hi guys i purchased a nismo 320 kph speedo for my 32 gtr and went to install it and it will fit but the warning lights are in different spots so i wasnt sure if it would work so i went to remove the speedo itself and install in my cluster, It is quite different and wont fit as it has an electrical ribbon connection that my one doesnt have, I have been trying to search on the subject but cant find the answer, if I just plug the new one in will it work or will there be issues?

Either find that guide as BWRGTR has said, or you can move the cables in the connectors on the harness. I worked it out a couple of years ago and wrote it down, but won't be home for over a week and a bit.

You can work out which pins need to be moved where just by working off the rear of each unit.. Just remember the speed signal out is polarity conscious.

Why can't he just remove the speedos from the two clusters and swap them? As r32 speedos are cable driven and not electric like the 33 onwards

the design between the two clusters (early vs old) is different, so once the speedo is out of one, its not a direct fit into the other unless the speedo sensors is swapped.. also possible to re-pin the connectors at the back which i have done in the past but the swap saves messing around with all the pinouts

the problem was you got a late model 32 cluster for an early model 32. they are different between years. and you can't just swap the speedo's between them as in is the 320kph and one is the 180kph so it won't work obviously.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
