Cool, but at the end of the day, still much better looking than my black S1 guages, IMHO. So, it would appear that I want s@ guages, and if I've re4ad the other threads accurately, a S2 260RS will have no 'tree' for auto gers in it. Anyone know if the same holds true for all S2 manuals??

I just have this thing about having a manual guage cluster in a manual car....call me crazy...

Mine's a converted S1, and even though the central stack is still there, the "PRND2L" is gone - not sure if the previous owner removed/covered just that section, or if it's a new dash. I can take a picture if you want, Micah, but I'm guessing you get the idea.

yeah.... about the only S1 feature I like better than S2 is the headlights/grille.... I'll just keep on making it into a S2 little by little.... :P

First pic is a series 2 manual cluster from a "s" not 260rs but they are the same

Second pic is from a series 1 260rs with the auto slot in it still, that is how they come from autech.

Third pic is from a series 1 auto cluster, note the selector tree bulbs up the middle

Forth pic is of a series 2 auto cluster, note the different plug for the selection tree.

So there will be some wiring issues trying to fit the series 2 cluster in a series 1

Best thing in your car is to get of yahoo a set of white face dials to convert your cluster and you can also get a new fasica without the auto selection tree slot. Done

Mine are a light grey colour, not quite white.

The marks around the edges of the guages also light up orange when the headlights/dash lights are on, not sure if this is the same for s1?

IMO the stagea guage area (not the whole dash) looks quite cheap - just a very simple plastic mould. They could've done a lot better...

I do like the whole dash layout though. :rolleyes:

It's just I've noticed in the posted pictures: it would seem this is the case. Please advise, series 2 owners ...

Thanks

No not all series 2's came with white/silver gauges only the RS series did & that's why Nissan called them RS meters

The X & G series came with Black gauges..

    • Oh bugger ! Your right ! Good old hydrogen sulfide. Takes me back to the good old school days ! 
    • I've owned a few scooters over the years, a Vespa PX oil burner was my first scooter, followed by a few others, including a little 50cc BeeWee that I used as a barracks bike, and I've had a blast on all of them, they really are the cheapest for of city/suburb transport around The only issue with scooters in Australia is lots of people look down on them due to their size,  maybe they need a big bike to make up for something else where they are lacking, unlike Europe and Asia where every man an their dog owns one, and now that filtering is legal in NSW, local traffic is never a issue Not to say I haven't owned my share of big cc bikes over the years, but they were for more blasting through the hills or Hwy riding where it needed to sit on Hwy speeds Safety wise, I ride like everyone is always trying to kill me, everyone is running a red, or running stop/give way signs, or generally asleep at the wheel, which most people are duringtheir commute, I also ride really safe, and give myself, and everyone else enough room in case I need to pull some hasty evasive actions, I've done a few rider training days over the years, which has come in handy on more than a few occasions  As for mods, there's nothing really, and yes your right about aftermarket exhaust, all you get is loud and obnoxious noises from them, like every 250-300 cc you hear with a aftermarket muffler, in saying this I did put a rear muffler from a 125 Aprilla on one of my old 125 scooters, it was horrendous and no amount of full face helmet and ear plugs would dampen that noise As for coming from the Harley, and what a overpriced POS that was, I no longer do big rides as my poor old busted joints ache after about 1/2 an hour of riding, long cruises are so much more enjoyable now in a car, so a big bike would be pointless   
    • Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.
    • You need to know I am sorry for this.  
    • As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1
