[hanyou]

haha ive had 2 in the r33 gtst and 32 gtr.. haha was in my room and a mate of mine jus opened it out of no where... not knowing what the outcome was we all ducked for cover haha.. then realised you have to spark it to work LOL.

[dezz]

ive got mine somewhere....think i left it in the car when i dropped it off at the workshop though...2 months ago...so will be interesting to see if its still there!

[R34NRG]

they're required in japan....im assuming you have an R33...look in the passenger footwell and you'll see the flare holder clips

Most of them are gone when they get imported, or taken by guys at the docks/compliance etc....some are still there...Mine was there when i checked out my car at the compliance workshop, so I took it home before they got their sticky fingers on it hehe

I've got mine.. but it's way out of date I believe..

[SLIPPERY]

ive got mine in the 32 GTR

are they used during distress or what?

[WazR32GTSt]

i thought they had to be removed for compliance...

i don;t have mine, nor do i want one - extra weight for no reason!

Yeah i just got the brackets, must have been taken out at compl. ,Didnt know what they were for until a mate told me. Yeah they are just used when you are changing a tyre or something.

Anyone got a spare one for me to replace it?

[dezz]

its odd...my girlfriends lancer VRX (so full aus delivered, no evo business) has the flare holder in it...hehe it was rather amusing when i discovered it

[Plat]

diddnt u all know, the flares are for when your skyline breaks down on railroad tracks..... lol

[Beer Baron]

yes it's for if your car brakes down on train tracks at night, or on a dangerous piece of road at night. when you light them they just burn bright red and smoke a little. no shooting or anything special.

They are removed at compliance.

I've got one in the GTR and GTST but I've lost the one from the soarer.

Anjo0, if you want to flog some i'll take 3. i want a spare for each car

[Xizor]

I have mine, imported car a few months ago.

[R33_Rob]

i thought that it was for a batton holder lol... you can fit a small sized baseball in them... not that i would know...

Can u buy the flares in australia? and how much are you guys selling yours for

[bigdamoc]

Well there ya go, i only saw the holders yesterday, had the car for just over a month and thought the place where i bought it from had taken something out that should be there. I wish i had looked to see if it were there when i took the car for the first test drive!!!

[MerlinTheHapyPig]

i still have mine...

better question should be.... has anyone been stuck on a train track and had to use one??

[thorpe84]

i want a flare, care you buy them? im guessing maybe from a marine shop ro something

if anyone has a real "nissan" style flare i want!

my 33 has the holder but no flare when i first got my car i thought it was for a japanese fire extinguisher (smaller and more efficient then ours/us)
