Hello out there in 4 door land.

I have a 1988 A31 ceff, however mine has a 280Km/Hr dash in it. Has anyone ever seen one of these before in a Cefiro in place of the usual 180Km/Hr dash. Im just interested as mine seems to be the only one with this kind of dash in it. Could it of been taken from another car? I have always though that all the A31's were speed limited to 180km/hr from factory.

Mine is a RB20DET (was a RB20DE from fac) and is a factory manual too. If anyone has any info on this it would be great, im thinking its just an option you could get from when you bought a Cefiro from the show room. Here is a pic of the dash.

Yea works good, had the car around a year and a half now, got it with 51000km on the clock so it had definatley been wound back before it came to AUS 2 years ago.

I just though it might interest some fellow Ceff owners out there, i have seen quite a few Ceff's over here in SA and everyone has had the 180km/hr dash.

Hits speed cut at 190km/hr accroding to my dash :teehee:

Sweet!!

One thing thou...my cefiro was factory auto converted to manual like most and still shows the various P, N, R, 123 etc inbewteen the speedo & revs, the long rectangular area. BUT it appears that yours has the auto section grey'd out / covered. You can see the outline of it in your pic so wondering if it is a auto dash but had the 'auto display' removed......

Mine was never an auto, its a factory 5 spd manual with a RB20DE (says it on the blue plate in the engine bay), i have heard on the grape vine that only 5% of A31 Ceff's came with the Manual box from Factory (probably a load of BS though)

Its the other way around. They add the auto indicators to the middle if its going to be auto and just leave it if its going to be manual.

Mine is the same.

your clearly both freaks.

Oookkkkaaaayyyy...... very insightful there mate LOL :unsure:

Konect - Yeah true they slot the display for the auto's in that area....but that said.... wonder if it is easy to source that 'middle plate' so to replace & remove the auto crap.... i know it is a negligable thing but would make a difference having it there since most are converted IMO....

Hhhmmm might see if it can be sourced...

Yeah thats what i was thinking too. Aren't there a few people on this board from SE Asia with Ceffies? Perhaps they could shed some light on this. (And send us all one).

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
