I finally decided to make a gauge pod for myself

I have a mold for these now and i was trying to gauge if there would be interest in these

I would be looking at selling them for $60

Would anyone be willing?

Here are a few photos of it just in place in my car

excuse the poor quality pics i only had my camera phone handy

I tried one a while a go and i didn't have any luck with it as it hit the crash pad

hence why i made one although i could be wrong

I was going to paint mine in acrylic once i have the time to get it colour matched

Read up somewhere that a guy used the R33 gts-t one on his Series II and it fitted almost fine just one of the sides was a bit short but it still fit fine. Back a few years ago when i was in crash repairs we would use this stuff to paint bumpers called texture coat it gives the same sort of rough peely texture finish at the oem trim...

Acrylic doesn't seem like a bad option but not sure how it would go against the damaging UV rays on plastic.

Well at least i have one now made specifically for the stag :thumbsup:

Cool i might give that texture coat a go.

the acrylic should stand up to ultraviolet it's going to be painted fiberglass anywho i think it should work fine

In case anyone wants to see the end result. Picked this up from Peter yesterday along with my Sub Enclosure, will post a pic of that on the Enclosure thread. Very happy with end result, Peter does great work!

It really does sit quite a lot lower than where it was, It's virtually the same level as the top of the heater grill. You can barely see it from the side as well.

Will snap some more photo's throughout the week if people want to see what it looks like from different angles.

Cheers

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By drifter17a · Posted

      So been ocd with timing mark but checked from few angle and seems both cam are on and crank is matching as well to the slot on sump and crank pully   i noticed crankshaft cover has been robbed as per attached pic. Any ideas why? Could my balancer or harmonic be on its way out? should I replace the cover? https://ibb.co/ZR1JFYRR

      So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
