Hi all, I'm looking at buying some t10 parker globes for my 1997 skyline, since one of them have blown. I'm interested in this blue Monza brand from ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/MONZA-T10-PARKER-LE...1QQcmdZViewItem I have the Philips Diamond vision headlights, which color should I go for the parkers? blue or white. Also, are the blue ones legal? I don't wanna get pulled over by the cops for illegal blue parkers

Just go for the white LED's mate. Those blue parkers don't belong on a Skyline in my opinion. Also be careful with those 4,5,6 etc LED ones. They might not fit into your hole (parker light hole).

yeah man :( those are exactly the ones I mean :)

I've got them in my: side markers, side indicators and park lights

and some bayonet style in my: normal indicators, rear indicators and brake lights

They run at an extremely low wattage, think its 0.5w per brake bulb, even less for the indicator bulbs,

And apart from the fact I need to wire in some resistors, because my indicators think i've blown a fuse and flash like 5 times a second, they look mint :D

You can also just leave your park/rear brake lights on overnight or for a few days, which is helpful if you ever need to park it on a street and they battery won't run out :D

I was just wondering why you would want to do that? Is it so that on coming cars can see that your car is there or?

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.

      STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
