Umm not sure what u got sourced but tere is a guy who has a complet r33 gtst gauge cluster.

I think he wants 300ono ..

Not sure if its series 1 or 2 thoe, but thought i'll let u know

thanks heaps mick.

It is unfixable, I tried taking it somewhere but unfortunately I truly stuffed it when installing my white faces (blue at night) by myself :D

let me know, thanks.

ps. the boost is a seperate gauge and it work fine!

Grim,

nah, I dont think so. I took it to an instrument repairer and he fixed my speedo cos I stuffed that too. He took apart the tacho but said he couldn't do anything with it. It gives me very wrong readings, doesnt move at times, gets stuck, is basically stuffed.

Need one bad!

    • Nah, it's not the reduced knock margin. It is a direct mechanical effect of having to initiate the combustion earlier, while the piston is still rising, which starts to exert combustion pressure on the rising piston earlier, making the rest of the engine work harder to finish driving the piston up to TDC where the combustion pressure stops being a negative and starts being a positive. Your modern engine that only needs ~10° to make MBT doesn't waste the other 10 or so degrees of crank rotation. That's almost all of it. The difference in knock margin might go either way. Remember that modern engines to which you are currently comparing the long tractor engine (the RB) are now running super high compression, direct injection, tricky cam control and maybe even cylinder pressure sensors. You're not comparing apples with other fruit. It's apples and sea weed, or some other evolutionarily primitive vegetation. And remember, squish only really comes into play at the very end of the stroke. It certainly does good things, but it is not the biggest contributor to what's going on. It is quite possibly much less important in 4 valve head than 2 valvers also, because there is so much less squish available to a 4 valve anyway.
    • Food for thought, a longer stroke motor would need less ignition timing vs. a shorter stroke motor requiring more ignition timing.
    • Thanks Duncan, HART is only 10 mins from me (I did my bike license there), it'd be awesome if it ran these types of things.  Sutton Road does look good and they take fewer cars than SMSP which is good.  Surely you have enough land to lay a few million tonnes of concrete and some sprinklers D? 
    • I thought an engine that needs more ignition timing to make power is going to result in less power due to reduced knock margin? More time for the combustion to propagate -> more time for it to heat up the rest of the mix to detonation.
