exhaust temp, washer fluid level, monster tacho.

In all seriousness think about what you are using the car for which vitals it's most imperative you keep an eye on and if you'll even have a chance to look at them any time other than when you're sitting at the maccas drive through.

Not point asking people on the net what gauges you should get for hektik pointz

Very true. I too am not a fan of pillar and dash gauges. I like the stock look. My R33 is a weekend car which I have my 2 month old bub in the back. So I certantly wont be doing any hektik drifting.

So far Im thinking boost and oil temp (as I have noticed after a short 5 minute drive and the engine is hot as)

Im deciding between water temp and oil pressure but I dont even know what the later is meant for? Can someone explain?

If you go to an EBC you will generally have a boost guage on them somewhere... If its working properly you shouldn't need a boost reading anyway....

If its just the temp you are concerned about get oil

And water temp guages but if it's getting hot forget spending money on a guage and take it to

A mechanic ;)

Another useless 2c post :D

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
