These illuminated panels were actually a Nissan factory option. there is a thread floating around somewhere here with all of the options that were available for the skyline and the illuminated panels were one of them. Good luck actually trying to source one for your car though, as im pretty sure people who have got it arent that willing to part with it (unless you gave them some silly amount of money for it). Call Just Jap or an imports part supplier and ask if they may have any lying around. Ive seen one on this Japanese parts site called Up Garage. couldnt read it though cos it was in Japanese.

with that rear panel, :P

if you can find a S1 rear panel cheap.. all you do is hook up 14 red LED's (hi brights) inside the rear panel ( 4bolts through boot) and hook them up to a resister and then connect to the brake lines ..

then you spray paint the rear panel, and rub off the paint on the raised letters ..

Thanks guys :P

Where's the Up Garage site?

I thought they were just a warehouse type store... didn't know they had a site?

go to www.upgarage.com

Like i said, its in Japanese. I was just randomly clicking on icons then it showed stuff for Skylines and the illuminated panel was with all the other stuff. If you really want one why dont you go to the main thread called 'Japan' and ask one of the guys/gals working in Japan to get it for ya. Of course they may ask for a comission fee which is quite reasonable.

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
