I am going to try relocating my horn to a button on my dash, since after installing my quick release kit I cant get the damn horn wires and the actual horn to fit in its hole. Just wondering where I would find the wires so I can hook them up to a momentary button???

Ummm aren't you basically answering your own question?

You said you can't get the horn wires to fit in the hole for your steering wheel. Then use that wire? Trace it back to it's postion in the loom and join into that

Well I cant use the ones in the steering wheel cause i cant loop them to the dash obviously. In the hub adapter this is one wire, is this a power wire? I guess i am going to have to take the whole boss kit off to get to the wire then.

Yeah easiest way to do it. Pull the steering column surround and steering wheel/boss kit off and try and locate the wire on the loom.

Run that wire to button. Earth the other side to chassis.

Do you have a photo of what the actual problem is? Not sure what the problem is that's causing it not to fit in the first place. Or is the horn button to loose?

EDIT: Ahhh never mind. Re-read the first post and it makes sense now. Hopefully won't be to hard to locate the horn power wire when you can see everything

Yeah thanks. The button just pushes on but there is so little room behind, the wires just spring back and push the button back out. Stupid quick release kit needs more room. I thought about not having a horn, but out of the 2 days of driving without a horn I dont think I could live without it since there are so many bad drivers out there!

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
