I like the grey strip, provides some contrast and division

Yeah l like it on your car, and l liked it on mine when l had the stock silver wheels. But against gold, its just too much.

Add in the dark window tint ... and it just doesn't flow very well.

you can do em any colour really... just go to your paint shop and ask for the colour your after mixed in with clear gloss (50 50 ratio should be good) and get em in acrylic... apply em the same way you would on as the night shade... just give em a nice srub with soapy water and a scourer and then max and grease them and spray... im gonna do my r31 wagon tail lights in white... should look good on an all black car... heck might go further and get something wicked airbrushed on the lights... some evil eyes or sumthing

cheers

i just bought some nightshades today, whether i do it i dont know yet, worried about getting a defect and then having to try and hunt down some more lights.

it comes straight off with a bit of metho and some elbow grease :D

I#*@&^*!&!!! i just got my series 2 taillights from japland and the 2 corner lights with the indicators on them aren't in the box!! this sucks donkey balls so much, i hope they're just in another parcel or been accidently sent somewhere else

total to my door was about $500.

Mind you these were the cheapest ones i saw going at the yahoo auctions, all the others went for well over this. i just got lucky (well not with delivery.... @$*&^@$*(&^@$*!!!!!)

Edit:

Just got a reply email from Slidewize. turns out the seller didn't send all the lights in the first package, then they purhcased another part for a different buyer, and he was going to send the other lights in that package, but then that package got cancelled, and the lights were forgotten about. they just found them and have sent them over at their cost.

Well hopefully in a week or so i'll have a full set of lights

    • From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.
    • Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.  
    • I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works
    • I reached 10 posts and wanted to make my build thread too but still can't add pictures to posts so I have no idea how it works 😂
