33GTS/GTST dash in 33GTR

[ferni]

are the dash surrounds in these 3 cars interchangeable?

the surround im talking about is the big plastic part that goes around your stereo/climate control/instrument cluster etc...

is there any difference? some colour/texture is different i belive?

the series 1 and 2 are different, and im guessing the gtr would be as the gtr has a spot for 3 guages whereas gts / gtst doesnt have those guages

From personal Experience i have exchanged my Series 1 dash surround to a series 2 dash surround (r33 Gtst) the difference between the two dashes is that the series one has a light rubber plastic on it that peels eventually, with the series 2 dash it has a coarse serface and dosent peel and the plastic mold it abit more chunkyer if you know what i mean. But in simple terms yes they do fit. I have also looked at r33 gtr's and the dash layout is the same. So YES from my personal experience the R33 gts gtst & gtr plastic dash surrounds will fit.

RedLineGTR - thanks

thats what i thought... my gf's series 2 33 GTS has that rough surface....

in my GTR is more of a smooth surface, the layout looks the same so hopefully it iwll fit...

paulr33 - there is basically space for 3 single din sized units in all GTS/GTST/GTR.. the GTR uses one of those for its set of 3 guages, where as the GTS/GTST generally has a double din head unit, or a spacer etc... so that part will fit fine as far as i can tell....

Will find out - will be picking up a gtst dash this week and seeing if it fits ..

i have taken off the stereo/climate control side, but haven't taken it the whole way off before - its still attached at the right hand side of the steering wheel - anyone know of the top of thier head how to get that part off - where the screws/clips are?

ferni , there are no screws there holding it under the cluster only clips , the only screws are behind the ashtray and when you unclip it there is a screw that holds the temperature sensor for the climate control .

Where is the temperature sensor for the climate control?
