just put a new nismo dash in my r33 GTR and the tacho is reading 2k rpm at idle, with the original dash it read 12500rpm, is there any adjustment or calibration I can do ?

car is running M800 motec if that helps, can the signal be adjusted in the motec ??

dash is brand new out of the box !

Just a thought but what is the real idle ? even 1250 seems somewhat high for an idle at normal running temp to me--but WTF do I know :D

:) yeah 12500rpm is pretty high :D I did mean 1250rpm, its a 2.8l with 272 cams and idles like a top fueller :) love it.........

pretty sure 1250rpm is right ...

so does anyone know how to change it, is it done at the ecu or what ?? there doesn't seem to be any adjustment on the back of the dash??

You got to open up the dash which means the plastic casing and play with the posistion on the needle really a annoying task took me a while to caliberate my gauges when I put el glow lights

really, thats the fix ? open it up and move the needle :blink:

Don't move the needle :blink:

Have you got the Motec software? If so you can check on the ecu what it's reading and see if it's reading the same as the dash (give or take). Pretty sure you can adjust the pulse width of the tacho signal to suit but don't quote me on that.

Idle speed sounds about right at 1100 - 1200 and the tacho won't be able to keep up with the revs anyway, mine doesn't.

    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
