oh well john you're not the only one :) last skidpan day in melb i came out and lost my old front bar... haha. Can take a toll on the car..

mindflux -- there are like relays and things in a separate box (i think) which you could look at. I know in my 33 there are fuses in the back for LHS and RHS headlight, then there are a couple of doovas in the engine bay listed a "LHS healight" and "RHS headlight" in another fusebox for some reason Even the actual light stalk can have probs which causes the lights to act funny. Autoelec will charge you a couple of hundred at least to fix it.

fully its never ending, got home and felt like selling it, i think im gonna flog the kit off, and get a stock body kit again, when i get some spare cash, or consider a genuine plastic do luck kit from the states

Fark John... Keep your chin up! Your car looks awesome ATM... Pre Skidpan that is... Don't go back to stock!!!

Plastic kit sounds nice though...

yeah know the feeling.. kits can be bitches.. this is my 2nd front bar, and when i get the sideskirts fitted my second lot of them. While being low looks shithot and it handles better, sometimes you gotta wonder. Even with plastic you'll scratch the shit out of the paint and crap.

also mindflux.. just buy a multimeter ($20) and learn how to use it :) That will at least allow you to isolate the problem. You basically just stick the probes at different points and check you're getting voltage at each point. Soon as you find the point where there isn't any voltage anymore that is your prob.

well the box is generic and can vary depending on the options shipped with your car so you might not necessarily have all of them.

you *have* taken the bulb out and checked it haven't you? Bulbs are $7 from anywhere basically. Its always good when you check and it is the bulb, and you go "phew".

I had light probs in my old r31.. cost me $250 or something to get fixed, just for some simply shitty problem.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
