HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Does anyone out there know how to install a HID Kit into my s13 its a xenon brand (i think thats how its spelt)

and also, I'm wanting to get my rear traction arms installed too :cheers:

thanks!

Anyone???? :D

Anyone???? :D

there is a howto guide on the forums here somewhere. basically you connect the hid transformer to the pwer source on the light circuit, mount the transformer somewhere safe and then run wires back to your existing headlight pods. takes a few hours, longer if you dont know how to remove and remount lights

or you could take it to an auto electrician and get them to do it

-D

i took mine to auto perfection was done in 1 hr :D

its stored down south where i live so auto perfection is too far :cheers:

and its pretty much a rego'd track car so i dont want to drive it much on the roads if i can help it :banana: cops wouldnt be to friendly towards it haha

im not to keen on touching the electrics but i might have to drive it down somewhere.

anyone recomend a auto electriction down south? somewhere near mclaren vale/seaford/noarlunga/christies area?

thanks

i got a gtr power fc on my r33 and was wondering does anyone have a gtst one they would want to swap, the likely hood of there being sumone is pretty low but just thought id ask lol

whats it run like with the gtr fc fitted?

madaz told me it wasnt idleing properly did you try diffrent lag timeing?

Kye, MattyT knows one from down south who's also a mobile service......PM him

And from all accounts he charges through the ass for f**k all work. :)

Apparently his dad @ The workshop is the man to see. Cant remember what the name of the company was though.... Ill send him an SMS and find out.

Anyone???? :P

As for the traction arms.... jack car up on stands, unbolt, remove arm, adjust new arm to same length of factory arm, replace in reverse order, get wheel alignment.

That's not hard at all, Today Ive installed my HICAS lock bar, Rear camber arms, alloy cradle locking collars, solid diff mounts, Kazama tension rods, steering rack spacers and a solid steering bush. Most of the shit goes back in the same way the factory shit came out.

Curious as to why you bought traction arms though?

hey guys does anyone know how to adjust the steering wheel on an R32???

i got my boost gauge put in the other day and they had to take the panel where the headlights switch is off coz of where i wanted the gauge and they must of adjusted the steering wheel coz it sits too low now and i cant see the top of my speedo and rev meter as its now too low.

i know you can make the steering wheel go in and out but that doesnt help i need it to go up more..

can anyone help me???

There is one in willunga, directly opposite to the CFS. Sapphiregraphics seems pretty knowledgeable, he may be able to give you a hand, im thinking of getting a Xenon light kit for my R33 soon, so i would mind having a look either or lending a hand on my day off.

Wouldnt he need traction arms to adjust the bump steer on the rear?

Rear bumpsteer would be controlled by adjusting the roll centre more than anything.

Traction rods allow adjustment to how much toe is given to the rear wheel under suspension compression.... ie transition after a clutch kick etc. Only other reason is they replace the rubber bushes with rose jointed/spherical joints.

Just curious as traction rods would usually be the last thing to do in a long list of things... Rear camber arms, HICAS removal or rear toe arms if non HICAS, diff mounts/cradle bushes or locking collars/sway bars etc.

hey guys i just thought i might share my experience, on my way driving to shops i spoted my first R35 GTR on hanson road it absolutely looks awsome in real life, and sounds f****n unreal nothing like the old RB engines totaly different sound i took this photo out of my old mans car, if i had my car i wouldve tried and give it a go and c how much i loose by lol heres the photo, I WANT ONEEEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers for that. I just got Ikeya formula ones myself, awesomely made and very tough, but thinking of changing to cusco as they have the dust covers. Will go Ikeya Lower control arms later, but don't really know anyone in adelaide who has the knowledge to adjust the roll centre correctly.

hey guys, im helping my sis look for a new daily...

preferably a sedan/wagon. approx, good on petty $2k

anyone know of anything going ??

cheers

i think kietz has a 31 for sale. if i had the $2k i woulda bought it

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
