Hello,

As you can see I have some moisture inside the Driving Lamp on a R33 Series 2... does anyone have some advice on how to remove the Lamp?

Do I have to remove the Bumper or does the shroud clip off from the front?

Any advice appreciated... don't want to break anything.

The cover comes off with 2 bolts from memory then the light assembly comes off with another two. Pretty straight forward if you look at the back of it.....

Then I'm not sure if you want to take the lense apart or just try and wash it without the bulb etc in it. Some rag and a screwdriver along with either car wash or maybe contact cleaner might fix it up easily. Otherwise its probably an oven job to sperate the lense. Not sure on how to do it to be honest

Ive had them apart, not the easiest ones to separate and its kinda messy to do...id suggest trying to clean them out first and then find where the moisture is getting in and seal it...

Thank you Gentleman... much appreciated, I will try to do the best without pulling the lens off the light.

So are the bolts to the shroud behind the bumper, via the wheel arches I presume?

I can't see anything obvious from the front or underneath, on how to get the light shrouds off. I thought perhaps the light shrouds clipped off from the front.

Remove the whole light by undoing a couple of bolts in behind the bumper.

The front shroud / cover can then be removed and yeah the rag and screwdriver in through the bulb hole or even a hairdryer is great for drying the inside.

Look at the back. I told you in the first reply. They are very straight forward to pull apart

Sorry I misread your first reply... I didnt see the words at the back of it.

All good cheers.

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
