Hi guys, Got sick of my standard rear bulbs causing blinding, hideous pink brake and tail lights. So the answer, 36 bulb LED rear tail lights like shown below (left is LED, right is standard) Now, the problem is, when driving, applying the brakes causes: 1. the clock to 'dim' as if you have turned the parkers on at night (a standard R33 function I believe) 2. the a/c panel to dim (as above) 3. my dvd player to dim (as its wired to when my parkers turn on also) 4. my 3 GReddy gauges to light up (dull, but none the less, they get power to the light in the gauge) When i let off the brake pedal, everything goes bright again (except my gauges, which cease to light up) I am fairly stumped as to why a simple tail light bulb change could start messing with this stuff. Its on a totally different circuit, I would have thought? If I have my parkers on, and everything dims as normal, then applying the brakes does not make anything dim any further. All I can think is that the "dim" is operated by currents being drawn by the lighting system in total? And lighting up all the LEDs (144 + gtr wing LEDs) is causing the car to think I have put the parkers on? Although this seems stupid, its the only explanation I can gather. ( I am aware LEDS draw very low wattage. The bulbs are 5W I think) Or has a short somehow magically appeared? I am confused to say the least. Any help would be great.

Looks brand new! f**k series 3's are awesome

To answer your thread. Flat change just before limiter. Enjoy the bang bang bang as you shift second with the throttle mashed, release the clutch and getcha skates on

Ohhhh I thought the SR20 GT-RS was 52 trim and the Rb25 version was 56 trim. Well there ya go, cheers

I agree, judging by the graph the GT-RS should be dead in the water.

looks like it needs some TLC. Will be good to see it when its finished!

The 2835 has always confused me slightly, its seems so close to the GT-RS that its place in the market isn't really required? They share the same compressor wheel, with a slightly bigger rear housing correct? Obviously HKS's graph proves the difference between the kits is minimal, to say the least.

God guys, get a room

Certainly risky! There are shops that sell and fit aftermarket sunroofs, I would google search it and see if they are willing to install a factory roof (should be an easy exercise for them)

Ohhhh haha. Who measures at the fly these days

Yeh my thought was it might be air in the pump causting cavitation, hence the milkshake gurgle noise...

Im not quite sure you have 300rwhp tho ... On topic: You can have my walbro (great reviews on this pump, just check this site!)

Mine makes the noise before turning the steering wheel aswell. The power steering pump is driven by a pully off the engine, so if your engine is pumping, so is the power steering pump (whether or not you are turning the wheel or not). * thats my take on it, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Certainly does! By the time I'm a few traffic lights down the road its gone. I have noticed a leak from my power steering rack, and I believe its air getting into the power steering system.

Dont you get defected enough already without doing more defectable mods lol?

I have the 'straw noise'. I believe mine is air in my power steering rack.

But the fun just starts at 100 really...

260rwkw + a terrible launch, flat change and the sound of limiter can net a 4.2 0-100 dash

First is over in a split second in my car. I may consider launching in second at the drags, but it would be brutal on the drivetrain with mickey t's

Yeh mine went on late saturday and pulled 260rwkw so I was happy with that. Brady's white 33 pulled 405rwkw i think! It was well up there with the big turbo v8's, great to see. Congrats on the runner up too! Deserved. Sadly there wasnt more street(show quality still) cars there like yours, there was more last year.

Doesnt sound that odd. Its pretty much a stocko GTR. So therefore its probably in the 13's and running traps of around 100mph. Which 160rwkw will do. Add in varience of different dynos, and its not that low IMO. My R34 (206kw again remember, although there are arguments a GTR is abit more from factory) made 160rwkw with a cat back and 12psi boost.

Just gotta get lucky. My RSM was a bargain, 100 bucks with a G sensor aswell. 4 wires, 30 mins install, and its ready to time my terrible, full of wheelspin launches!

If its rear is veilside, you can guarantee it will look like shit and from memory and the pics posted... it is
