jeremy Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 once you get it done and finished post pics, and if it looks decent I would consider it, but I don't see how it it possible to make that look visually appealing. Quote
z34_nut Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 that is done very well! but i am a fan of anologe gauges, i guess thats just me. Quote
Cutlass88er Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 O M G :shock: , I want one!!! Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I'd really like to put one of those in my Grand Prix. Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 I'd really like to put one of those in my Grand Prix. Send it my way and I'll hook ya up.. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Very cool, did you take a different approach than Steve? Steve modified the cluster to fit the car. The pics look like you modified the car to accept the cluster. Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Shawn, the more BaddFlash and I talked on Yahoo, the more we realized our minds think alike, lmao.. I saw some progress pics of his, and wondered how in the HELL he got into my house and stole my ideas!! lol Quote
Euro Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 damn thats hot! IDK im still a fan of my UB3 analog guage package option! Quote
Jamz Posted February 22, 2005 Report Posted February 22, 2005 Thats cause in that pic I hadn't tapped the wires into the DIC, that is now done. Is it a big crack across the windishield ? Quote
Baddflash Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Posted February 23, 2005 that is done very well! but i am a fan of anologe gauges, i guess thats just me. I really am to, generally I hate digital guages, but the fact that they're digital analog is what sold me on trying them plus having the 6th guage. Now that they're in I wouldn't go back to the Z34 cluster for anything and at this point I'm the only one with them. The Z cluster will probably just go in my other Lumina to replace it's badly stripped guage cluster, unless someone is willing to give me $50 for it. Quote
Baddflash Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Posted February 23, 2005 Very cool, did you take a different approach than Steve?Steve modified the cluster to fit the car. The pics look like you modified the car to accept the cluster. I went a very similar yet completely different route as Steve. We both modified a base Lumina dash to accept the components of the UB3, but did it in 2 totally different ways. The final results should look very much the same off but very different when in operation, as I understand it. Mine looks as close to the stock cutty dash as possible, where Steve I think is using different idi lights and placement of components. Externally it is a Stock Lumina housing only the components inside are different. Other than wiring I modified nothing on the car, I'm not sure what you're reffering to? Quote
Baddflash Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Posted February 23, 2005 Thats cause in that pic I hadn't tapped the wires into the DIC, that is now done. Is it a big crack across the windishield ? Yes that is a big MF crack, thanks to a rock going 100mph. It's getting replaced before the car gets painted but no sooner cause I want a perfect windshield when the paint is done and don't feel like wasting money. Quote
J Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 well start producing them bitched plug and play and they will sell!!!!! Again that looks fantastic, better then i would have thought. now i want one i'm too much of a pussy to rip my car apart and try that type of shit Quote
Baddflash Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Posted February 23, 2005 The Cutty cluster would not fit well.....that's all I'm gonna say This is my spare UB3 which will get swapped in if I can't get the mileage reset on the other one. This one only has 165,000kms vs. 285,000kms , I'd rather be under than over. My UB3 vs. Stock The buttons are temp. under the HU cause I can't find a good solution and won't knowingly copy someone. Although if I use a different OHC would it still be copying. :? Quote
JoroCorona Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 I think I'm gonna try getting the cluster out of a 1990 Couger and mod that into my dash. That would be too sick. And use window tint to make the numbers and stuff blue instead of green. That would be tight. Quote
Baddflash Posted February 24, 2005 Author Report Posted February 24, 2005 OK heres the wiring. First pin is the Cutty UB3 second is the Lumina UB3 C1- D4 C2-C9 C3-D1 C4-D13 C6-D3 C7-D2 C11-C3 C13- MUST BE ADDED - ALDL connection C14-D6 C16-D11 D1-C2 D2-C11 D3-C16 D4-C15 D5-D16 D10-C3 - DID NOT WANT THE CLUSTER DIMMING SO NOT CONNECTED D11-C13 D12-C7 D13-C5 D15-D5 D16- MUST BE ADDED - CONSTANT 12V Quote
Hairdo12 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 best info yet, im back to the jy on saturday morning to get the container for a lumina cluster so i can swap the parts from the ub3 into that without destroying my current cluster. i hope to get mine in asap Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 That cutlass ub3 is awesome... mark my words... by summer, the grand prix will have that. I wonder if it would fit? Quote
Rabbi Posted February 25, 2005 Report Posted February 25, 2005 is that just the standard digital dash off a 90 cutlass supreme?? Quote
