Hi Guys,

The Inside left (Red part, not indicator) light is out. How do i change it?

I removed the carpet stuff in the boot and it didn't look at all like my R33 did. It looks like i need to take the whole tail light part out?

Also, what type of globe do I use? I was just going to take it out and show the guy at the local servo and see if he could get me a new one (I know it’s a standard type, just not the name).

If you have pictures too that would be awesome!

Thanks in advance,

Ash.

Hi,

Thanks for your Help.

You're Right, I opened up the carpet and there were 4 10mm nuts. I undid those and the entire light assembly came out.

From there it was really easy to change the globes.

I took a quick photo with my phone (sorry for quality) for anyone who wants to know in the future.

I also found an old Jap razor blade in there.

Ash.

thankyou ash, great help! i dont have a user manual yet, had a quick look last night in dark and noticed the whole bootis lined so i gotta get that out, now knowing whats next is a great help. What globes were they? normal ones???

oh and ask a silly question before i do it, is there an easy way to release the trim clips???

Cheers mate. All was good i fixed it that arvo. The trim clips were easy with small screwy to lift the centre out a bit then pull the whole clip out. The stop tails had gone on 3 out of 4 so i replaced all 4. The 4th was on its way too so i suspect it was just an age thing.

For anyone wondering with the r34 gtt 4 door, it doesnt require you to take the light off as the globes are all easy removal once you peel the carpet back. See pics. Oh and fyi, the globes were $12.50 per pair at autobarn.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
