Hi guys, it seems there's a bit of interest in the Cyberstork gauges, so after a bit of correspondence with them I'm organising a group buy for them, for sets that include an SAU logo.

Here is a sample of the gauges and what they look like:

R32 GTR:

Stagea:

R33 GTR (this is how you will recieve the covers):

gtr-33-w1.jpg

All gauges will have an SAU logo on them, unlike the ones sold by other resellers locally. Installation is relatively easy, with instructions for each and every model available. Please note that this is a thin semi transparent film that allows light through (NOT an EL or reverse EL sheet), and is intended to sit on top of your existing gauge's dial. The thickness of the film is such that the needle should pass over it easily (unlike some aftermarket EL gauges).

Gauge markings come in an option of two colours Blue and Red, you have to pick one of the two when choosing your dial. Blue markings show up better on cars with blue/green backlight (ie almost all nissans) and red ones show up better in yellow/orange/red backlights.

The following dial colour options are also available (but will cost around $20 more per option chosen):

1. Grey, Green, Orange, Pink, Light-blue, and Purple

2. On applicable models - coloured needle cover (some models have clear needles, that can take a coloured vinyl, like 180sx's).

The dials are translucent, ie they let some light through, which means if you use it in combination with an unmarked EL sheet, you'll get the same effect as a expensive EL gauge set. You can also use higher brightness LEDs in your gauges and coloured backlights to create special effects. The durfaces are mildly UV reactive as well, so if you were to point a couple of UV lights at your gauges they will glow.

The following models (that are relevant to SAU members) are available:

Stagea WGC34/WGNC34 1996 - 1998

Stagea WGC34/WGNC34 1998 - 2001

180sx series 1, transitional and series 2

Silvia S13, S14, S14a, S15

Skyline R32 Series 1 - HCR32 (ie GTE, GTS, GTSt), HNR32 (GTS4)

Skyline R32 Series 2 - HCR32

Skyline R33 GTS, GTS25t

Skyline R32, R33 GTR

and the R34 V Spec GTR

we can order toyota's, subarus and anything else cyberstork make gauge covers for... check here to see if your model is catered for:

Nissan: http://www.cyberstork.com/items/nissan.html

Toyota: http://www.cyberstork.com/items/toyota.html

Honda: http://www.cyberstork.com/items/honda.html

All others: http://www.cyberstork.com/items/other.html

when you post in this thread to regster your interest you HAVE to include the following:

  • Your name
  • The model of car - for example, if you have a R32 GTSt you will say "1992 HCR32 GTSt", and if you have a 180sx, you will say "1992 RPS13 180sx"
  • Options wanted
  • Any other details which you think will help expediate the process
  • I may depending on the response, get a batch done with Super Fun Happy Sliders and Team Wang Racing logos as well. (I won't be doing any other logos, so don't ask.) Please note in your response which of the three logos you are interested in, so I can keep track of interest.

Also looking forward to hearing any thoughts and questions you guys may have on these gauges covers.

The cost is estimated to be around $125 (depending on the number of units we get) plus postage (which should be around $10 at most within Australia). This may become cheaper the more we order. Any profit made will go towards the forums (we expect to make $2 - $5 per dial). Payment is upfront and once everyone has paid we will make an order. If there is an overwhelming response, orders will be done in batches.

Keep in mind these are covers for your gauges, not replacements, they DO NOT include gauges and mechanicals. Also, even though it is cheaper without the SAU logo, they are not as cool :D If you want to just get generic ones from cyberstork with no SAU logo, then please do not post here, as this group buy is ONLY for ones with the SAU logo.

As per the first post:

All of them will say SAU, if you don't want an SAU logo then buy em through a reseller.

In your reply, make a note if you're interested in the SFHS logo or Wang-R logo instead of the SAU logo instead, if there is a large enough interest I'll do a special order for those who are interested in them (no other logos will be entertained).

Hi,

I don't know alot about the dash of my car due to never needing to look around in there :D

If i was to buy one of these what else would be needed to actually install them ?

Or can you use the rest of the parts from your existing dash ?

you don't need any extra parts as such, just take out your cluster, slip the white face over the existing dials and reassemble. You'll need a stanley knife to cut out the faces though.

Although while you're at it you might wanna upgrade the lights in your cluster to something more colourful n stuff, but that's totally up to you.

Chris, is that for reverse EL gauges with SAU logo that light up in a colour other than metrosexual cyan or pink? :D

anyways, pics on an R32:

depending on what you do with the backlights:

with blue bulbs in the cluster (pretty eeasy swap):

147-2.jpg

with UV lights from the front:

143-2.jpg

red backlights:

137-2.jpg

with an EL backing

118-2.jpg

on a regular cluster it decreases the light by about maybe 5%

Hey Shane, i've got the nismo 260 and that shouldlnt matter right since this is only clear film?

Also can you shed some light about upgrade instrument lights while we're at it? Like which, where and do we have a pic of them white gauges at night?

Cheers

So what would the cost be for

White faced dials for S1 Stagea (97)

+ However many high brightness LED's there are in blue like in http://www.kumazon.com/cyberstork/customize/upimg/147-2.jpg

(i believe its four)

im pretty damn interested, want to get these ASAP coz i find my dash to be pretty damn dim...

Man, these look interesting...do a certain amount have to order one for it to go ahead?

how many sales do you need for the price to be $125?

are they easy enough to install?

do you think I ve asked enough questions yest?.... :angry:

The R34 GTR has 1-2-3000 rpm close together and enlarge RPM for the remaining....

If chuck that dash into a GTT, will the RPM work properly?

I mean let's say rev at 3000, will it be actually showing 3000rpm or 4000; where the position or 3000 should be?....

yah confusing...I cannot find any way to explain it better...

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
