Hey guys, Just found an issue today, stuck what to do. I have the R34 GTT, all has been fine and so on for ages... Not driven car since last weekend. Went out today, just found out the Brake Lights don't work.... I can turn on the lights as normal, but when I press Brake pedal, whether in ' no lights', 'side lights' or full lights' mode, I get no Brake Lights I changed the 10A Red fuse from the Fuse box in the engine Bay, which is labelled as 'TAIL' which is between 'TCS' and 'HORN' , but still no lights, and not sure the 'TAIL' fuse relates to brake lights... The fuse panel down by the pedals = in Jap (so cant read which fuse is for what!) Not even sure its a fuse problem. Not sure what to check, or where, etc. Any help, i would be very grateful

Hey All, I just wanted to do a write up for a tail light mod to make all the 4 rings light up on my R34. As stock (Mine at least) only the outer ring lights up, and i'm not a fan of this. (What mine looked like stock) So to do this you will need - 6x diodes (i just used some 3A rated jaycar ones) - Some heat shrink - Soldering gear To start you will need to remove the lights from the car. you need to remove the boot lining then you will find the 4 nuts that hold on the tail lights. Once these are out you will need to disconnect the connector then remove the assembly from the car. In my car i had this annoying sticky wrap on the cable. Removing this is a pain as it sticks to everything. Once this is removed you will want to wire in 3 diodes same as this diagram. I forgot to note down what colour the indicator light cable was. but this diagram should be correct (at least on a 98) it may be different on other years. After making this change on both sides when you press the brakes both sides should light up. If your interior lights come on when press the brakes you put in diode that goes between the 2 other diodes backwards. When you are all done it should look something light this when you press that brakes. I think it looks way better than stock. How legal is this? I don't know but i can imagine a cop pulling you over for having too many brake lights. I thought this was pretty straight forward to do but couldn't find any other write up's with exactly how to do it. Hope this helps for anyone that trying to do the same thing. Any questions let me know.
