Hey I'm new to te forum and I've just bought a n/a r34 and in the middle of the dash there is just like a storage thing there. Now I've done some research about sometimes there is a pop up tv or gauges or something like that there. Mine has nothing exept some cabling which makes me think that maybe there was something there before I would really like anyone's advice on where or how I can get some gauges that fit right in there or if anyone is selling. There are a few turbo ones but I don't want a boost gauge when I dont have a turbo. So something like volts. Oil press, and water temp.

Thanks.

your best bet is to go down to your local wreckers and pick up a second hand triple gauge cluster or alternativly you can buy a carbon one on ebay. then just remove the old gauges ( its all one piece) buy the 3 gauges you want to put in ( i think its 52mm off the top of my head) and wire them all up :) thats the basic explanation for you. if you need anymore help just ask.

There wouldn't have been anything there before, GT's and GTT's just share the same dash so it's all there if you do want to install the holder. I did it in mine, very easy. There's a how-to thread on here somewhere with pictures showing you where to cut the dash.

if its just for looks get a GTT one might need to wait but they occasionally pop-up on ebay or the forsale section. Might end up costing a bit. If your not in it for the looks then i suggest google ECUtalk they have the small LCD's about $250 which will give you live reading on pretty much all your main sensors, ECUtalk consult cable for $80 just plug in laptop and away you go. Cheapest option would be an Ebay consult cable from china, does the job.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      Lock up the old for sale / wtb threads.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
