The reason why i ask is that i just bought mine and it has aftermarket ones installed. There is, however, a proper button which they are wired up to on the dash...

I have looked at photos of other 32gtrs and have not been able to identify where the standard ones are...

:P

In short, no.

But they are not so uncommon.

I didn't think they did, so do you know what the button is on the right hand side of the steering wheel above the rotating thingy which turns on the headlights and parkers?

They don't, but anyway.

The most common spot for the foglights in under the top section of the front bumper either side of the number plate. Usually the mesh screen for the interccoler/radiator cut out gets a couple of holes cut into it to fit the lights.

Do you know where they normally sit?

They sit right in front of your intercooler, on both sides, small ones.

There is a switch on the dash, its for fog lights and amber lights. Do a search on the forsale section, there had been a few pairs forsale lately.

Oh they might not be standard but definately a standard option.

No, they're definately not standard, but may be an option (but I really don't think?)

The switch you're talking about allows the park lights to be on when depressed with the ignition key removed and the car locked (for when parked in a dark or dangerous position).

yes and no. the ones pictured are a dealer option available at time of purchase. they may have even been fitted at the factory, or if not fitted at the dealer when sold. but they are not standard.

sorry guys.. i know this is an old post but i needed a bit of help. i was after some fog lights that would fit the spaces in my front bar pictured below. a pair would be nice but i dont mind just one and im after the really tacky looking yellow plastic covered ones.. any help would be great..

cheers, tushar

Why would you want to put fog lights in there? People usually leave it open for more air flow to the intercooler/radiator. If you want a fog light to be put in there, measure out how large the gap is and find a light to fit. I would assume it'll be hard finding some that fit perfectly though.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
