just finished installing the R33 cluster. everything is plugged. a few things im still working on, but the important stuff is going.

pics came out a little bad because of the flash. i even tried different angles and lighting with no luck. but its probably because i just suck with camera.

let me know what you guys think.

or is the boost gauge in bars? It could be .7 bar (about 10 PSI)

That looks really nice though, I don't know what people are complaining about with the fitment, looks like it belongs.

kevy8up the gauge reads in 100mmHg wich equates to about the bar system, so .7 is near 10 lbs.

gabossie it fits the s14 ALOT better than in the s13.

Conversion: 760 mmHg = 1 atm = 14.7 psi = 1.01325 bar.

So 700 mmHg = 0.93 bar.

Btw, the gauge cluster looks good, and matches too. Too bad the R32 cluster is white on blue... I much prefer the stock white/black colors.

yeah im putting the r33 cluster in my s14... did you have to do any cutting or mangeling to get it in? lol looks like it fits fine, well on the left there is a white spot that i can't determine whether it is a flash thing, or something... everything else looks sweet...

also: i found a mechanical device that will convert kmph signal to mph , and do a lot of speed adjustments, its like 150$ but its well worth it if it works, 180mph speedo = sweet. i forget the site i gotta find it

How's the wiring?

The wiring is simple and straight forward. Some things might take tracing (the ones that go to the f3). But most are found on the back of the cluster. Just use some imagination.

its not that simple guys, there are small diffrences between every generation

Krayton could do a 95 240-r33 cluster guide, i could do a 97 240's

but our setups would be very diffrent. and a s13 would be a whole other world.

I'm gonna hijack this thread just a LITTLE cause i'm gonna forget to search all the RB threads when i get back(gotta hook up with friends tonight)

Is it possible to have cruise control with an RB swap into a 240? I've read it's almost a hit or miss to have cruise control in an SR setup 240.. But I haven't researched this yet on the RB. (sorry for asking and not searching but I always forget when I get home from work to look my questions up) :(
