R34 Triple Guages On Non-turbo R34

[iseekool]

Hi all,

I've been intending on purchasing an oil temp and voltage guage for my N/A R34.

I came across a genuine triple guage set from a R34 GTT on ebay for a bargain so i decided to purchase it.

Does anyone here know how to wire it up? especially the oil temp guage. I imagine the volt meter would just splice into the cigarette lighter wiring.

-> and for those wondering about the boost guage - I'll probably just leave it (not wire it up) or find a clock of the same size

Cheers

Oil temp you'll need to grab a sender unit off a GTT or a GTR and screw it into the side of where the filter goes..then wire to the gauge.

Grab a boost sensor of an R33/R33 and wire that to the boost sensor, at least it'll show vacuum.

Yeah thats true. I just bought 3 cups, and 3 gauges which came with the car but were'nt installed.

Got DRC to install them for me. Just 100 bucks, i didnt mind because i didnt want the headache.

Thanks for that. Would you happen to know the part numbers? and are these sensors easy to install - in terms of no drilling or needing to fabricate anything?

No idea on part numbers, just got to a wreckers....boost sensor is drivers side rear-corner on the engine bay behind the strut tower, the oil temp sensor is a small can looking thing with a wire going to it, joined to the alloy ring that the oil-filter screws into.

Should be zero drilling, just running wires
