not much of a update,just done a few silly bits,ie put front bumper on,gave the car a clean,as was really dirty
Stuck on my digi dash its a etb dd2 one,all the other bits work,but cant get the petrol gauge to work,was saying n/c,found the wire for it and plugged it up to the original nova wire,blue with a thin black strip,but says zero now,but put a jerry can in and still the same,ive got the original tank,is the something else you need to put inline to get it to calculate the fuel
Cheers

just spoke to etb who make the dd2 dash,the said i need to measure the resistance of the float,on empty and full.anyone know that as aint got a scooby about
Right little update my mate txted me yesterday saying I have a few parcels at his work,went over there after I finished work,they was my new wheels raceline rl7's,couldn't wait to get home and fit them (ain't been near the car for a few weeks maybe more lol),slapped them on just need to run a 5pm spacer on the back as just touching my coilover spring,might phone Mark at gaz,see if they make thinner springs,only got a few pics,nothing special as couldn't get the car outside as rear brakes have seized on,will upload the ones I got later,still need to get my f28 oil seals and a water leak,on my todo list
what size tyre have you got on your new wheels?
pics needed of your progress dude. :)
They are 195 50 15,why you ask mate will get pics up asoon as I get home
what offset? i tried my softstars back on my nova and have got 205/40/16 tyres. they rub on the coilover spring and hope 195's will cure it. just interested in your wheel setup to hopefully find mine will be ok. lol
They are et49,had comp mo's on there before,which was 16" still needed spacers tho,they had 205 on the back just touched the coilover when jack up,as the beam was free,but as soon as I dropped it back on the floor it cleared by about 3 or 4mm,my 195 did just double check jacking the rear beam up and down,as the car will be holding it's own weight,if that makes sense lol
yeh that makes sense. i have tried it on the ground with the 205's and it still rubs. i still want to get new tyres for better grip so ill be going 195, will just be the added benefit if i dont need the spaces.
thanks for the info.
Thats alright mate we are all here to help,the 195 should give you some more room,but you might need spacers as every nova is different,had a few now.to find out lol
Here is the pics,didn't get time over the weekend as it was my boys 1st
