Due to some little dirtbag waste of space throwing something at my car tonight, I'm now in need of one new Cibie fog light for an M35 aero front bar.

Would anyone have a spare? I'm betting its going to be just under insurance threshold...

Thanks,

Ryan

Damn Ryan, that sucks!

These are very difficult to source mate; Ive been trying for quite a while to find some. They only appear in Nissans listings as part of a complete bumper assembly ($2500)pinch.gif No individual part number. And becasuse they are a "dealer option" they are difficult to even find in FAST.

I have a link that I'll dig up for you tomorrow; maybe you'll have some luck.

Cheers, Dale.

That'd be great Dale, thanks!

Complete bumper assembly seems a bit excessive, but I am insured, and I'm that anal that I'd probably do that if I had to.

its a shame you didnt catch the guy :(

he may have suffered a 'fall' during the chase.

anyway, they DO appear on IM from time to time, i hope you find something

Thanks Iain.

Was thinking of trying to find some spot lights the same size. I don't really need fog lights in Adelaide, I'd get more use out of spotties.

Will keep an eye on IM too. Have Streeter getting me some stuff at the moment.

Ah ok. Is there a specific one you'd suggest, or you've seen? Otherwise I'll just go through the Narva and Hella catalogues. Pair of HID driving lights would be heaps better for me than a pair of fog lights.

something like this might work for you

http://www.hidlighting.com.au/HID_Driving_Light.html

http://www.modyourcar.com.au/body-styling-lights-driving--fog-lights-cat2_36_352

there was a company around a few years ago called xenall but google yeilds nothing.

youll need something about 4" size to fit in.

there are a few decent and not-expensive kits around. if i get a spare $200 i might get a set for my car and flog off my factory lights

Looks good. Might get a price on these: http://narva.com.au/products/browse/compaccompac-hid

Dad gets trade, and they'll be easier to return if they're no good.

Seems like a better option than hunting down an original fog light, and I'd say it won't be _too_ expensive.

do yourself a favour and get some of these.

http://www.theretrofitsource.com/product_info.php?products_id=249

complete with quality HID kit for 170USD, plus, you can also specify your current globe type and get it will come with Plug'n'play connections.

I think they're too small though?

Went out and measured mine, they're 110mm across, and those Blazers are 65mm. Looks like they'd be easy to fit though!

What about these from the same site? http://www.theretrofitsource.com/product_info.php?products_id=125 Seem to be the perfect size?

I'm going to get a price on these, since I know I can get them locally: http://narva.com.au/products/detail/compac-100-hid-driving-lamp-kitbr-12-volt-35w-100mm-wide/noheaders/1/?KeepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=720&modal=true&parent=driving-fog-lamps-popup-layout

Hey Ryan I'm in the same boat mate my right spottie got smashed on my m35 aero driving past a dude mowing his lawn! Threw out a rock, What are the odds? Got a quote from just jap for $ 300 new and a quote from my local Nissan dealer $ 585! Let me know if you find something cheaper

$300 new doesn't sound that bad really.

I priced up a few different sets of spotties, all were around the $100-200 mark. I was thinking of going HID, but they're around the $1k mark! :O

There are some good ones in the links above.

I've just taken mine out so I'm going to start measuring up and see what fits. I was looking at these: http://narva.com.au/products/detail/compac-100-hid-driving-lamp-kitbr-12-volt-35w-100mm-wide/noheaders/1/?KeepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=720&modal=true&parent=driving-fog-lamps-popup-layout

I found out those, the HID versions, are $1k, but you can get the non HID version for around $100, and a HID conversion kit for $90. As long as they fit thats what I'll do, just need to measure up.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
