Hey all, i hav finally got my project car on the road yew, i crashed my old car bak in feburary this year which was a devastating time. So after getting my shit together i bought a shell which was in june and thats where the project begun, the car i bought had no running gear no interior or no wiring looms it was a bare shell, so countless nights and hours after work and on weekends i begun puttin it together with occassional help from mates and it was finally finished yesterday, the car has had a full respray aswell i am very happy with it and feel satisfied as kno i hav built the car from ground up and custimized it to my style. It was the longest 8 months oh how much i missed the sound of a spooling turbo it feels so good to be drivin my own car again lol anyways cheers for reading let me kno wat u guys think. Jarad

    • 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
