Hey guys,

i just recieved a set of those blue dash lights from dan666.

The problem is that the only ones that are working are the temp/fuel guage.

I have been stuffing around for hours now trying to get the rest to follow suit.

Are they in sequence, if the first one is out, the rest wont work. The leds do work only way i realise, is there a trick to it that i am missing.

PLEASE HELP!!! :) lol

Worked it out...

It has an aftermarket dimmer switch. When i took the cluster out, I disconnected the dimmer switch. The bulbs went in, then the cluster went back in. Turned everything on but nothing worked.

Because i didnt re-connect the dimmer switch i didnt 're complete' the circuit....

Does yours have a dimmer? On first go only the parkers came on as well, so i pulled every bulb out again and re did them.

I hate LED's :)

      Yeah, you are right. It seems easier and more reasonable to boost the engine. And as you said the blocks are very similar but the cylinder bores are different.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      Sound logic, but in actuality way more illegal than just having the wrong pipe. Normally, doing something like that would be forgery. Meaning you may have certain documentation for vehicle parts, but the actual parts are different ones and you just assign them the numbers and badging from the documents. But nevermind that. Nonetheless, I AM curious if this pipe was ever made by any official manufacturer this way, because I honestly am not familiar with this pipe layout and shape. As I will be putting on the HKS Silent Hi Power once my exhaust gaskets arrive, as long as it sounds right I will just roll with this front pipe. I can always order the actual Mines part if I run into legal issues. It would be an unnecessary expense as there is lots of other problems I have on this car as of now.

      So, weld a plate with the Mines logo laser cut into it, onto it. Instant Mines pipes, whether they were or weren't originally.

      I don't know if the blocks are "the same". They will be very very similar. Obviously, either the bore or the stroke is going to be bigger on the 20. If the bore is bigger, then the 18 head is unlikely to fit properly. If the bore is the same, then you can almost certainly fit the CA18 head, but there migth be a few fun things you have to do to make water galleries (or other things) line up properly. Or... it could just be real easy. Is it worth the effort? Almost certainly not. You can make nearly as much power on a 2 valv ehead as you can on a 4 valve. There's not any "magic" in a 4 valve head.
