Hi all

Does anyone know how to get all 4 rear lights lit up when braking?

I heard it's possible, however the brake light bulbs are easily blown if not done correctly, especially if the parking lights are on.

Is there a guide on how to do this properly?

Thanks

getting my dad to do this for me as he loves these kinda things.

from what i know what you will need is 2 double filament globes (same as you normal brake light but a size smaller so it fists the hole) and an inline fuse and globe holder.

locate which wire is the brake line wire splice into it it and run the wires to the right fittings int he new globe holder thing and presto.

its easy to do and kinda fiddley thats why my dads doing it for me lol but ye if no one has done this by next sunday ill have mine done by then and will put up a detailed instruction.

checked mine last night and all four tails brighten up when i brake, plus the small light top of boot lights up.

is that a standard thing on gtt? or is it gtt 4 door or has mine been modified i wonder??? I know i didnt do it... Pic below any help???

I think all 4 door has 4 lighting up cause that's the first thing I notice when I see a 4 door. Haven't seen any 2 door with 4 lighting up so far. Loved to do it to mine.. I thought it was just splicing the smaller light wire and join it to the main brake wire. I mean the ground wire of those 2.

All four stay lit as in when you hit the brakes?

It'd be interesting to see if there are any noticable changes to the wiring.

Wouldn't happen to have time to take some pics would you? :)

as in the two smaller ones stay lit.. but don't go bright when i brake like the big ones..

i only noticed this when i replaced with just jap LED ones.. but am unsure if they were always like it.. i'm sure i could take a pic of the wires

Oh I think what you're talking about is the normal setup.

Both the outer and inner circles are lit when you have your lights on.. but when you hit the brakes, only the outer ones will go brighter.

I'm hoping to wire it so that even when I don't have the parkers on and I hit the brakes, all four will light up.

    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
