Hi guys! This is my first post on SAU, so if I'm doing something wrong, that's why. I purchased my first ever Skyline yesterday, an R34, 2000 model with 72xxx km's on the clock for 8500. I'm very happy with the car so far, although, as I went for my first drive at night last night, I discovered the lighting in the cab is not very good. In most cars I have driven, the gear area is lit, so you can clearly see your gear selection. Last night, I could definitely not see my gears, apart from the dashboard icons. Was wondering if this is how it is intended to be? Or have i blown a fuse/globe somewhere? Or is there even a lighting selector knob in the cabin I am oblivious to? Also, the man i bought the car from repainted the left side mirror, so i assume he removed it to paint it. The motorised folding action doesn't work, although the right one will. It makes a loud whirring sound, but doesn't move. Another issue is the factory cd player. It is hooked up to a 6 stacker Nissan branded box in the boot, but i can't seem to get either of them to play. The factory unit in the dash just spits cds back out and turns off, and the stacker states an error. Not that big of an issue, as i will have to replace it anyway, but i just want some good driving tunes. Haha Thanks for your help! And again. First post. First Skyline. Haha. No hate.

I'll give you guys the quick run down. But actually figuring it out is up to your own abilities. I assume if you own a gtr, you should know how to do some sort of maintenance, disassembly, or repair. List of items: Solder Station 3mm 5000 - 20,000 mCD LED at 30 degree - 45 degree focus beam (Green, orange, red, white, cool white) Know your LED specs! Forward Voltage, Forward Current, Supply Voltage Any of these LEDS are good: http://www.mouser.com/.../Standard-LEDs.../_/N-b1bc8... Next is your resistor. Below is a resistor calculator https://www.digikey.com/.../conversion-calculator-led... For instance, I used a 3.2v LED, 20mA, and we know that cars use 12v. So I needed a ~440 Ohms resistor .176 watt. It's safe to go with 500mW. The best resistors are metal film. They reduce noise (LED Flicker), better tolerances for voltage spikes, and higher heat handling. These are the resistors I used. REMEMBER TO USE YOUR RESISTOR CALCULATOR!! Good choices here (470 ohm 500mW):http://www.mouser.com/ProductD.../Vishay/CMF55470R00FKR6/... On each specific switch, as shown in the video here on this forum, there are rubber 'bulb condoms' that sit inside the switch. They're ass, take em, shit on them, throw them away. Remove the switches from your facia after you've taken it out. You'll have to unscrew them. Makes it easier, and there is a reason for this. Hide your empty facia somewhere. You won't need it for now. Plug your removed switches into your harnesses. Turn on your running lights. Get your red or some colored paint pen. Take a spare LED that's been wired with your resistor, and touch negative or positive to your contacts and do some guess work on the polarity. Don't short your LED out unsure emoticon Once you've found the correct polarity direct, mark your hot wire with your pen After you got the marks, I mean it's basic soldering. Red to Pos terminal, Black to negative terminal. It'll take some fenaggling to get the LED into the hole, but you'll just have to be patient. Use some epoxy or RTV to glue the led in place. This is to hold the LED in the correct position, or it'll bounce all over the place because it ain't got a condom. For the window switch. It's just clipped into the door panel. Pry it out gently. It's difficult to find the location of the clips so you don't break them. Took me a bit. There will be a yellow cover on the back of the main window switches. Take mini screw drivers and pry off the clips. Once you get it, you'll see a circuit board with a T3 socket. I decided to just solder in an led (after testing my polarity using the same method above). Take down with epoxy and good to go. Before your decide to snap everything back together and start driving, test out your switches to make sure they even work. Also, you can test the illumination. If you're feeling froggy, this is the perfect time to completely disassemble your switches and clean / lubricate them. I got rid of some electrical gremlins when I did this. I also flowed solder on the circuit board.

*** GROUP BUY OPPORTUNITY *** I am now the official distributor for Zleds in Australia. What that means is I'm able to offer significant discounts to the DIY kits for the R32 rear LED conversion kit. I am setting up a group buy to reduce shipping price on the consumer end as they are from the United States. These lights retail for more than $600 USD or about $835 AUD, this group buy will see the price cut in half at 400$ AUD with shipping included. The minimum buy is 5 sets. The lights can be customised how ever you would like for additional cost. (Depending on how creative you get between 30-95$ for what you come up with.) I can also get these boards made for the R33, R34 and R35. However the templates for the R33 and R34 have a 2-3 week lead time to be developed. The R35 already has a template if you would like them send me a pm to discuss pricing. I am also able to install the boards for you for an additional $150 with supply of the lights to be fitted. Awaken your GTR with quality Zleds rear led conversion kits. I have had these installed on my own GTR below for over a year and a half with no issues what so ever. The lights also can be set to pulse on braking or changed to be the "NISMO" style ring LEDs if you prefer. What you come up with is limited only by your imagination. I have included the YouTube link below as well to see the lights in action. (Many of the NSW guys have seen them already and can attest to the build quality) 'Nismo' styled lights Conversion 1 style If you would like to order please send me a message or you can email me at ricardowilliamsATright2drive DOT com DOT au Before any of the boards are purchased I will need to meet the minimum buy. For R32 boards it's 5 orders, the R33 and R34 are 7 as they will need to be made for the larger halos in the R34 lights and larger turn signal in the R33 light. Pricing for the R33 conversion is 490 and the R34 is 525. These prices only reflect GROUP BUY pricing. Please note that these are also base price minus the sequential brake upgrade. I have attached a few photos to view of them on my own car, Please send enquiries to my email - ricardowilliamsATright2drive DOT com DOT au You can also visit www.zledslights.com to view the current lights available and styles of others already done. Alternatively you can send me a message on facebook.

Hi I'm thinking of changing my stop/tail bulbs to LEDs but cannot get confirmation of LED have the stop/tail capability. The bulbs have two filaments. Its the same for the position lamps / parking lamps in my HR31. When switching the indicator on, the second filament lights up. Do LEDs have half light up on tail, then all on brake?

A quick and easy project for your cars, installing lights in your foot-wells. Pretty simple but some people might be a bit scared to try it so here is a DIY to help you judge for yourself. Unfortunately, I don’t have heaps of pictures so I will try to describe it as best and use pictures where I can. Parts you need: 12V RGB LED Strip o Note: 3528 = less bright and less LED's per meter, 5050 = brighter with more LED’s per meter. LED strip joiners like below Automotive electrical wiring 1) Decide how you want your lights to operate. I wanted them to turn on and off with the dome light therefore I hooked it up to them 2) Decide what kind of lights you want. I used a RGB strip, which although is more expensive, you can change the colours by playing with which lights are connected (i.e. Red, Blue, Green, Red + Blue, Red + Green, Blue + Green). You can also try to hook up a controller but they are a bit harder and have issues storing previous settings when power is lost (i.e. Doors closed) 3) Remove trim to get access to your dome light. I removed the A-pillar trim and the sun visor on driver’s side. This will allow the roof lining to move a bit and give you better access. 4) Use a multi-meter and work out which terminal on the dome light is positive and negative. 5) Remove dome light. 6) I used a straightened coat hanger and fed it above the roof lining and pulled it through the dome light cut-out. 7) Once the dome light is removed, connect your wire to the appropriate terminals. I soldered it onto the actual metal joiners and fed it through holes already present in the dome light. Make sure not to damage the actual light at this stage. 8) Tape the wires onto the coat hanger and gently pull it out, bringing the wires out with it. 9) Feed the wires through along the pillar and through any gaps you can find inside the car into the driver’s side foot-well. 10) Now you need to create a bridge from the driver to passenger side. Cut one of the joiners in half and add a length of wire long enough to pass behind the centre console. Once wired up, you can pass that through and have both ends sticking out as seen. 11) Use another LED joiner and connect this end to the wires coming from the roof. You may not need to do this step depending on your lights as they may have wires coming out which you can connect directly. You will still need joiners between the two foot wells. 12) Connect the LED’s in the joiners and check operation before sticking them on. 13) Once operating perfectly, stick them under the dash. For passenger side, make sure glove box can still be opened and lights will not interfere. 14) Enjoy Notes: For a RGB light strip, to get a pure white light you need a controller, but you can wire all the three (RGB) lights to one wire, creating a near to white light. It will have a blue shade to it due how LED’s perform at different colors. LED strips which are flat and have low profile LED’s can be cut where it is marked on the strip without affecting the performance. Check the type of strip you are buying some can be cut, come cannot. DO NOT TRY TO SOLDER DIRECTLY TO LED STRIP. YOU WILL RUIN THAT SECTION TILL THE NEXT CUT POINT. I speak from experience. Troubleshooting: Lights don’t turn on o Check positive and negative o Check connections are properly made Lights are different colours on two sides o Bridge connection has mixed up wires o LED strips not inserted in joiners properly
