Here's some readings that I took down just before. When driving, my voltage is between 13.8 and 14.2. When idling, it goes to about 13.8 with headlights on. When driving, I tried high beaming, everything seems fine, no drop of voltage like before. But when I was idling and tried high beam, voltage drops and car almost stalls. So would it be my battery or alternator? I've lined up a optima yellow top for pick up tomorrow, so I hope it's not my alternator...

There's no window, no nothing...

Hmmm.. The battery is a maintainence free battery... So how can I check the water level?..

I just had a good look in the engine bay, checked all fuses and connections, they seem to be all good. Then took the car for a drive, took a couple of seconds to start but still started, the voltage on my MFD was reading 14.5v or so, but when I use highbeam, the voltage drops to about 13v, headunit restarts, car almost stalls, then after I turn highbeam off, everything becomes normal again....

The terminals are definitely not loose, but possibly a bit too dirty lol. erik - yeah I might try that first and see what happens. Just hoping I haven't killed my battery :S

Ok, here's my issue. Yesteday when I was working on my car, I left my car in ignition to play music (should have put it into ACC) thinking my battery is good enough to last a while.. 4 hours later, the music just died and I realised I've just drained my battery... So I had to get the car jump started. It starts with no problems at all and end up going for a 5-10mins drive to dinner. But after dinner, battery went flat again.. So I used a jumper pack to start the car. Once started, I went for a 1-2hr cruise, and what I notice is, everytime I put my highbeam on or even fog lights, it would drain so much battery that it will restart my headunit and also stalls the car... And today, I started the car a few times, a couple of times it took a few secs to start, but didn't have to use the jumper pack, but the highbeam problem is still there... But what I don't get is, my battery was 100% healthy before I drained it out and never had any of those issues above, which I'm guessing my alternator was fine before that... So what can cause these issues? And the battery should have been fully charged by a 1-2hr drive right? And is it true that once the battery is drained, it won't hold charge again?.. Any help would be appreciated!

Welcome to SAU! Where abouts in Vic are you at? Anyway hope to see you round

I might have one, I'll see if I can find it

SnS edition was awesome! good work dude!

$1000 is a joke, so cheap, yet no one has snapped them up :S I sat in them yesterday and they look pretty good in the car and are very comfortable!

Ohhhh I got one too

I didn't know that you have to get a licensed person to install seat? But the Autobarn Drift Blade is ADR approved and some other ones out there. And just because a seat isn't ADR approved, doesn't mean is bad, I don't think Bride seats are ADR approved... And worse comes to worse, put a seat cover on haha

Check the for sale section lol. But it is rare to find them without the number plate part cut out, coz everyone cut it out for their front mount. But for $1000, you can buy an aftermarket z-tune kit lols

Pretty sure rear light covers are wider too... Therefore.. It is not gonna fit without it looking like its gonna fall off and stuff lol Just buy a GTR style that fits a GTT

Guess I'll be there to collect my trophies haha

Mine is 35% sides and privacy glass on rear 1/4 and rear. Pretty happy with the 35%, and it seems like people can't even see me through the 35% lol. Also, just wondering, is the factory privacy glass = to 5%?

ALL posted! Reply here or pm me when you guys receive them Cheers

Quick update, I've received the lips yesterday, I'll pack them tonight and will post them tomorrow, so you guys should get it on Friday via Express
