i know this may have been covered before but i thought i'd post up..

i went into repco and asked if they sold a dash mat/cover for R32 skylines. after a couple minutes of searching, they sure do!

Moulded Car Carpets of western australia make the "Aussie Mate" dash mat range for most common cars which you see on the racks, but they also make a range for cars that they don't produce for often.

they have to be ordered so i couldn't see the final product.. but for only $51 i thought i'd bite the bullet and see how it turns out. i'm actually really happy with the design.

it only took 2 days to get to my local repco store from the day i made the order.

they are moulded to shape and made of good quality. they look like they will last.

here's some pics:

what do you guys think? some people say dash mats look too 80's, but i think it looks nice.

for anyone interested the product code is AMNI191BL.

hmmm ive got 2 questions

first one is what is the dail you have in the RHS air vent? and how big is it - and how does it stay in there

secondly - is that a drift style handbrake? how do you find it?

it's a boost guage. not sure of the size but it fits in nice and snug without any brackets or modifying.

yup it's a drift handbrake. brought it for $15.

cheers guys :D

if anyone wants extra/different pics just give me a yell.

if your putting it in that side vent then 60mm gauges fit mint, like the Apexi EL2 series

Looks mint man Dave, really neat!

Hook me up with pictures of that other shit we were talking about yesterday ;)

oh shit man.. i totally forgot!

dw i'll be getting that pink tutu and the wig for those pics you requested asap. :)

yup it's a drift handbrake. brought it for $15.

i want to get one - every time i do a motorkhana (about once a month on average) i tape up the button with duck tape

if your putting it in that side vent then 60mm gauges fit mint, like the Apexi EL2 series

cheers man - yeah my 32 has a hole there so was thinking of doing something with it :D

Hi dmr,

Thanks for the heads-up on these dash mats, have always wanted some for the r32 & r33 i've got but always thought you'd have to get custom ones made-up.

Went down to my local Repco shop this morning and was able to order a dash mat for both.. I think the dash-mat no for the r33 should anyone want it is: AMNI192BL for black and AMNI192GY for grey in colour, there is also a mocha one in colour, but didn't even query that as I though it'd look Sh!t..

Cheers,

Adrian

great :thumbsup:

what colour did you go with?

i was considering grey since my car is gunmetal but i passed up on it thinking it would look ricey.

if you get some pics for the R33, post them up.

Hey,

Went for black in colour on both the R32 & R33, just thought I'd stick with stock colours.. I wanted one moreso to protect the R32 GTR dash and keep the bubble from growing which seems to plague all R32's and make them look crappy. I won't be velcro'ing it in place or anything it can just sit there..

Haven't picked them up yet as there still being ordered in but mine were supposed to be $65ea inc GST and delivery as I'm regional, not city, so might be cheaper in the city should they have stocks available??

I'll post pics of R33 when available :thumbsup:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
