Recommended Posts

I finally decided to make a gauge pod for myself

I have a mold for these now and i was trying to gauge if there would be interest in these

I would be looking at selling them for $60

Would anyone be willing?

Here are a few photos of it just in place in my car

excuse the poor quality pics i only had my camera phone handy

I tried one a while a go and i didn't have any luck with it as it hit the crash pad

hence why i made one although i could be wrong

I was going to paint mine in acrylic once i have the time to get it colour matched

Read up somewhere that a guy used the R33 gts-t one on his Series II and it fitted almost fine just one of the sides was a bit short but it still fit fine. Back a few years ago when i was in crash repairs we would use this stuff to paint bumpers called texture coat it gives the same sort of rough peely texture finish at the oem trim...

Acrylic doesn't seem like a bad option but not sure how it would go against the damaging UV rays on plastic.

Well at least i have one now made specifically for the stag :thumbsup:

Cool i might give that texture coat a go.

the acrylic should stand up to ultraviolet it's going to be painted fiberglass anywho i think it should work fine

well i do have them for sale at the moment for $60

although if a GB of 5 could be done i could drop the pricing from $60 per to $50 per pod

If anyone wants one just pm me and i'll give you my details

It really does sit quite a lot lower than where it was, It's virtually the same level as the top of the heater grill. You can barely see it from the side as well.

Will snap some more photo's throughout the week if people want to see what it looks like from different angles.

Cheers

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
