Mal,
Your memory is not the best then. Here is your
email below which was received 20-11-2003. It would be good if you could replace
the parts sooner rather than later as I am ready to bolt in the
cluster.
Cheers,
Rob P
I'll have a
look to see if I can find anther glass/plastic cover for the
speedo ,,its a
810sss piece and I'm sure the glass cover was too because of
the trip meter
reset hole...
I'm blown away the reset dont work,,I would not have done
built/played with
it if it was shit..Lets blame the NZ post and I'll ask for
some refund for
the post shop,was the box in good shape when you got
it?.
That unit came up one day sitting in my garge ,,I thought id see
if 810SSS
gauges fit in a 510 housing,,
I painted all the needles to match
bolted it all up and never got around to
sorting the rest out, I thoink not
long after that I brought the bike shop
and never had time to do much
else.

Sorry I did not know about the trip
meter?.
I think i have anther 810SSS dash here I'll hunt
it out.
The ones you got in the 510 cluster are 810SSS
ones.
I've never parted out a C210,carnt see any reason
to do one?.

Mal,
Yeah, I got a cluster like
that off you. Remember it had a broken trip odometer that wouldn't
reset and a crack in the clear plastic that you said you would try and
find a replacement for? How's that going?
As for whether the mod I described earlier
fits, I only saw the assembly out of the vehicle, so you may be right -
maybe. The dials on this 180B SSS cluster are blue-faced and
rectangular, very unlike the one I bought off you. Your one had black-faced
round dials and a speedo to 240 Kph. I think your one was made from
Skyline C210 parts? Certainly yours is a better match in the 510 dash as it
blends so nicely only a fellow Ozdatter could tell it wasn't stock
:-P

NA PROBLEY WILL NOT FIT
I've only found W's in 810's...
But going by the parts you are saying is it
out of a 810 (200Kph speedo gives it away).
I think a 510 dash cluster I done with 810SSS
gauges went to ozzie?.

Hi all,
scored a 180B SSS motor on the weekend.
There is no "W" on the block number so I assume it is an earlier version
which means the sump should fit in a 1600 (510). It came with W53
(big port) head, twin "square-top" SU's ("with provision for an electric
choke" - said the seller) plus a blue airbox but no gearbox. The
guy threw in a Bluebird TRX 5-speed and the complete 180B SSS tacho dash
with 200km/h speedo and trip odometer, all for a very cheap
price.
Then he showed me an interesting dash mod
you can do with your 510 if you're not interested in keeping it
original. Around the dials of your 510 you will notice a
recessed rectangle moulded into the fascia. Cut out this recessed
part and insert a set of 180B SSS dials behind the fascia. Fits
like it was meant to be! The 180B SSS dials I have have a dark blue
background..nice.
By the way, how good is the TRX
5-speed box? I assume it's better or stronger than a Stanza
SSS, of which I have 2. Any idea whether the TRX box has closer ratios
than the Stanza SSS?
Cheers,
Rob P
