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

    • Yes, well, keep in mind that the air is intake air, which equal boost + possible oil. If there is a fine deposition of oil/scunge that then gets hot and carbonises, it could look just like that. Probably shouldn't be leaking. Might just be normal for that product. Hard to know if it is relevant.
    • Wrapped up putting the motor back in today. I have a stainless flex turbo drain pipe like you see on cummins and that funny enough PRP started selling. I generally prefer these but sadly they come with a finite amount of times they can be bent before they snap. Took well over a week for a replacement to arrive.  I was able to prime the pump but I will more then likely wait until next friday to take it on its madden voyage. I also installed the nozzles for my direct port WMI setup but plugged the nozzle holders for now. I'll tube it with Swagelok SS tubing and fittings next chance I get. No rush, i'll be breaking it for a week or two anyways. 
    • I could definitely do some logs without the VCT enabled for sure. I believe we tried it on the dyno and it still spiked but wouldn't hurt to try again and have the logs    I might be able to use some metal cable ties and hold the gate open entirely, I'd need to see about that one.   What do we think about these marks on the cap of the actuator? This is where the two parts push together where the diaphragm spring is. To me they look like air has been sleeping past?? Specifically talking about those black stains above the lower rim/lip. They can be rubbed away as if it's just an exhaust stain.  
    • And if it still spikes, just for now, turn off VCT completely by disabling it OR simply unplug the solenoid. Just to rule out excessive exhaust pressure. I recall a video from Motive DVD about a decade ago, where Hawkins original single Garrett GTX3582 or so turbo had boost control issues sub 1.4bar of boost as well.   Food for thought? Is there anyway you can peg the WG completely open and/or dodgily not plumb it back into your exhaust system for testing purposes?
