Hey,

Just wondering if the DIN panel from JustJap fits straight into the console of a R33? Im planning on putting gauges under my deck (nothing is there at the moment) and was gonna make up a bracket to hold them. Although now ive seen this on JustJap and if it fits straight in that would be perfect!! Comes with 3 Gauges and a bracket to hold them!

Thanks! :blink:

Oh Really.... How come it didnt look good? Was it hard to fit? What did you have to do? Will I need to make up any brackets or does it just bolt up really easy?

so many questions! hahaha, just not sure how it would fit in.....

we just placed it in, didnt bolt it to anything. it will slip in behide the plastic bits of the dash (if you get what i mean) the reason i didn't think it looked any good was because the gauges dont sit flush. plus Chi used the cheap autometer gauges too which i think like crap in my opinion.

i will pm chi and get him to post a pic up for you

How come it looked bad? Was it a good fit?

I thought having 3 gauges under the deck would look good!

How did u install it in there? I dont get how people say they slide it in there? how does it hold in position? lol

So where did you end up putting it in the dash? Do you have a pic? :thumbsup:

yeah it did look crap cause it didn't sit flush hmmm i havne't got any pics it was ages ago but gotta thank mikey again for coming over and being my back yard mechanic !!! hah yeah man just get the defi 3 guage combo from nengun for like 400 or and it sits flush and looks great :thumbsup: +1 on china guages being crap hahah gimme ur apexi ones mike !

Autometer are a good brand for gauges... its the autogauge which are dodgy.. which are the ones that just jap are selling...

The GTR torque gauge shows how much is being transferred from the rear to the front end of the car, since it has an all-wheel drive system...unlike your rear wheel drive only GTS-T.

The 32 GTR one shows Voltage, Oil Temp, Boost, so might be more useful... but I'd get the defi one if I was you http://www.nengun.com/defi/din-gauge-rhd

Just noticed that the R33 GTR DIN gauges replace where the aircon unit is on the GTS-T. Will the aircon unit fit in another slot easy enough? Just wondering becasue the top slot has a corner on it.

Cheers!

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
