Ken, I've seen the 33 ones and thought they looked pretty good. they sit in the middle angles towards the driver. where do the R32 ones sit?

The R32 ones sit on top of the instrument bezel and curves over the lh side next to the wiper switch.

Our Targa Prepped R32GTR has one on but it's in Tassy atm so no pics sorry.

These ones are made from injection moulded plastic with a stippled finish on them and all that is required is 2 or 4 small screw holes in the dash. As the R33 ones sit below the w/screen line, they cant get defected for vision impairment.

They even come with some double sided tape but don't know how strong that would be.

cheers

We have one here for an R33 GTS-T and they sit on the middle of the dash.

$200 and it's brand new.

BTW, they do them for A31's as well.

Cheers

I'd love that.

Dono if it's worth $200 for it though, why is car stuff so ridiculously expensive? I might have to get contacts in japan to source it myself and see how much it costs.

all about the same price, $200 which isn't bad considering it holds 3x 60mm gauges and most pillar pods hold 2 and are around $150-$180 for good ones.

Cheers

Ken

can you get some that hold x2 or can one be cut / removed ?

On an R33 since you wont be cutting holes, You would have to route the cables along the base of the windscreen somehow with some black conduit or something.

Would love to see one fitted, I'll be happy to get rid of my pillar guage. (single 60mm pod, $60 from Rocket Industries)

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
