Hey guys,

Looking at converting my Cefiro to manual handbrake (handbrake setup initially, then will do manual gearbox another weekend).

Which parts of R32 handbrake cable do I need/

Do I need:

Just the single cable from the handbrake lever, up to where it joins the other 2 cables

or

As above, PLUS the two individual cables that run accross to the hubs ?

Have searched, no avail.

I'll be taking pictures during the swap, and hopefully can make a writeup for this section, to go in stickies.

Yep. Look up some Cefiro interior pics, the manual Ceffies just use a handbrake lever in the centre console, which is shorter, the auto ones use a pedal (where the clutch pedal would go) and a release lever on the centre console (which is taller & longer in the auto's).

Got a manual centre console in a different trim, I'll do what I did with my main project, rip off the trim and apply the new trim over it. Because the auto console lid is longer/narrower, you can just take that stuff off, and tuk it in a little on the manual console without even cutting it.

I'll post pics of that too when I get around to it.

At the moment the Ceffy is sitting halfway across the driveway on a funky angle, with no crank angle sensor working :)

      Powder coating wheels

      I'm interested if anyone agrees with what you've said, and can give a good reason. Temperature of powder coating should be below any temperature you'd use to alter the wheel structure.  Powder coat typically 200 to 250. Annealing if that's what people are claiming would be occuring, starts at 300, and depending on the alloy, can need even up at 400+.   That's the only part I can think of that could cause an issue that people are believing it's from the rim losing hardness and becoming too soft.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Negative probe should be on the cars chassis. Positive on the wire.   Start as said above by unplugging everything (unplug the lights, and switches. Now at the switch, there is a wire from the fuse, to the switch, so out your positive on that terminal. It should read open circuit. If it reads something, especially a stupid low value, the short is somewhere between the fuse and the switch. If that's fine, now put the positive probe on the wire that goes to the headlight (at the switch plug). If it reads stupid low, the fault is from the switch, to the headlight.   Another quick test, is take the whole LED light setup from the left, and plug it into the right side, does it still blow the fuse? If you put the right hand side led light setup on the left hand side wiring, does the left hand side wiring now blow?  If the blowing fuse swaps from right to left doing this, your LED lights are the issue.

      Anyone know if it's a problem to powder coat forged alloy wheel centers (Rays/Volk GT-C). some say it's bad and can damage the alloy, some say it's not a problem.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Hey guys, I'm reviving an old post but I'm finally getting around to working on this now. I removed the battery to get a better look at the wires and i traced the wires from the headlight to the fuse box in the engine bay, but the wiring looks fine? The wiring for the R/H headlight is 3 wires and then is bundled up with the large diameter wire that goes underneath the fuse box. I didn't take it apart yet. I know you said that its a short circuit somewhere between the fuse box and the headlight. But could it be the headlight switch on the dash? Also, i pulled out my multi-meter and set it on the Ohms, but i'm not sure where to put the negative probe and the positive probe.
