hello, i have just installed a JDM 99. You ll see below the picture before and after. The problem is.... on the old fascia (picture 1 ) , i ve got night light and turn light in the front bloc, and the side smoke bloc was empty. I have bought the kit on courtesy parts, but it came without the front light bloc. So, i have imported fog light ( and i think it s my mistake ) from Japon. With the new fascia ( picture 2 ), the turn signal are now in the side smoke bloc but alone, without the night light, so , i need a JDM front bloc with the night light ( picture 3 ) instead of the fog light i have installed. I hope it s a bloc with night light and not fog…

If you do please let me know?

Well I think I found my boost leak last night which pleased me as I'm about to fit a boost gauge. What I need to know is do I still need the boost sensor if I'm not going to use the factory boost gauge. Next question is, I have a swoosh boost gauge and the instructions don't state which wire is live and nuetral, black or white, anyone know? Cheers Scrawn.

Went out in car for a ride tonight and have had a problem :( selecting the lower gears when changing down, so i had a checked the slave cylinder and no leaks on the bottom, tried to bleed the system through( have had a problem a few weeks ago with air in the system) and i got nothing but air coming through and no fluid at all(reservoir is full). And now i have no clutch at all which is no good as i am suppose to be going on holiday in it early sat morning :headvswal . Which is the most likely cause to be the culprit slave cylinder or master cylinder or something completely different????? Help is needed fast, as time really is of the essence on this one. :ro…

can someone send me a diagram of how to remove this.... i took off the one bolt but nothing happened... also a " stupids " guide to how to and what to cap off for the pipe.... i have the full front end stripped down at the moment so access is kinda easy.... decided since i wasnt gonna get my money for the car i would make it a propper drift car..../ road going on occasions when my back is well. also any links to superchargers in the states.. gonna ask family to send me parts....... cheers... Aircon is more important at the moment though... lol :bow:

could anyone be so kind to give me a pic or two of the thermostat area,at last ive sorced my small but pain in the ass leak and want to see what ive got to encounter cheers people :)

After idling for about 10+mins the zed begins to smoke (embarrassingly quite alot) mainly from the right side but a little from the left. Its definately oil coz its blue... it always clears up after a quick blast up the road and doesnt smoke whilst driving, even when at full boost and coming off the power... so to clarify, it only smokes after being left on idle for a while... any ideas? any1 know where the breathers are on these?

when i start my car sometimes, the stock guage sits on the 0 not just infront of the -7. why is this? i think i have a boost leak somewhere but no idea where. when i cane it, there seems to be some smoke coming from under the bonnet which smells like burning rubber! it's not burning rubber but can't think what else it could be! possibly a water leak which is strange as i replaced all the water pipes! hmmmm.....

My big brake kit should be here by the weekend from smithy ( :dance: ) and while the car was jacked, wheels and discs off ive been thinking of things i could get done making the most of the access... So far ive come up with : AIV removal (not really got any reason to do it, but while ive got access...) Washer jet motor/connectors clean (using the guide in the faq) Fit the big brake kit (obviously). Just wondering if there was anything else i could do while ive got access/car jacked?
