From Streeter:

1 Nissan B5230-79972 - Part number changed to B5230-79982 - 1,050yen. in stock.

2 Nissan B5370-89940 - 3,465yen. will be Jun 15 if we order now.

3 Nissan B6331-AQ000 - discontinued.

4 Nissan B6336-AQ000 - discontinued.

Blah. Bloody nissan

Do I need to worry about the change in part number for the switch?

Well I have the left hand fog light assembly completely removed, so I can start looking for a suitably sized replacement light.

If I was to chase someone local to make fibreglass/carbon fibre light surrounds, how many people would be interested?

As an aside, the Narva HIDs I was looking at were $1k, so I'm looking at going Narva spotlights for ~$100 and a HID conversion kit for ~$90. $190 HIDs sound a lot better than $1k HIDs, and I really think with the driving I do spotlights will be better than fog lights.

Jethro & Dale - I have the 2 x Switches and 2 x Relays from Nissan Japan with me :thumbsup: . Also clarified with three sources that Foglight Shrouds are NLA. There was a slight chance that Nissanin Sapporo had some but no go!

I've got 2 sets of foglights. Well I've got a set sitting at home doing nothing. Another set on an Aero bar that's on its way in from JPN. The complete set is destined for Dale :thumbsup:

If you've interested gimme a holla. The owner issue is you're going to have to find the plastic surround shroud thingies for them...apparently a mob in Russia has them for about $55 a peice + shipping.

i was thinking about replacing mine with HID driving lights. it might be difficult to retro fit them to the factory aero lights.

Exactly why mine aren't mounted up yet.

I'm thinking I may have to use the existing brackets and weld something onto them to mount the new spotty to. I need to get more active about that because I want them in for the drive to Melbourne.

Don't buy HID lights though, they're around the $1k mark for decent ones in that size. I got a pair of standard Narva Compac 100s for ~$70, plus a HID conversion kit on eBay for ~$70. Win.

I think the best way is to take the standard mounts off the spot light, bolt them into the bumper, then measure up and weld some brackets in between to mount the light onto.

You can mount them on the bumper (I think), but I don't think it'd be great, as they'd move around too much.

DONT buy HIDs?? if i didnt want HID then the standard ones would be fine :)

however, i WANT HID lol

i think an H1 modified to fit in the hole will work. just gotta go to jaycar with the lamp assembly and try a few out.

No I meant don't buy specialised HIDs, get a conversion kit. Epically cheaper.

So you're going to modify the standard lamps and retain the lenses? Put in a HID kit or something?

Doubt the Russian mob do actually have them?? Worth buying for someone if they do.....

Now that you are getting the Nismo bar - you also have a spare set of fogs with switch and relay available then??? How much did it end out costing for shipping on the bar - pm if you like...

    • Yeah, whenever I say "HP", I mean HP. As in, at the engine. Allowing for a 25% discount from engine to typical Ozzie braked roller dyno figures, then subtracting the usual (more optimistic) US inertia dyno offset..... you get into the 600 actual engine HP territory from your 484 wheel number. 484 / 0.75 = 645   (that's Aussie rw intertia HP, converting to approximate engine HP. 645 --> 600 is discount for inertia dyno. Could actually be worse than that. But that would still be up around 600. So near enough for purposes.
    • Still fast enough to have fun (kinda). Time for a modern turbo with a divided turbine housing and a proper twin scroll manifold. I think 400-450kW is a great place to be, provided it's all in before 4500 rpm.
    • i'm not at 600 though 😢 its 484hp (356kw) at the wheels.. 
    • Nice. 600ish HP is probably a nice place to be.
    • In the US the EPA has been going after shops that sold aftermarket ECU tuning software that allowed you to disable CELs for things like EGR, DPF, SCR, or TWC failure. They also went after shops for selling emissions delete equipment. Their logic is that all cars built for street use have this emissions equipment and you cannot do an after the fact conversion to an off-road vehicle not intended for street use. Cobb, Hondata, and similar companies have basically all revised their tuning software such that going forward you cannot suppress DTCs for emissions-critical systems, nor can you toggle systems on and off in the tune like EGR. You also cannot adjust OBD emissions monitoring logic. You can still tune these cars. But you have to do things the hard way, basically. For example Subaru FA20DITs used to delete the TGV system to get spare analog IO for a flex fuel sensor. EGR also has to be dramatically pared back because without the TGVs the stock EGR map causes bad misfires. Now instead they have to implement the flex fuel system as a CAN bus sensor instead. IMO, this is heavy-handed but the EPA in the US gave so much leeway for so long and the aftermarket relentlessly abused that leeway to the point that they could actually see the effects of all these emissions-deleted work trucks on their air quality monitoring for cities that haven't met Clean Air Act standards. It's one thing to have a few people deleting emissions on their weekend car that spends 9 months out of the year on jack stands. It's another thing entirely for entire fleets of tradies driving around 8 hours a day on deleted diesels that emit 1000x the emissions per mile of a compliant vehicle.
