Did you take him to puppy school / training?

Finally back home for good. Can get stuck into the cars.

  So apparently the instrument panel lights on the triumph are purposely fused with the tail-lights as a warning to the driver to check the tail lights... but its not usually the fuse thats the problem, its the contact to the fuse. Need to get my dremel out tonight and also purchase a bunch of new globes. Fingers crossed theyre not some weird shitty sizes.

Narrator: but as it turns out, they were some weird, shitty sizes.
Actually they're not. I could actually purchase the globes from Bunnings (if they sold 12V globes).
I'm sure BA15 bayonet sizes are a British standard anyway...
What is annoying though, is that the brake lights are actually 12V 5W from factory, which is a joke, explains why I could hardly see them. But if I install 20W ones like the indicator, I'll be scared they melt the wiring if illuminated for too long haha oh well, won't be my problem (hopefully)

PS Martin buy this car.

I may or may not have a sizeable collection of new globes you can pick up a selection of from me

Leigh, so after ~1 month of ownership how does it compare to be back in a lightweight but less powerful chassis?

Yeah it's good, handles crazy good and brakes are awesome. 

It's cool having a new car with heaps of modern features with an old school feeling turbocharged engine & manual gearbox.
The turbo lag and when it hits makes it feel faster than what it is, which in a way is good for the street. Once I'm nearing the end of warranty will do some mods surely, but for now happy with how it is, maybe just get a catback exhaust soon.

All good. I bought what I needed for $11.Still got a gremlin where with one of the rear parkers plugged in, it prevents the brake light on the other tail light from working... :confused: I've got a homemade CAD wiring diagram from online, but doesn't really help narrow things down.

My $400USD venture into various crypto is now worth $570USD in under a month. Take that bank interest rates!

It's a bit confusing where values can be estimated/defined to USD, or altcoins against Bitcoin or Ethereum. So with bitcoin rising so fast, it looks like the altcoins are dropping, but against the USD they're increasing too.

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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)
