Hey everyone, ive just bought myself a r33 series 2 and i have a question, on the dash (right beside the speedo) there are a set of 7 lights, the one furthest to the left on the bottom row shines green whenever i start the car up, any ideas what ths light is for, i was thinking possibly a warning to do the timing belt as the car has just turned over 100000kms, the timing belt has been done however??? any help would be good, cheers

Weird. I have a green LED in the same spot as the ones in that picture that does the same thing; comes on when the Fog lights do. It just serves as a reminder that the foggies are on, just in case your Skyline doesn't beep-nag you to death if you forget.

Rip out the cluster and follow the wires, see where they go.

^^ Looks like its a compliance thing as theres no way thats factory! Looks like shit!

lol on it being a timing belt light...that would be funny.

Toyota Hiace's have a timing belt light, it flicks on every 100,000km, and to reset it, you take the cluster out and move a small screw from one hole to another, re-setting the timer for another 100,000km... moving the screw back again when it clicks ANOTHER 100K :sick: and so on.......

Wow, Australian has some ass requirements for jap cars!

Pretty sure the thing beeps at you same as the headlights doesnt it? Because it switches the park lights on too.

Well, does in mine anyway and i dont have fog lights! The switch just turns on the parkers.

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
