cheers Ewan, i think the 1st pic are just standard Series 2 lights? but the second one is perfect!!

basically they just have a chrome backing instead of the black, and it really gives the car a cleaner and different look.

if you have a look in the recent ACT postabout the $10000 4 door by KNYTESTORME, you'll see the pics of the chrome headlights....and a few posts from me bugging him for them :cheers: i'll attach a link from the thread.

i hit a roo in my old kingswood at about 80kph, cost me $39 to repair damage, you couldn't kill that car. only busted the headlight and cracked the indicator. the roo was gone when i stopped too, i was only 200m from my front gate.

canberra is probably the only city where you'd see roos jumping down the main roads. i've seen them on belco way, ginnindera drv, even barry drive. someone needs to cull the bastards to stop more things like this happening, it could really hurt someone if they weren't paying attention and hit one at full pace.

yeah man i saw somewhere (name escapes me atm, sorry) there was a fibreglass GTR front bar and front quarters for R32 GTS shape, maybe they'll suit, cos its the guards that are "wider" rather than the body/hanging points???

a headlight for $300 doesn't sound too bad. My dad clipped the mirror on his Verada (up market magna :rolleyes:) 2001 model or something, replacement mirror is over $400 and thats not painted or fitted... it depends who you go through though.

Headlights usually go for about $500 for a pair second hand :rolleyes:

Sorry to hear about the damage Shell, the roo probably hopped away with a big bruise... You'd be surprised how resilient they are!!

thanks Andrew, but as Ewen said i need the drivers side :)

damn $50 would have been great though!!

just got a price from a wrecker in Adelaide, $275 + $35 postage....so I guess around 300 seems to be the going price for one

kinda rules out getting the 4-door ones, cos I can't afford two :D

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
