Nismo Cluster - Tacho Eratic - Recalibrate / Repair

[Sinista32]

Hi,

I am certain a number of people who use these may suffer same or have done. So I'm looking for a shop that can recalibrate firstly then diagnose and repair.

Car: Late 92 R32 GTR. Nismo 320kmh, 11000rpm Cluster - Tacho Eratic - Recalibration and Repair of Tacho required.

Note: It has the blue plastic circuitry used in the 92 onwards GTR's.

It can read 800 or 11000 at startup, then work perfectly for an indeterminate amount of time and then off the dial again. and then go back to normal.

There is no "tell" when it will happen or what makes it happen or what resolves it.

Any and all tips on how to DIY appreciated. Although I think it may be best to get someone who knows what there on about to help me.

Thanks guys

Richard

any one know a shop that repairs/recalibrates clusters ?

How lucky are you. I just spent way too much getting mine pulled out of my GTST33 due to no time for me to do it. Lost the car for a week. Guess what, lasted two days before it stuffed up again. Then it was normal, then it wasn't. At the moment it is normal but it will happen again by tomorrow. Advanced Automotive Instruments is in Bankstown I think, give them a call. That's who I made the original inquiry to. I got Advan Performance to do mine but don't know who they used. They did take it to an instrument repairer though so might have been them.

So trying to fix it is a waste of time is what I'm saying. Get a new one. Does your speedo jump a little ?

Ahhh - thank you.

No the speedo stays stable and is correct. Just adhoc spikes in the Tacho.

But seriously thanks heaps for giving me a shop name. I will call them on Monday.

I'd say Advan would have used the same shop. I don't think they're far from them.

If it's not fixed you should be entitled to get cash back or suppose good will on the nxt work you get Advan to do.

I'll check to see if you can buy each dial individualy.

Cheers and thanks again

Perhaps I just move the facia of the tacho unit onto a stocker unit I have and transplant it in.

I don't push it past 8200rpm so going to a 11000 wont be an issue.

All good, Peter said he'll make it up to me. If your tacho is all over the place then pay attention to your speedo and see if it jumps 10 kays and back again. Annoying.
