If you email them to uq1 [at] hate-tank.NOSPAMMERSORYOUWILLDIE.net (remove the obvious) and I'll host them for you :D

Jason.

guys i got a set of white faced gauges for my R32

they arent luminous

they light up like the standard ones

ill find out if i can get em for an R33

i have pics but cant post em so send ur email and ill send em to you

As far as I know the actual gauges themselves are like, glow in the dark type material, and they can change between blue AND green, so I don't think its that easy.

I was hoping I could just put them in, leave the standard globe behind them, and not connect the fancy illuminating globe thingy .. I'll have to have a good look before I go ahead and do it, cause limunated thingies are just ... wayyy too ricey for me :D

done  

hey wouldnt ya just have to change the colour of the rubber cover on the globe and then it would be white light  

just a guess

oh well, I'll look in to it a bit more and let everyone know once I hear back from UAS.

I'm off to watch South Park.

L8r.

Jason.

yeah i know what you mean but i do like them during the day.. i guess i would be able to get used to them at night.

Heya Jason!

I would be interested in the white face that light up blue. rice or no rice i like them :-) I am also chasing after a lit up blue 60 mm boost gauge so that should go nicely with it :-)

Can you let me know how you go with the lit up ones and if spoiler shop can install on a saturday you know how bloody busy i get!! mid jan would be sweeet timing for me!!

okay okay okay enuff is enuff,

i will organise to get the white ones only.

gimme tomorrow to do it.

if I cant i will post up that I cant.

i take it people will be happy with a replacement dial so to speak that slides over the stock one and looks the same except white.

that way nothing major is removed and walla it looks the goods.

can someone post up a rough number i am looking at.

say 8 or 10

And i am sure in about 5 minutes RUSSELLLLLLL from STREET WEAPONS will say that he can do it, cos I know he can.

but if not wait here for me tomorrow

LOL

cam - pretty sure Jase put his in by himself. Have to be thinking the same I reckon.

I'd be keen for the luminous ones - but less keen for the white-faced ones that glow plain at night.

and after xmas sounds good. when I have two legs again. :)

the luminous one are electro luminescent and I am pretty sure they are very opaque so the standard lighting work work well as thepoint of the gauges are to glow and then the dark text etc no light penetrates so it becomes visible.

I can prolly organise the plain whites cheap, and hell yeah zanda i aint paying for no installation. why would you?

alot of the luminous ones have no boost.

the white faced ones i am trying to organise (that dont glow, just light normally) are basically going to be made from someone donating their dials for a day or 2. so anyone with their car off the road etc better be nice to us

1: Not sure :)

2: The second post was of a GTR one, don't know why it doesn't have a boost gauge.

The first two pics were R33 GTS-t's

2 questions,  

1) wouldn't the facia of the dash protect the light hitting the windscreen?

2) The dial shown have no boost gauge.(2nd post)  Is that EXACTLY what their like?

Thats it :)

Any news on the plain white faced ones Riaz?

I'm still waiting on UAS to get back to me regarding their prices etc...

no boost gauge in the gtr one cos the gauge sits in the centre panel din space where the climate control sits.

okay who wants to lend me a dash for about 3 -5 days.

the guy needs the dash to get it scanned etc and see what difficulty there is in producing it.

they acutally replace your ones dont slot over.

can do any colour and with any graphic etc

    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
