hey guys how yas all dong, well i just received my r32 gtr n1 headlights and i didnt realise until i went to autobarn to buy the h4 globes for them and one of the blokes their (michael) told me that one of my plastic screw holders were broken off which is the top one, like everyone normally has 4 bolts holding the gtr lights and they are 2 on the side, one on teh top and one on the bottom, now the top one is missing

now the question is will 3 bolts hold it in place or do yous wrecken i should get someone to make up a bracket for me, i know its nto a major problem but i want to be on the safe side

here is a pic i found of the forum of these n1 headlights just to show yous exacely what is missing, so please guys as many comments will do because i would rather do it now just before i install them becasue they are a flamin mongrel to take back off,

i called up my mate at autobarn and he said dont worry 3 bolts is excellent mate so what do yous guys think or what should i do to fix this problem,

cheers tony

3 bolts will be fine

Hey mate u sure are having a lot of problems with ya headlights lol. Just an idea - why dont u try not doing up the top bolt on the headlight that isnt snapped and see if u can wiggle it around. If it doesnt move then the broken one should be fine. Just an idea.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).

      ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.

      OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
