The one I purchased has faulty oil and temp gauges so now I am looking at getting a 3rd and final one. Has anyone got one IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER they can sell me?

Please PM me.

Thanks!!

Todd

You're so high maintenance aren't you Todd. Why does everything have to be in WORKING order?

I have a few odometers and a few canon exhausts that you can go check out - drop me an SMS and we'll tee it up.

cheers,

J

i gess $50 if thats what your offering. im not 100% sure if i will sell it. im waiting on a nismo 260km/h dash and i would like to check that that all works first as it seems hard to find one with everything working.

i gess a week or so. im in launni but i am more than willing to come to hobart as im trying to get together some parts down there. if you wanted it sooner that could be aranged.

my cluster has 75900 ish on it and my possible new cluster has 55xxx ish. ill let you know in a day or so.

yeah, I can wait... Would just be good to know what is actually happening with my oil pressure! (It's all over the show!)

what pressure does your seem to show on average? mine shows just below 4.

After putting this cluster in it shows 4 on startup, then drops just below... at times it is just above 2 (still normal) but then it will drop down to 0 for a few mins and pop back up (it won't do it all the time, just some of the time!). It drives and runs perfectly no matter what the gauge says and it has only happend since I installed the cluster.

I figured the first step would be to confirm what is happening with the oil pressure before looking for another problem (oil pressure sensor, oil pump) but it would be just as expensive (if not more) for me to buy and install an aftermarket gauge or to take it to a mechanic as it would be for me to replace it with one that is working for sure!

Worst case it keeps happening, I can flog off the other cluster and find the true issue or if it is the cluster (most likely) then it has only cost me $50 odd dollars!

Any advice? Or does everyone agree?

Todd ever single 32 i have had i have found that the standard cluster's have never been that flash for the oil pressure or temp gauges.

If your worried about it i would be hooking up an AM oil pressure gauge to double check.

Better safe then sorry and i have a spare one kicking around if you want to borrow it :/

Thanks for the offer B but I am not TOO concerned, just something to keep an eye on ATM really. Would be good to know once and for all but I can wait until Damo comes down!

No problemo chief,

normally everything is fine even though the cluster doesn't show that.

But im the sorta bloke that likes to be safe then sorry :D

I've got a NISMO dash if the stock one you get from Damo still doesn't work :D

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
