Ok so guys,

Ive got a few problems Ive been trying to fix but your local mechanic isnt really a wealth of knowledge when it comes to a 350GT, We're dealing with an 03' 350GT coupe, but with 06' taillights and headlightls, my questions are as follows,

1. My right reverse light has gone out and I think I need to replace the globe, when I take apart the boot lining the cabling run directly into the body of the car toward my taillight, how do I get to it?

2.My cigarette Lighter doesnt work and hasnt for a while, being a jap import I havent got a clue where the fuse box would be, does the one next to the battery in the engine bay have the fuse for it? because I cudnt find it, or is there another box? and where is it?

With reverse lights, is just one out or both?

May be reverse light switch which is under car, ontop of transmission (pain in the ass to get to)

It may also be a fuse which from memory is either inside the fuse box in engine bay or one of the ones behind battery

TO get to the cabling in the rear

1. Took out boot floor mat

2. Grip the boot plastic seal thing (that your boot closes on) and gently lift from one end and continue to pull off

3. Remove the plugs (2 i think) from the lining (below the boot plastic seal you just took off)

4. Now on each side there are another 2 plugs you need to remove (big ones)

5. now once all plugs are removed you can take out the long liner (just the one covering the back of the lights)

6. you will need to take out light to change bulb (3 10mm nuts) need to be removed and then there is a seal that the wires rung through in the body work, push it in towards the lights (and unplug the connector to the cables)

7. take out headlight

There are 3 fuse box on the 350GT.

1st: just beside the battery

2nd: it's in the same compartment with the battery, but you'll have to take the plastic cover off the battery compartment, and take the plastic cover in front of the winscreen (just 2 pins)

3rd: beside the Acceleration paddle, on the right side. There's a small plastic door which you can take out to access it, if not you have to take the whole plastic out.

The tail lights, you will have to take out all the plastic cover too. Just strip everything in the boot near the light area

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
