i just changed my r33 airbag wheel to a sports wheel. the wiring i have from the bosskit only has one bit that goes to the horn button and another bit hanging off it that looks to be a fuse but i cant see anywhere to earth the other bit of the horn to. would the fuse bit be the earth now or what? i didnt get another bit of wire to put on the other horn terminal on the horn pad like i thought you usually use to earth like commodores and stuff. any info on this mates?

also i needed to remove the fuse from the fuse box from the horn coz my old horn was sticking on and i dont have a fuse box cover so i dont know where to put a horn fuse and what voltage it is. can someone scan up there fuse box lid or tell me what one to put in and which slot to put it in please

LOL :yucky:

mate... alot of electrical items need earthing.. houses for example.. it's not just commodores.. now i'm not sure if it's the same sorta kit (ours was hooked up to a hilux).. but i think the boss kits have their own ground on it.. so that extra wire can just be tucked away down the middle of the boss kit..

i was using the commodore as an example not implying it was the only car thet needs to be grounded.

there is no spare wire to leave hanging. there is one plug from the car which plugs into the wiring for the bosskit that goes to one spade bit on the horn button. there is another wire handing off the side of the new plug which goes to the horn button. would that be the ground now and i just leave the other spade bit on the horn button with nothing connected?

id test it but i dont have a fuse connected to the horn in the fuse box so i dunno if its right

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
