s15 gauge cluster and bezel finally finished (looks killer)

[r1jlewis]

I finally completed my S14 to S15 gauge cluster conversion. I also made a custom trim bezel that fits perfectly with all 4 guages molded in. Took a while and a lot of beer, but I got it done.

[fiznat]

[Bruno240]

[GrubyFngaz]

[whiterps13]

wow, not only do the s15 gauges look awesome, but the way you mounted the other 4 is pretty trick. nice job, you seem to be a perfectionist

[AJ1356]

looks swweeet, write up with pics is a must. i want to do one of those , already have a cluster with the wires:)

[BomexS13]

wow thats bada$$ dude.

[240DRFT]

wow thats looks so good. you did a great job.

[240sxluv]

looks good

[MAXIMUS Nismo]

cut, copy repeat. Take that to the bank

Patent your method and make some serious money.

I'd pay you to do that to mine. Even get you free beer.

[574-240sx]

Thats dam nice. Great job.

s15 gauges are sex, nice job.

[r1jlewis]

Thanks guys for all of the positive feedback. I don't know if any of you guys have seen the last one that I made a couple of months ago? It's the stock S14 cluster. It's some were on this forum. I do believe that I am going to make a mold of it. The S14 one that I had sold on ebay in about 2 minutes. I am still in process of making the mold for the S14 first. I will also look into making a harness adapter for the S14 to S15. The main problem with the S15 is the speedo whick I am still trying to make a converted to keep the S14 tranny. That might take me a while. I have a true S15 motor and rear end, so it's not that hard for me to do.
Thanks again

[ForsakenTH]

wow thats awsome...def if you make a harness to convert sign me up for one

[swwifty]

wow that looks pimp, I'd take one! hehe.

Does the S15 cluster, etc. fit directly up to the S14? Is trimming necessary? How difficult would it be to swap this cluster directly into a KA24 S14? Thanks in advance

[trackslut240]

the best custom job i have ever seen, we need a write up, this would solve all the gauge mounting woes, patent and start making some money off it,
at least patent it,

production can wait, makes the demand go higher,

excellent job.

Do some for an s13 stock cluster (the 4 gauge pod thingy, even 2 would make me happy). I'd buy it :-D.

[f1seb]

I would buy that too. I have my turbo kit ready to be installed and my next modification would be to get some gauges to install and this is by far the best i have ever seen. You are onto something here.

[Chingon]

Nice, although I don't dig the gap left on top from what looks like trimming of the s15 cluster.

[JustinStrife]

Make it work in an S13 and I'll fork over some cash and a couple 12 packs.

[MAXIMUS Nismo]

ok. get your method down on paper. Secure a patent or something, then mass produce it. Seriously man. I'll buy one. And you already got a few other takers here.

Then put it on Zilvia and the other 240 forums, the european and japanese forums.

Even if this is the only thing you do, you'd be well off.

[KRUZNBY]

That looks great!!!

[r1jlewis]

Alright, I am on the patent process as of yesterday. I don't see why I can't make one for an S13 model. And as for the remark from someone about a gap, sorry but there is no gap, it just looks like it from the picture. I bought an S15 trim and a S14 trim, cut both of them, and put everything in place to match all of the curves correctly and then molded them together to look just like a factory drop in. When I get going on this, I will definately post back. If there any other ideas for different moldels, that one might be interested in, let me know and I will see what I can create. Thanks again, for all of the feedback.

[Megadeth]

That's nice!!!!! I love the cluster. Where did you get that gauge hub from?

[r1jlewis]

What do you actually mean by gauge hub?

[Megadeth]

What do you actually mean by gauge hub?

The RPMS, Km/h, and fuel/Temp gauges.. That whole little hub..

[r1jlewis]

The gauge cluster (i believe your calling hub) is out of the S15 model. It's the stock cluster. Hope that's what you are wanting to know.

Yup and thanks!!!

[97ka-t]

I can't wait to get the "harness" from you- I'm anxiously waiting

[chmercer]

sorry, but looks kind of cheesy to me. very car show-esque. might look a little better if you painted the silver part on the gauge cluster black or somthing. also ditch the autometer a/f lightshow gauge. trade in that oil gauge for a 3/4 sweep. and clock them. finally, that is a big *** steering wheel. also your gonna have crazy glare if some sun gets past the cowl.

sorry, not feeling it.

[ddgsxr504]

I like it, looks great. I am wanting to make a custom bezel for my S14 by just putting 2 gauges in my bezel trim (instead of 4 like yours). What material did you use to make yours.. i.e. fiberglass?

[r1jlewis]

Believe me, there is no glare with tinted windows (chmercer), and truthfully, as far as I have seen, it's the only one like it. Why does some one want guages all up the side pillar like a bunch of people, instead of straight in front of you? Don't be mad becuase you can't build one. And yes, it's made out of fiberglass. On another note, it's not all just show, there is alot of go behind it.

[swwifty]

hehe.

LOL.. How did I know you were gonna post back. In my opinion I hate the pillar gauges.

[ddgsxr504]

Oooooh That engine bay is CLEAN! Snap!

I guess (chmercer) has never heard of that old saying "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all!

[Flicktitty]

THAT LOOKS BAD good job!
