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.

Stephen

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.

      Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf

      I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf

      yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things

      I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
