Will post some pics tomorrow when I take some - was too busy driving around today :wassup:

In other news, has anyone had issues with R32 headlights playing funny buggers? Mine tend to turn on one randomly sometimes (either one?!?!) then sometimes both... whats with that?

I put a thread in maintenance, but in case any of you Vic boys with 32s have encountered this problem, thought i'd mention it... my guess is a dodgy switch... anyway, the thread is below

Ronin, the headlights is an issue with the switch on the steering wheel. The way the switch is made it tends to screw up pretty easily in some production models. I have a step by step guide to fixing this (mainly involves taking steering wheel off n cleaning contacts on the switch) but its in japanese, I'll see if I can get you a rough translation.

I know they aren't hard to come by but I will sell copies of the full R32 GTR Workshop manual on CD Rom. They are in English and there is 804 pages in total.

As for the headlight problem, can't help you. Mine arrived with only one low beam but it was just a globe.

Danny - Seller put an alarm in for me :P

Mesh Mesh - It is a stock (100%) Aus delivered, black. Has 101,000 on the clock

Shan - that would be awesome if you could shoot that over; one of my friends can read japanese, so thats not an issue.

Does anyone have a centre console surround (that shiny plastic surround) that they want to sell me... and a passenger side sun visor (black)?

      Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though.

      215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.

      That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.

      V37 Alarm settings and what the buttons do.

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models?
