Don't go clear tail lights. You'll look like those lancer drivers who throw on clear lights.

well the lights im after that i saw on another 33 where kinda of clear led cirlces, the rest of the surroundings of the lights were the same color as the car so it looked pretty good :(

heres a pic of my r33 with them on its in the shop at the mo so cant get beta pics

gosh is that the veilside supra wing?!??!?!

no offence buddy i commend u for the way u have expressed yourself but its just wrong.

get rid of the wing at LEAST

That's like taking a reputable import,... and deliberately turner it into a ricer!

You would get more recognition taking it back to stock.

However,.... you are from New Zealand,... so maybe that explains why everything's so backwards.. :thumbsup:

Can u get rid of the red dot in the middle??

If you got rid of the red in the middle of the light,... then you would end up with brake lights that look like huge reverse lights!

It's the same as fitting clear indicators, you have to fit an amber bulb, or else you would have flashing reverse lights.

Brake lights must be red,... indicators must be amber, reverse lights clear... it's universal,... although some American cars have red indicators mixed with their brake lights, which is kind of off putting.

    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.   
    • 300hp (225kw) is barely outside the standard turbo's range with a bit of extra boost in it (200ish). If you are going to change the turbo you should aim for 250-300kw (330-400hp) to make the expense worthwhile
    • A couple of things, firstly omg that turbo is expensive! $3,000 USD for dinosaur technology is robbery. You could buy a G series turbo and have a good amount of change instead.  If you want a good budget option, have a look here - https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/ If you are keen to spend more, have look at the modern turbos, Garrett G series, Borgwarner EFR, etc. Have a look at the RB25 dyno results thread for inspiration.  If you upgrade your turbo to something that will support the 300hp you want and only "probably" have Haltech ECU, your car will only "probably" run. Actually, no it won't run. You are going to need the ECU and injectors at the time you do the turbo upgrade.  No thoughts on "this much boost" as you didn't say how much boost that actually is. Having said that, plenty of unopened RB25's making even more power then what you are chasing.
