the tacho is reading 2k rpm at idle, with the original dash it read 12500rpm, is there any adjustment or calibration I can do ?

car is running M800 motec if that helps, can the signal be adjusted in the motec ??

dash is brand new out of the box !

Just a thought but what is the real idle ? even 1250 seems somewhat high for an idle at normal running temp to me--but WTF do I know :D

:) yeah 12500rpm is pretty high :D I did mean 1250rpm, its a 2.8l with 272 cams and idles like a top fueller :) love it.........

pretty sure 1250rpm is right ...

so does anyone know how to change it, is it done at the ecu or what ?? there doesn't seem to be any adjustment on the back of the dash??

You got to open up the dash which means the plastic casing and play with the posistion on the needle really a annoying task took me a while to caliberate my gauges when I put el glow lights

really, thats the fix ? open it up and move the needle :blink:

Don't move the needle :blink:

Have you got the Motec software? If so you can check on the ecu what it's reading and see if it's reading the same as the dash (give or take). Pretty sure you can adjust the pulse width of the tacho signal to suit but don't quote me on that.

Idle speed sounds about right at 1100 - 1200 and the tacho won't be able to keep up with the revs anyway, mine doesn't.

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
