hi all,..

i've noticed that some r32's have a blue background on their RPM, Speedo, oil, temp, boost gauges on the instrument cluster and its not those illuminicent types. and its not the bulbs ... its clearly the background with the klms, rpm reading etc..

my factory is black background.. and definately the one i saw was factory as well .. maybe a GTR cluster?

does anyone know if the above can be purchased somewhere? or is it something done aftermarket?

I did about the same as you, but mine were really dodgy~~

but have a look anyway.

They look alright... can't really tell how bright they are from the photo. I'll see if I can get a shot of mine.. I think they came out really well. I also did the centre console gauges on mine.

:)

It should be the same but you should check somebody's first before getting a new one.

I might have one lying around if interested.

dude where u at? can i check them out ??

let me know!

that means i have to wind back the clock on urs ....how much k's does it have?

cheers!

I'm in Syd. I'm not sure on K's but you might be able to just use plastic or the blue film. I'll try to have a look at it tonight if i dont forget.

sweet ass .. let me knw how u go ... .. i think we can just remove the plastic fins but sometimes the labels (numbers etc) are on the hard plastic of the thin plastic fin (blue)

check it outz and let me know ..

or is it better juzz to get the nismo 300+ klms cluster?

how much do they go for?

I found that the early guages dont plug straight in, the tracks on the back are a bit different. But it's easy enough to swap the blue faces onto the later dash.

thanks dude for the info ..and everyone 1 else who contributed ..

i might just have to source them out somewhere ... i wonder how much the cluster is?

Okay to tell you the truth... they are not bright enough for me, I can't see what speed I am going at most of the time... probably will put more drilling and LEDs in later on.

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
