I am going to try relocating my horn to a button on my dash, since after installing my quick release kit I cant get the damn horn wires and the actual horn to fit in its hole. Just wondering where I would find the wires so I can hook them up to a momentary button???

Ummm aren't you basically answering your own question?

You said you can't get the horn wires to fit in the hole for your steering wheel. Then use that wire? Trace it back to it's postion in the loom and join into that

Well I cant use the ones in the steering wheel cause i cant loop them to the dash obviously. In the hub adapter this is one wire, is this a power wire? I guess i am going to have to take the whole boss kit off to get to the wire then.

Yeah easiest way to do it. Pull the steering column surround and steering wheel/boss kit off and try and locate the wire on the loom.

Run that wire to button. Earth the other side to chassis.

Do you have a photo of what the actual problem is? Not sure what the problem is that's causing it not to fit in the first place. Or is the horn button to loose?

EDIT: Ahhh never mind. Re-read the first post and it makes sense now. Hopefully won't be to hard to locate the horn power wire when you can see everything

Yeah thanks. The button just pushes on but there is so little room behind, the wires just spring back and push the button back out. Stupid quick release kit needs more room. I thought about not having a horn, but out of the 2 days of driving without a horn I dont think I could live without it since there are so many bad drivers out there!

    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
