Good start, 8 paid already. Lets hope that the other guys do not let us down. It would only take one person to mess this up. Can someone give the others a nudge to let them know that we are waiting for them? The quicker we all get this paid the quicker we will get our headlights!

Well hopefully i can redeem my poor form from pulling out from the group buy... I received my headlights last week and as i suspected the HIDs have been removed... However the ballasts are still there..

The headlights are extremely plug and play if you have the factory HIDs still there...

Im happy to help any Melbournians with installing their headlights once they receive them

Good news, so everyone is paid up! Hopefully we can get these shipped now. Well done everyone it would only have taken one non payment to mess this up.

Hopefully we will be starting a discussion on installation really soon. Any idea how long they may take to fit?

I suppose the worst case scenario is that all 11 of us collectively chip in approx $50 each to buy the extra pair. We then put it up on SAU for sale and once sold, the proceeds be divided 11 ways. Its a hassle but may be the way to go if we don't have a 12th person.

hey is it too late to get in on this? are you guys getting a spare set? if so i would like to buy..

Hi there,

It is not too late to join in itpesaf....we need one more order for a set of v35 coupe headlights

Welcome to the group buy... prices, product website link etc are listed above. For the v35 coupe, there are either chrome or black housings to choose from. http://page14.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/s249472633 (use google translate on this link).

Please email Jeese Streeter [email protected] (our contact in Japan who we are getting the deal through), and let him know you are in and get a quote for your set delivered via your preferred shipping method. Payment is a two stage process, first to enable Jesse to purchase the product and secondly to enable Jesse to deliver to product to you.

Let us know where are you located. If we can pair you up with someone else, you will save some cash on shipping costs.

For air delivery, the cost without pairing is approximately $510 per set. With pairing, $20 - $30 cheaper.

The difference between air delivery (4-6 days) and sea delivery (6-9 weeks) is approximately $50.

There is no price difference for the black or chrome housing.

Let us know if you have any other queries.

Cheers,

Keith

Don't let the pressure of 11 others get to you! Seriously though I think if you saw photos of our cars afterwards you would kick yourself if you did not make a purchase.

I really think this mod makes the cars look more modern like a lot of newer cars with them fitted.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
