Hi guys. I'm in the uk and have bought a speedo converter (kmh-mph) for my cefiro but cant find a wiring diagram. I know you don't use them but would anyone have any idea where I could find a wiring diagram to install the converter?

Not had any luck finding a wiring diagram. If this is just for MOT purposes it might be easier to just change the dials? Or you could go down the really pikey route and put sticky labels over them

Edit: Or just stick a GPS SatNav or camera detector in there and read the speed off that, which is what I have to do when I travel to Eire since I don't have KMs on the clock.

After closer inspection it looks like a mechanical speedo like the r32.. ? ? ?

Interesting, is yours a pre-facelift or post-facelift model (post-facelift has an L at the start of the VIN code)

Do they even make mechanical speedo converters?

Also, out of interest whereabouts in the UK are you? I've never actually seen a Cefiro on the road anywhere.

I'm pretty sure all cefiros are mechanical speedo. Some models (i think ones delivered to malaysia maybe) have both KMPH and MPH written on the dials.

Failing that, you should be able to take it to some instrument calibration shop and they could change the internal gearing inside the cluster so that the numbers will correspond to the desired speed.

My chassis number starts LA, R32 skylines take a mechanical speedo as far as I know. I'm from dorset, there are a couple of cefiro's over here you'll find most if you search on driftworks.com forum page.

....any pictures of yours?

I'll try the path of a r32 mechanical one then!! Seems the best bet so far.

Mine is still in Japan at the moment, only paid for it this morning.

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
