Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

I want led highbeams already. But they don't make any to fit r32s (yet) supposedly.

also I need to wire it up so my hid low beams stay on when high means are activated.

Led or hid? Led would be too dim

Yeah intercooler is huge. Bar has been hacked up to make it fit. Interesting on the led department ... only car I have seen to run led headlights was the holden effjay concept thing and it had a monstrous cooling system behind a 20ish watt single led

Here is another potato quality picture that shows how bright it really is, very spotlight-like beam, which combined with the HID lens lights I already have gives a very full spread. Even if I've only fitted one side so far.

Looks ok. Might have to find myself a second set of 33 headlights if they work out.

Longevity will be the deciding factor, these are cheap ones from eBay. Also, all led headlights like them use a tiny fan on the rear to cool the aluminium heat sink, I have run them for 5 mins in a go with no significant heating, but if the fan goes or lets moisture in they will probably die... Will keep you posted

    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car. 
    • lol the 2nd one boss, thank you for pointing this out. I feel as i spend more time here this intro message is some thing i will always make me laugh and shake my head at. Perfect Intro:  I have the vehicle  
    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
