Hi there from Mike just joined and looking forward to learning more from the group on all things Skyline I’m a life long Nissan fan and currently driving a R34 gtt and loving life hope to catch-up soon and get to a meet cheers

tassie newbie Hi guys, Greetings from chilly Tasmania. I have owned my 89 GTR since 2005 and have regularly visited sau ,which I have always found to be very informative and quite often very amusing! Up until recently my GTR has been a daily driver and has been only lightly modded ( power fc, greddy dumps & front pipe, hi flow cat,Blitz Nur type R cat back exhaust) but the power bug has bitten and it is time to bite the bullet & do the dreaded turbo swap. Having already had the OEM turbos off to do the dumps ect (wish I could of afforded to do the turbos at the same time,, but budget didn't allow) I know what I am up against & will pre purchase several bottles of Bundy to help ease the pain & also ear plugs for my wife so she doesn't have to hear me lose my shit at Nissan engineers. Another job on the job list is to replace the Nissan candles they pass off as headlights with hids for the projector low beams & 4500k halogen globes for the mains.(yes I know they are illegal but I would rather see the mad bastard kamikazi wallabies that live down here, so hopefully I can avoid them before one of them imbeds themselves into my intercooler). When I tried to adjust the main beams I found that the adjusters were not working & when I removed the grey plastic covers I found the bevel gears inside had split (apparently a common problem) I have looked everywhere to find a fix or replacements but no luck, so my question is , does any of the knowledgeable people in sau land have a fix or know where to get replacements from? With many thanks in advance for any advice. Tazzilla
