Hey guys just wondering if anyone has one of those autogauge digital tacho and shift light in 1 that just jap sell and are they any good I want to get a shift light and tacho but dont want a monster tacho or anything

Yes that's exactly it it's made by autogauge I have a rb25det in a Vl and the standard tach does nit work so I was thinking one of these however unsure how it will go with a aftermarket ecu

Ok. So it seems that it is more accurate than the hand controller as it appears to react quicker. Most of the time it is within 50rpm when stable. Just pause it constantly through the clip to compare them.

Yeah I'd say definitely more accurate because it is updating the rpm a lot quicker than the powerfc. The other tacho seems to change about 3 to 5 time for the powerfc's one time. Just gotta pause and play it real quick.

I'm assuming your being sarcastic there as many people on here don't like Vls

Mate I reckon vl's are great. You put any vl with the same power and grip as any skyline and which one comes first? vl every time. But the interior of the vl lets it down. That's my opinion.

On the subject of setting the shift light, it is controlled by the button in the centre of the tacho. You press it and it will go up or hold it and then press it and it will go down. It is just like any aftermarket tacho. They are a standalone unit. I was just using the handcontroller for comparisons sake before.

Yeah what I meeant is say I want the shift light at 6000 I get to 6000 on the hand controller say the tacho 5980 I set it at that that's what i meant

Oh ok I get you now. The tacho is adjustable in 100 rpm increments. I can feel another youtube clip coming on. :D I think mine is set to 6800 or 6900. Most of the time I actually shift at 6500 or 6600 cos it feels better there. i only really rev it to 7000 or so if I need the speed from that particular gear.

    • Hi guys my 94 r33 gtst fuel pump has gone out. I have a walbro 525 ready to go in but am unsure if I need to upgrade the fuel tank bulk heads? Ive heard that others have issues with the stock wiring melting... Ive seen alot of people recommend this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-nissan-skyline-r33-r34-silvia-s14-s15-billet-fuel-tank-bulkhead-hat-top-an6-with-high-current-connector-apex-2-8-delphi-fpg-100?variant=42873255198898 My current pump that stopped working is aftermarket but I had no relay mod or upgraded connectors. Need some advice please. TIA
    • It’s new. It’s the cd009. I did take the transmission apart to mill down the bellhousing and had both housings come off the gears so wondering is something isn’t in right. I am running redline. I can get it in gear running too but it’s just not easier and it’s almost like 2, 4, 6, and reverse all the back gears aren’t happy going in
    • I’ll remember that as a last choice. It’s brand new
    • Got keys and did a walk around the yard planning the landscaping works with the family that I will be doing Main effort: remove all the woodchip in the gardens that are around (attached) to the outside of the house and replace with 10mm blue metal, having woodchip close to the house is a recipe for inviting white ants, currently there are no white ants within the block and I would like to keep it that way I'll be buying some large raised garden beds to grow veggies and stuff, and the woodchip will be mulched with everything else that gets dug up, pulled out, or cut down during works Next will some minor drainage and landscaping maintenance up one side of the house, where the fuse box, AC, and solar stuff will go, about 12 mtrs long by 2 meters wide, I'll break up the soil, add gypsum and then I'll dig in a French drains about 300mm deep x 300mm wide and fill it with agg pipe and blue metal, then level out the whole area with a 50mm layer of blue metal, the soil, whilst currently pretty compacted, will break up well with the gypsum to aid in drainage, I'll then cover the area with a 50mm layer of more blue metal In saying this, the drainage issue is minor, but that little hidden away area down the side is untidy and weedy, and as all of the main elec stuff is there I want it neat and tidy to appease my OCD Again, the material excavated from the French drains with be added to the garden bed mulch, as will some rose bushes and some other crap looking garden plants, and a old apricot tree that is looking worse for wear The apricot tree is currently in a little roundish garden bed that is in the middle of the back yard with few other crappy looking plants around it, that will all be removed, levelled, re-turfed, and is a perfect spot for a hills hoist There is also a area about 3m x 2m between the rear fence and shed that will get some attention, it looks like some stuff was stored there and the grass is dead, that will also get broken up and mulched, and is a prime spot for a pumpkin patch I've guestimated that I'll need: 3 tonnes of blue metal, 12 meters of agg pipe, 5kg of Gypsum, and a hills hoist, so a few bags of concrete as well to set it in place (the house currently has one of those pull out 4 line jobs, whilst it works, I want a retro old school hills hoist), I am also going to run some chickens, there's a great spot for a coop, so a chicken coop to suit 4 of those lovely egg laying bitches will also be on the job card That should keep me busy for a while, and will finish off the back yard ready for a early spring planting of some veggies and berries  Once the main effort is done I'll start out the front, there's a large rock garden that could use some TLC, but that is only minor works Should be fully moved in within 2 weeks, the landscaping works will start then Fun times, retirement is good  
    • It happens, that's what your single stage filler is used for.  If it is still visible after the 3 coats of 2k primer, it will be visible after the paint is laid down.  Its hard to give 100% perfect advice without being there in person, I'm very tempted to say stop where you are, fill your pin holes with a single stage putty first then keep going.
