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...

    • Yep it's an r34. Usually people remove struts without removing the front upper control arm (fuca is what i assume this is?) So not sure why mine wouldn't fit. I know on my other car I did a similar job and it wouldn't fit until I removes the ball joint nut even though I didn't remove it prior.   The upper arm doesn't seem to be in the way (the part that's bolted to the chassis. The part that's bolted onto the j arm I'll check that out though.   I was going to compress the spring and put it in with the compressor attached but not sure if it will work  Haven't seen anyone do it.
    • I have a small lip on the boot of the E90 and I've been toying with the idea of trying to mould it in to the boot to remove the gaps. I guess shaving the seams? No idea what the terminology is here.  What I'm wondering is, if it's current double sided taped down, what would I do to more permanently attach it so it makes a good base for the filler? It only has edges so no way to bolt it down unless I add some braces. I've done a lot of fibre glassing in my time so that's nice and easy but I'm not sure what my options are here.  Sorry, this is the best pic I have and I'm 4 million ks from home ATM.  
    • Based on this comment I went googling. A052's in the sizes I want are certainly not cheap, but I couldn't find anything in the V70A anywhere. How much do they run/where do they get sourced from? From what I know (nothing but internet searches and reviews etc) the R888 has pretty much fallen off from anyone's actual use, and the AO52 is the king of "road legal" rubber. Nobody is driving around on their daily for Z221, AO050, DZ03G. At that point, for purely track only tyres - Why not buy actual slicks? Why does nobody actually do that anyway?
    • This an R34? It shouldn't matter though - it should be the same as on any of the others, and by "any of the others" I mean R32, because that is the car that I have had the front end apart on about 50 times this year. Sometimes, it is much easier to get the lower shock eye onto that pin when: a) you have the upper shock nuts backed off a few turns so you can wiggle it a bit more freely. When they are tight the bottom of the strut is much harder to move that _leeeetle_ bit you might need it to to win the fight. b) you have the outer bolt(s) from the FUCA out and so you can move the lower pin around freely too. Then, all you have to do is put the upper arm back on when you've got the rest back together, and this is where jacking under the balljoint can help.
    • One question before I make a bigger mess potentially, do I need to undo the nut on the outer ball joint?
