So how much work did it take to get the 350z dash to fit?

DreamN · 03-03-2008, 05:11 PM

^ same question

Jgrand03 · 03-03-2008, 05:14 PM

same question and what door panels are you gonna throw on if any to make it look decent

Ronald_Mcdonald · 03-03-2008, 05:19 PM

Please take that mesh stuff out of the grill.

Please.

jdizzy204 · 03-03-2008, 05:29 PM

whoa, vqhr turbo eh? are you planning on trying to keep the drive by wire or u gonna convert to a throttle cable?

titaniumbmx · 03-03-2008, 05:36 PM

the mesh is already gone the dash fit with barely any mods but the gauges dont work after the swap because the signal is different from the aem ems. the door panels from the 240 dont look bad you need to make a filler piece to go from the a pillar to the dash though. also for everything to fit right you have to modify the dash brace from the 350 to bolt into the 240 and you need the 350z steering column... long story short on the dash its not worth it unless your making a showcar. i took it out because the gauges wont work.

mesh looks gross but an intercooler peaking through looks amazing.

muddafakka · 03-03-2008, 06:14 PM

Damn it sucks about the Z dash. I was hoping you could get it to work, it would be really neat.

it does work its just alot of work. like a few minutes of welding a few hours of molding and a few thousands dollars worth of wiring to make the gauges work.

titaniumbmx · 03-03-2008, 06:19 PM

in fact i still have most of the stuff for the dash if anyone wants to take a crack at it.

he said that dirt is already gone, dash looks like it will be sick when all put together

edit: just saw your not using it, sucks

berz · 03-03-2008, 06:38 PM

nice set up. u will have 1 bitchin ride

titaniumbmx · 03-03-2008, 07:55 PM

im glad i didn't totaly fail on making it look decent. thanks guys

Big Zee · 03-03-2008, 08:01 PM

that dash looks awesoem in it, for tha gauges not workign just make a resistor bax and it should correct the signal to what you need

titaniumbmx · 03-03-2008, 08:12 PM

the aem unit produces a totaly different type of signal. to make it work i would have to have the entire 350z wire loom adapted to run the 240 and i would be using the stock 350z ecu so no programability and a stupid speed limiter. its not worth it.

an_orange_s2k · 03-03-2008, 08:51 PM

wow cant wait to see the end result of this thing

Bushido · 03-03-2008, 09:38 PM

why not just mount aftermarket gauges in place of the factory gauges and keep the z33 dash?

kuruptR · 03-03-2008, 11:46 PM

looks like a sluaghter house floor

titaniumbmx · 03-04-2008, 12:20 AM

yeh we're not very good at keeping the garage clean. or remembering to drain fluids before we pull engines...

MY PRECISOUSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

irax · 03-04-2008, 01:58 AM

how well does that z dash fit?
i thought about using it for my vq35de swap but the front end conversion i did was already pretty out there so I decided to use my stock s14 dash with s15 cluster.

titaniumbmx · 03-04-2008, 09:42 AM

it fits as well as can be expected the 350zs firewall is realy tall so leg room is an issue once everything is attached on the driverside the passenger is fine though. if you leave off the under panel that the fuel door button is on then its doable. also you need to heat the main plastic dash piece up with a heatgun and make the corners stay about 2" down where they meet the door panel. its alot of work to make it not look half assed...

thats actualy what im doing but not in the z dash i guess im using the aem 16 in 1 thing i haven't totaly decided yet i might just buy all analog
gauges and fill in some space that removing all the stereo/climate control left.
