RE: Alternators/Driving Lights

[Foreshew, Michael, HiServ/AU]

Terry,   Thanks for that.  I had an original 55Amp that had been rewound to about 100Amp.  Great power but reliability was a big problem.   As far as the lights, I have to be careful as I can only fit an extra pair.  The rules for (as I understand the CAMS manual) for PRC3 is that a maximum of 6 forward facing lights is allowed.  What I am trying to do is get some spotlights to replace the high beam and fit a set of floods.   Talk about no respect, I got woken up this morning by a strange noise and my security light on.  I went out to check and here was a guy pulling on one of the front wheels. After the obligatory abuse as in “Excuse me sir, but may I assist you?” (That’s how I remember it anyway).  I just wanted to see how well the wheels were secured.  Was the reply.  Needless to say he took off.   Like you said, no respect.   cheers   -----Original Message----- From: Terry & Heather [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 3 May 2000 0:03 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Alternators/Driving Lights   Michael, Some EFI Nissans have around 85 amp alternators, the V6 Maxima is close to that and could fit without too many mods, i think the SR & FJ alternators available from importers are only 75 amp but that still would go close to doing the job - Hitachi is very reliable these days too. As for lights if you want the best I think Cibies are still the one. To do it right you'll need 2 spots and 2 floods mounted up/down each side of the bar and you'll turn night into day. Make them removable if the car is not secure 24 hours every day as they'll walk - there's no respect out there these days.

Secondly, I am also after some driving lights for the front.  Anybody have recommendations/suppliers? All I have to do now is find a navigator.
