If it has a factory tacho dash you can splice into the factory tach wire on the back of the dash, So is yours the chevy nova?, like to see pics if it is as i have only seen the AE82 style chevy nova.

Des Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 It should have a blueish coloured wire with a round plug on the end of it, It comes out of the distributor. Quote
Trev Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 probably an ae92 holden nova. Umm why would they make a Holden Nova in another country and then import it as a corolla nova? Have you never heard of the Toyota - Chevy Nova? AE82 Corolla seca - chevy nova: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-chevt-...1QQcmdZViewItem Quote

Trev Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 Well MOST people say they have a AE92 corolla/nova, And saying rebadged here in australia sounds alot like saying "imported as this, sold as this" yes it probably is the holden nova, But are you the owner to answer the question? Quote
Redwarf Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 my 1991 Nova (rebadged corolla here in australia) That says to me it's a Holden Nova. Now can we get back on topic? Quote

Des Posted February 14, 2007 Report Posted February 14, 2007 It shouldnt make to much of a diffrence with the distributor. Quote
