Hi there..

Dont know if this is the right area, but... The demister in my R32 hasnt gone since I got the car... anyway, measured the tracks on the back windows and there are no breaks... Pulled the switch out and found it didnt work... no problem, got another one that measured sweet.. fitted it and it still doesnt work (i.e no orange light comes on)... can anyone tell me if this is common with these, or if there is anything else I could check.. someone said to me once that you have ot leave the switch on for about ten minutes before the light "warms up" and comes on.. its not cold enough here for me to have a misty window to see if it works anyway, but I thought the light would come on at least? help...

well i am sure demisters dont need to be warmed up as my R32 one works when i press it even on a sunny day or on cold mornings... better take it to an auto electrician or maybe check your fuse? if its got one.... the light should come on regardless of the weather...

is there any other parts to them? or are they just a switch, a fuse and a set of rails on the back window? is there any other control box or something i could check? i've been into the local auto electrician and he cant be bothered... geez small towns are shocking..

cheers,

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY R33 GTS-t 4 Door - There is a timer box between the switch & the relay that often gives trouble -I have yet to find mine ?? Its under the dash somewhere , Also the switch orange light bulbs often give trouble , they are a tiny 12v bulb that can be accessed by levering the top off the switch itself but has to be out of the dash to get to the little clips that hold it in . Maybe it is working but bulb is out??? Good luck , I am still trouble shooting mine???

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      HG's high flow is not "bolt on". The core is shorter, moves the comp cover rearwards in the engine bay. means you have to deal with the inlet plumbing a little bit. This is probably something to consider with every "bolt on" turbo anyway.

      HyperGear. Just get a high flow of the stocker. Good, reliable, and should bolt on. Yes it will want things like a retune once done, so you need to factor this in to your spend too.

      Hi. Iam looking for some "cheaper" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO. I do not want "big" power just better reliability than the stock turbo which is "fot now" good but is old and i do not think it has "easy" life. One the Skyline here running some "temu" china Turbo but i dont trust those... Thanks!
