2. The cigar socket is removed, 2 connectors are removed.

3. The ashtray is removed, the screw of the inner part is removed.

4. The shift panel is removed. In case of AT, you step on the foot brake, you insert in LOW turning the key to a ON, lower the emergency brake and pull out.

5. Shift it into park again to use the emergency brake.

6. 3 screws under audio you remove.

7. In order to remove the panel, the door is opened.

8.jpg

8. The front panel is removed, via some mounting clips. Apparently the best method here is to start from the middle and work your way to the edges.

9. On the reverse side is 2 connectors and 1 sensor.

10.jpg

10. On reverse side 1 connectors for mirror

11. Top and bottom 4 these screws are removed.

12. Remove the 3 marked screws, 4 connectors the reverse side.

I didn't take these photos, or write the tute, just translated. Figure someone could use the info quickly. I was researching the cluster myself, and couldnt find any tutes.

Hope it helps

Also take note of the plugs in the back of the dash, 2 out of the 3 can be filipped 180 degrees, very poor design and is a pain in the arse when replacing it with a cluster that has the plugs in a different position.

HEY DUDE!!

Ur a legend

Had to high blood pressure for a few days now after a road trip frm Sydney to Melbourne

and my Coil-overs were pretty stiff....n things rattles alot n loosen up the wirings behind my consoles

my Climate controls button malfunction, cigrette lighter fail, cd player malfunctioned and speedometer keep deadening

all n all toook it to a local mech, and quoted me to fix all that $400!! I was LIKE G.T.F.O.O.H.!!

and here I was ponderin away n this Note floated by n I was like why the F*** not give it a go

TA-DA!!! after 1hr pulling n connecting back everythin in place and all works like magic...

$400 is locked up in my wallet, blood pressure to normal....and reliefe! lmao

hey guys,

need a bit of help with this. my indicators have been wired up the wrong way around (works fine on the outside of the car, but it's backwards in the instrument cluster).. is it difficult to just switch these around when the cluster is pulled out?

if it's too hard i don't want to rip it all out for nothing

I had to pull my cluster out the other day. For my car, an auto R33 GTST there are simply three plugs from the car that connect into the back of the cluster. I can't see any way of swapping the indicators around by just pulling out the cluster. It’s all fixed circuit tracks. Might be something at the plug/further down the wiring.

yeah, i had a look and came to the same conclusion. my car used to have a nismo dash in it, so they probably re wired some stuff manually. i'll have to whip out the multimeter and go through everything individually.

thanks

    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
