I like it! Altho I have been known to like ricey things like neons and extra lighting, but it looks much better than stock. How did you do it? Was it in a kit, or DIY? I hate my dash lights, and I'd love to have something like that, only red.

DIY with use of dan666's white led's at the back and blue led's projecting on the white dials. I've also got a switch to turn the blue lights off so it just looks like a standard dash with white numbers.

I was going to go all bright white but wanted some contrast and the blue matched the turbo timer which was already in place.

you wanna go blind from driving?

stock dials with LEDs pwn, get some from 666DAN

I originally had Dan's blue led's in the dash but with the amec white dials, colour distribution was poor and just looked like poo. Then I bought the bright white leds which worked well except I got bored of that after a short while so I tried this.

It's really not that bright, it's just the pics.

what did you use to shine the light onto the dash?

bit bright on the pics but looks quite cool imo

Nah, it's not a light shining onto the dash mate... he changed the LED globes... you can get them off ebay etc...

i currently have some red leds behind my dash from dan666 but he mentioned he has some projecting and i was curious.

did ur look like mine? i like the blue leds... i put them in my A/C unit n their fine (match my dvd plater buttons nicely) but in the dash, right infront of the leds is perfect blue but everywhere else is very faded as no light is getting there... how well did the white ones work?

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Do the following first and get back to us. - Clean and verify your IACV - Verify for vacuum leaks/post MAF leaks. (Pressure test is the best and cheapest way) - Do you have a BOV with stock ecu/MAF? If so, remove it.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      Hey all, The skyline I have is stalling when the engine is at normal operating temp.  When starting it while it is cold, it'll run just fine.  I have replaced the battery (bad cell), I have replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and clean the MAF sensor.  Any other suggestions?

      Thanks for all the information on this.  I tried ordering the parts from Amayama website and all 3 Solenoids are discontinued and not available.  Does anyone have any other websites to suggest that I could find the parts?   Separate issue-- I will start a new thread, but basically the vehicle is stalling when warmed up.

      It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including.
