R32 Gtr Dash Cluster Mod

[0zhiph0p]

Hey guys did a search but couldn't find much info, I was thinking of replacing the centre tripple gauges in my 32gtr with some better aftermarket ones but I was thinking oil pressure oil temp and boost seem like a good idea but there is already and oil pressure on the dash cluster, so I thought maybe I could take the oil pressure lense off make or get made a new lense and have volts and water temp in the cluster, and then I wouldn't have 2 gauges for oil pressure. So my question is can this be done and has anyone done it. I was thinking maybe if the volts gauge motor/ actuator fit where the oil pressure is ment to mount I could re wire the connection to the cluster to read volts, well I'm guessing they just read voltage and display by input voltage or whatever but being only battery it shouldn't be too difficult

And then run all aftermarket wiring for the new centre gauges.

Does anyone have a picture of the back of the tripple gauges so I can see how they mount into the housing please ?

I replaced mine with Autometer oil pressure, oil temp and boost. I should be able to find a pic tonight if you still need one. Or if you're in the western suburbs you can come and have a look.

Old Gauge setup,

Fitted Defi setup, love the way the R32 console is entirely made for the driver, slanted properly,

Here is the way they were mounted behind using some old stereo brackets,

And with the center shifter and stereo trim fitted,
