It must be something recent because there are lots of R32's without it that must have been complianced before they changed the regulations. It sucks that you have to install the side indicators on the panel because there are plenty of factory cars that were sold in Australia without them, look at the 89 corolla or magna for example. What I don't get is that the front assembly light is alredy designed with a lump on the corner acting as the side idicator. It goes the same with the corolla and magna, the main front indicator assembly has a litlly lump in the corner of it, I guess that was a design trend back in 1989.

thats what i thought because it was so far around i didnt think it would need it.

anyone with pics would be cool though :cheers:

i cant recall ever seeing a r32 with side indicators, so im hoping and praying (and im not a religious man) that i dont need them ;)

two images of mine, without and with.

i had to have mine added for compliance over 2 years ago, the guy said that was the worst part about compliancing them because he had to cut into the panels :P

in the next few months ill be getting panels for it without the indicators.. nice and clean.

the ones that dont have them are personal imports. maybe 15yr cars too, i dont know. but all others need them.

i think smaller are better. mine arent that bad but would prefer without. i think the key is that they line up with the GT badge.

mine are factory 32 GTR repeaters, and line up with the GT badge :(

Got my brother's 32 complianced a month ago, and was told side indicators weren't required anymore. Glad too because I didn't want them cutting into the side of the car.

Same deal with dash dimmer too, no longer a requirement.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
