got coil packs changed over from a mechanic, got the car back and the tacho is going crazy! mechanic says it is the instrument cluster/needs to be changed over with a new set (i have another set so it doesnt worry me) but i just wanted to know wtf it could be?

even when the car is just on but not started it goes past redline all the way it can go and back again, its like there is some kind of electric current making it go crazy?

it clearly doesnt work at all and its jumping all over the place, thank god i drive an auto.

any help would be great thanks!

I know this isn't the exact same problem as you but with my old gemini when I changed it over to electronic ignition it sent the after market tacho crazy. The ignition book mentioned it needed some form stabalizer kit for to give proper tacho reading. Maybe talk to an auto elec.

also another thing that could be related (no idea i dont know anything about car electronics) is my front left door speaker isnt working? i have pioneer splits hooked up to an amp. im hoping its just a loose wire or something.

hey mate,

the speaker not working wud be another totally unrelated problem.check your wiring,if the other channel on the amp is still working fine then your amp should be fine (hopfully) so it should just be a wiring isue.also check the connections on the back of the speakers (inside the doors).

    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
