Michael, if you remove your high beam lights you can then run 4 x driving lights !

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

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.

Getting the 610 to go rallying, I want to upgrade the alternator to power driving lights, etc.  The current one is the standard 55AMP Bosch Unit.  Are there any reasonable upgrades to about 85AMP?

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.

Cheers
