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.

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
