*HOW TO* Fit Cav / Calibra clocks into a Nova

[draper]

do you need mechanical or electronic clocks ?? or am i just being stupid

[Adam]

Was thinking of doing this myself, but was wondering if the speedo is accurate?
And, the fuel guage? Thats going to be way off as its calibrated for a astra/cavalier fuel tank/sender?

Like its accurate anyway. You never know it might be accurate with Cav dials?

[Adam]

Lol, well the standard clocks are accurate-ish.
I mean, they dont read 45mph when your doing 30mph.

Altho today i went past one of those "SLOW 30" light up LED signs, and it didn't light up even when i was doing about 39 on nova clocks lmao
Yet it goes off at about 34mph in my corsa(eletronically driven clocks)

Petrol guage is fine, can't see you having any probs with the speedo either, can't be any worse than the std speedo !!

So does a full nova tank(42L) just take it to about that on the guage? obviously it will never read full due to a smaller tank.

Nah, reads full when the tanks full, 1/2 when 1/2 a tank ect ... only thing is that it states 60l when full and 30l on 1/2, no big deal tho.

[Adam]

Ah right.

Shall go the scrappy and find a set of cable astra/cav clocks.

Speedo should be ok to, as long as there the 140mph ones.
Have fun !!!

Have any one put electric cav/calibra v6/turbo clocks on Nova?

They take speed signal in ABS, correct?
Does it work if take speed signal in digidash sensor?
Or is it have to put the ABS as well
