What Are These Parts On My Skyline

[fully_sik]

hey guys,

got my r34 arriving in 2 weeks, and i wanna know what these things are.

the thing on the front fender just above the headlight? wat is it and what does it do?

the other thing on the front bumper just below the headlight?

cheers luke

My R34 sedan doesn't either of have these?

I'm guessing some sort of sensors... but honestly, no idea. Never seen them on a 34 before...

the thing on ur bumper is a like a parking antenna, it pops up to let u gauge where ur bumper is when parking. few imports came with them as an option in Japan. First time i've seen one on a 34 though. As for the attachments on the fender, at a guess they might be a parker light of some sort...japanese rice maybe

I concur with n15mo on the parking guide/antenna thing. I have only seen that once before on a 34. I don't have it on mine tho. I don't have a clue to those other attachments on your fenders.

You don't have xenons either so thats one less thing to have changed come compliance time.

I think it could be headlight wash's, lots of the newer cars out here have em.. and considering i've never heard of a gts-4 sedan b4 it could possibly be.

cheers 4 the replys, keep them coming. its interesting. how can u tell i dont have xenons?

[satanic]

My bet is on 1) parking antenna and 2) Japanese courtesy light... have a look on a lot of Jap and Taiwanese luxury cars; they all have these courtesy lights on the front.

Look where they are located, and have a think about it...

I'm going with parking aerials too.

[Reggi34dr]

I may stand to be corrected on the 'non-xenon' lights thing (once it lands here) but of all the 34 light assemblies I've seen with that parker design have been the normal old halogen setup.

a xenon headlight assembly is different as in each bulb i.e. high, driving, parker is en-cased/enclosed from each other, if that makes any sense to you.

In the end I can tell just by looking at them

Here's a pic of my car (still waiting for lip spoiler) with the aerial up, funny cos i had always thought it was an aerial for the sat/nav set up that my car has. Looks cool at night as there is a blue light on top which illuminates when you turn your lights on.

I believe that they are factory style driving lights on the bumper. Can anyone confirm this?

Note my car has Xenon headlights with auto setting (turn on by themselves at night).

Nup...... But I got a turbo lol... wish i'd been able to get a GTX-T ... they would have been very nice.

I disagree, they look like Xenons to me, but i too can be wrong.

Remove Xenon b4 taking car to compliance, then refit them after compliance, as they are a much better headlight.
