I hope I've posted this in the right section. Looking for some insight into how I might fix this issue. 

I've included a video of the speedometer needle issue.

Some info on the car:

- 98 GTT converted to 6spd CD009

- Nismo A/T cluster from back when it was AT. This was working perfectly up with the CD009 until one day the needle started acting up. 

- shutting off the car and turning it back on usually fixes the problem but going full boost has a tendency to cause the speedo needle to lose connection (like 60% of the time). 

Tomorrow I will remove the cluster and inspect the plug in terminals for wear/corrosion and re-install to see if anything improves. I was wondering if it could also be related to the wheel sensors? 

 

Any advice would be appreciated

If that's where your speed signal is coming from, then yes, it could be. But, given that I can't see how the speed signal would be coming from the wheel sensors, it would seem unlikely.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
