Just a question... why go to the trouble of putting nice gauges all the way over on the other side of the dash when the only time you would read them is when you were drifting around a right hand bend, at which point i would be watching the road rather than my gauges? I can't even read the numbers without blowing up the image.

I'm by no means having a dig at you for it, as I believe everyone should modify their car in what ever way makes them feel good... I just have never understood it???

I will say that I am happier to see that you didn't just get the hole saw and cut straight into the dash like some... very handy work there with the glass mate, well done.

but the thing is if you know what the gauges are (ie position) and what the needles usually sit at, all you need to do is take a quick glance, check the needle position and see how its going....

it the same with the gauges place under the head deck near the shifter - its hard to read them there aswell....

    • I hope one day I can do it like you. Your engine looks great.
    • If there's nothing else I can do I'll probably do something like that Someone on the internet said that ca20s and ca18 engine blocks are the same and that you can use a ca20 engine block and put ca18det parts to make a ca20det Do you think this is possible or will it damage the engine?
    • Yeah, I did some research and found out that some things are different.
    • Makes sense, thanks! Consider me very impressed. And I very much appreciate the effort in documentating all of it. You'd be surprised, or maybe not, how many people this reaches who search for things online. Anyways, I shall continue to read all of it, understand maybe a quarter, and hope that some of it sticks if I ever end up in a situation where it's relevant
    • 'Did' work on them is more accurate ~ on the R31 Skyline forum, you can spot me as 'Solder'... I've written quite a bit about the 4R01 boxes there, and I ended up reverse-engineering the older TCU type operations, so we could fudge a custom TCU to pull off other tricks...and like all things, when you do it a lot, see the failure patterns, have to find parts etc etc, your head ends up filled with whys and wherefores... there was a reason Nissan went with these in more than 60models over 16+ years... all in all, the JR401E based design is an interesting study, as Nissan changed things over the years in a never ending battle against them lunching on themselves <grin>...by the time the RE4R01A rev.C came out (often referred to as RE4R01B), they'd more or less perfected the design...
