Hey guys,

since ive got a new bar and new lights start of the year, which some people prob seen them, very clear and shiney

people have complained about them being to bright etc or slighty pointed up

Ive tried to adjust them by the screws in the back, Does that help? lol

Or the screw in the side? or top? just wanna know the best way.

cars in the garage now with door shut and ive marked where they are, so i can adjust them and see if they move below the mark..

I'll search the forums now.. but if anyone knows now post up!

depends which way its out mate, as to which ones you adjust.

Ive heard good auto-elec's have some device that measures it to you can calibrate it correctly

Not sure as ive never actually seen it in person, but i was asking as i'll need to do mine in the near future and thats what i was told :(

I did mine a few months back. It adjustble by a screw (prob easier to use a socket) , but its tucked away in a very hard to reach place.

btw was your car on the SAU stand at autosalon with the super shiny s2 headlights?? and tinted foggies?

pull up about 30cm from a brick wall or a roller door that has some sort of horizontal lines, mark the wall where the light shines it will be a fairly definate line then move st8r back 10m and use the adjusters to bring the lights back to that position (make sure the ground is level). It is a pretty quick and easy way to get an accurate aim.... we used to do 100's of new cars as part of predelivery

      Rb25det neo issue tps voltage

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      OK, so, assuming that there is nothing wrong with either the original or new boost sensor, then it would seem that there might be something wrong in the loom wiring to that sensor. This is troublesome, because if that were true, then you might expect the problem to persist when the sensor was unplugged. But seeing as the voltage comes good when it is unplugged, it would suggest that the fault might (and I stress might) be right at the loom plug. Either that, or the fault might be at the ECU, on the line in from the boost sensor. When you unplug the boost sensor, that input at the ECU is isolated from the TPS sensor and can't affect it. This would be semi-bad, as an ECU problem is never welcome, but at least you'd know where the problem is and it might be fixable, or at least replaceable. Do you have Nistune, or any other way of looking at ECU data? I'd want to drive the car around with the boost sensor unplugged and see the TPS working properly, then not working properly with the sensor plugged back in. You're not trying to run more than ~18 psi either? Right? Because even with Nistune that can be difficult with the boost sensor connected. Just checking, in case it might have some bearing on the issue. It shouldn't cause the voltage situation you're seeing though.

      Then sell it and buy a BMW! I can totally relate to this (except the money part! ). I think for me I need to remind myself that I do enjoy the process and to stop being so damn impatient and eager to get it done. That just leads to frustration and broken stuff.  Built not bought. Wait.  Fixed, not fought? No ... Definitely fighting things. Definitely not fixed, I give up. Cars are pain.

      This week is the McLaren F1 GTR around Le Man.  I have a 3:48 ish I think (from memory) which is 2 secs off silver.  My issue is that I did a heap of the current daily race c around Le Man with the 787B first and switching to the McLaren is hard.
