Ok, so my tacho and speedo are giving me the Sh#ts. Tacho is jumping all over the place then not working then ok. Had enough. The Nismo dash clusters on E-bay are going for $780-800 so can I put a GTR dash into a GTST ? They say in their advertising you can but excuse me for being sceptical. After all, E-bay wouldn't lie. Or should I just replace the tacho with a brand new stocker ? If the tacho and speedo are the same design perhaps I could just throw away the dash and just use the tacho & speedo as a simple replacement. Anybody done this ?

hey man i recently purchased a nismo 320km/h dash cluster and can confirm it works. all plugs are exactly the same and everything works as it should. check this one out. This is the same one I purchased. Cheapest you'll probably find: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/JDM-Nissan-GTR-R33-BNR33-Nismo-320KM-11000RPM-Cluster-Gauge-GT-R-RB26DETT-/261176664139?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3ccf57a04b

i have a GTR dash in mine, everything works but the oil pressure gauge seems to sit at the top so was wondering if that might be different... my brother has the 320km nismo unit in his and works perfectly,

its very worth it too, the gtst dash is a piece of shit!!

I know it's missing the window glass but I ordered it anyway. Hope I can get a replacement or my GTST glass fits. Thanks anyway.

Thanks Ravi, it's been posted so should be here soon. The one I have now has done 345,000k's, maybe that's why it,s playing up. As a side note, I was just discussing with a friend how in 12 years of ownership I have never blown a single bulb anywhere in the car, amazing. Let me know what you want for the GTR glass and I may buy it just in case.

Well, I can confirm the Nismo dash into GTST R33 absolutely works. Very happy. Time consuming putting it in but mostly because I cleaned and polished as I went. Only annoying thing is the numbers on the speedo are so small. I'll get used to it though. Something tells me I may never see the needle at full speed. And the glass from the GTST is the same as the GTR. For those who have done this before obviously you know it works, this is just to let others know, thanks.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
