Just spent 5 hrs taking my old shitty bubbled and screw-hole riddled dashboard out and putting in a replacement. Got the new dash on but need to get some interior parts before I finish the job ;P Heres what the car looked like without a dash

Anyone know what wreckers are open tomorrow?

Wow that's a damned mess :) Not sure about wreckers opened tomorrow, I think you'll be very limited

Hey heslo, was it you or nightcrawler who replaced the stock GTR boost gauge with a psi/bar one in the centre din ? Im sick of mmHg and I want something that goes up to 2 bar or 28 psi... anyone know how I can do this on a 32 while keeping the stock volt/water temp gauges?

Cheers :P

Not me buddy but been wanting to do the same also, don't need the small boost gauge there, wanted to replace it with another gauge but can't find one small enough. I don't know if Andrew did this either but if he did would be interested to see it done

damn, i know someone did it... using the stock triple cluster, and just replaced the faceplate or the gauge mechanics itself... would be nice to get that stock gauge reading up to 2 bar, or even 1.5 bar.... would save my having to sacrifice an aftermarket gauge slot...

Just went for a testdrive, no speedo ;| Think I havent put the speedo cable into the dash properly... ohwell, tomorrow more stuff to do it looks like..

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
