Hey guys,

Personally i find the Ceffy interior a boring and dated place to be. So, in the quest for change (assuming i dont sell my car) I have contemplated spicing things up a little in there. However, I have heard of people putting R32 dashes in Cefiro and was wondering how hard it was? Is it a straight fit? Lotsa mucking around? Do the door trims line up? Sigh so many questions :P

Bam

I have a spare cefiro dash if anyone wants it. it has a big bubble in the parcel tray ontop. but it has the climate control and mirror thingies.

These dashes are not too hard to take out.

Say if anyone wants to take my dash along to a wrecker to see if it lines up with an r32 one just let me know.

its in sydney.

The one I got was quoted at a smidget over a hundred to buy. Shipping I don't know, but I'm guessing about $150 with taxes n stuff... I don't know exactly, all I know is I want one lol. If its anything under $400 its worth it, coz I mean you'll be looking at it every time you step into your car...

As for volume... not really the wrecker dosen't make any concessions regardless of the number of items I buy.

the one in the pics has had a leather retrim to match the interior colour of the ceffy. Apparently there's no mods necessary but you lose a fog light switch and a couple of other switches. They have to be relocated somehow.

I can email the dude and get detailed instructions.

As for getting the dash I'll give the wrecker a call on monday and see if he can get you one too. He then sends it to my agent who packs it in the next container we bring down to melb, unpack then post to perth I guess...

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
