Hi,

I have just installed a hybrid fmic to my r33, but now the front fog/indicators on the front bar doesnt clear the cooler, so i cant get it on. And the cooler is mounted as far back as possible. Has anybody here had this prob, and how did u overcome it? thanks

yeh encounted the same problem..just took the indicators out completely and got sum small indicators n mounted them in the gap with some mesh to cover up the gaps..

hope that helps.

btw, you could also try shaving of the plastic behind the indicators if its only just not fitting in. that didnt seem to work with mine though, still stuck out a tad and hence why i went with the smaller blinkers.

i have a standard front bar but had to trim out some of the fog light section and sealed it with silastic

Sweet. But when u trimed out the fog light, are the fogs still usable????

Thanks for the replies dudes!!!!!!!!

when i installed mine i had to trim the back end of the fog lights, the raised plastic bit surronding them from behind then it JUST fit on.

When u trimmed the back of the fog light did utrim it enough to make a hole in it??

nah there was no hole at all, around the back of it there is like a ridge that runs around the outside of the light, raised maybe 1.5cm i just trimed most of that flat.

this was on a series 1 front bar

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
