Hey guys , just keeping this in the vic part because im sure theres an easy answer . Fitting 2 defi guages ( with controller) on the weekend and just want to know where you can feed the wiring through the firewall? , i had a quik squizz but nothing jumped out at me so i thought id post up to make it easier . Also with the defi's , one is an oil pressure guage so it has a fitting/sender to screw into the oil pump , im guessing the original sender is located their and just want to know if the fitting supplied will screw into the existing sender or an adapter is required.

thanks adam

well if it's anything like an r33(or sils.180's etc) there are a couple hoels. One is a big rubber grommet that sits just above the air con pipes, above the dump pipe area. It's for a loom and it comes out right above the passenger foot rest..shouldn't be too ahrd to spot

I have routed all of my wirings through the drivers side - just "above right" of the accelerator - its not easy to run wires through but is the best for what I needed:

A. Direct route to battery - for amp wire

B. Direct route to vacuum hose - for boost gauge

C. Direct route for security stuff

D. Easiest route for A/F Ratio gauge

The wires end up coming out near the original manufacturers plate in the engine bay, green / blue one.

No gromets at either end but you may need to create the initial hole at the drivers / footwell end!

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
