Ok guys i have completely pulled my dash aprt to try and install two autometer gauges i have bought. They are water temperature and oil pressure. I have ran the power cables and two appropriate hoses, one for each gauge, into the engine bay, my only problem is i have no idea where they go. So my question is where does the plug for the water temp gauge go and where does the hose for the oil pressure go?. My car will be off road until i get them in as puttin dash back together to drive it then pull apart again is somethin i cant be stuffed doin so any help would be greatly appreciated!. This is on a r32 rb20det. Thanks guys.

For the oil pressure you have to find the oil pressure sender on the side of the block where the oil filter is. I'm trying to put my oil pressure on at the moment, its a real prick because you have to remove the sender and then plug in a metal t piece and then put the sender back into the t piece. Btw the sender is directly left of the oil filter with a cable comming off it and a rubber seal around it. Some how you have to unscrew it which is very hard. I havent got mine off yet so any help from anyone who has done it would be great. Also with oil temp what did you guys plug yours into? My fitting is too narrow to fit inside the sump and seal it off, any reccomendations?

For autometer oil temp i drilled a hole into the sump and welded a threaded fitting to it. Screwed temp sender into fitting.  To do this means you have to remove sump, obviously.

Theres gott abe a easier way than that isent there?? As i an new apexi oil temp gauge coming soon with some other parts

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
