this can be continued in the calendar thread, although ive sent hostile a PM. I do appologise again that you never got last years. I make no money out of these, so its out of my pocket to give the free ones of the 2010 calender to those that missed out, but im more than happy to do that, and I stand by my word.

BACK TO THE PHOTOS!! :)

chad, what polish/wax do you use? whatever it is, keep using it!

Funny thing is i really don't look after the paint on it, I rarely wash it and when i do wash it I use one of those brushes at the car wash. The day I took it to the EHP show i just washed it and drove down there then used some Meguiar's waterless spray detailer and it came up a treat :D

Oh! and the bonnet was re-sprayed not long ago so its still nice and shiny.

the photo at EXHP was photo enhanced to bring out the shine a bit. Megs Stuff works a treat either way. (or Mothers)

never use a car wash brush, its loaded with sandy bits and filth.

    • Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.
    • Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.
    • It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
    • OK...so dumb question to check....do the hi beams actually come on when the push the stalk to engage them (keeping in mind your headlight switch must be at ON as well)
    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear
