What up muh peeps!!

I picked up a series 1 last night

Before i commence the RiaZ transformation i need a bit of help

i searched last night with no luck

the front bar indicators/park lights/driving lights (not sure which)

is spinning me out

I have seen 2 types

one has a larger orange indicator section and a small clear one

and the other is the one i have with a smaller orange indicator section and larger clear one.

Is this an indicator/park light or indicator/driving light

is there supposed to be a switch?

how does it all work?

is it just so it looks pretty?

anyone who can locate a thread please put up a link if it helps answer these questions

second thing is has anyone got any spare mounts for installing a stereo? (the factory brackets used to connect to hold the deck in the console are missing)

or if anyone has some lying around that I can look at to make my own brackets that would be fantastic

oh yeah 1 more thing

clutches

do 93 r33 clutches wear so the engaging is at the floor or higher up

thanks

i am sure there are plenty of series 1 owners who know all these answers

RiaZ

i was also wondering about the front indicators... (r33 s1 aswell)

but i figured it out...all by myself... :D

haha

anyway this is what i know:

Park lights are on the outside of the headlights.

Frontbar indicators are yellow with a clear bit next to them as as far as i can tell the clear bit does **** all and is just show..

i dont have fog lights or anything in them although chuckin some lights in there for some foggy's could be the go

my 2 cents hopefully it helps...

well from what i'v seen on "most" lines is that those light in the indactors do a whole lot of nothing series 2 and series 1

but in some cases they do have a switch if you look where u turn your lights on (indactor arm) there should be the normal switch for turning lights on in some cases there is another similar switch right behind this one for turning these lights on i'll take a digi pic later and post it

i know about the stalk cos i had a series II before and those do a whole lotta something which is fine.

back to the front bar indicators very annoying... and there definately is 2 different types with like I said a larger and smaller clear section next to the indicator.

maybe its just spares that have been thrown in from another r33 that did have lights

in that case i see some missle switch action. test wires for what wattage bulbs they will support and bobs gonna be my uncle

umm paul tis true the fun has begun already

i will holla at ya for sure

anyways next and most importantly is the stereo bracket.

need tunes arrrghhhh

its been less than 24 hours since music in the car...the world is gonna end.

anyways next week i should be at kwinana seeing what abuse this car will take considering the clutch is not standard.

oh yeah someone answer the clutch question

Yeah, you're probably right. The bumper may have been replaced with a 2nd hand one that came with driving lights (what you have).

Don't forget the relays. Should work ok.

Don't have the bracket but you can have my factory double din stereo if you want. Use it to make a bracket or just jam it in there.

oh yeah someone answer the clutch question

Need more info, do you think the friction point is too high or too low right now? Come around and I'll have a test drive :(.

thanks for the offer gradenko

i might be round in a fortnight i think once the kit is on

if WORKS AUTO do me a good price

also the thread BOO5T is exactly the thread i read a while back and was looking for, so glad you found it, i was getting hell annoyed

I am going to rip the bar off etc and see what goes where and what i can do to those lights. like up the relays and stick some brighter lights in, as long as the plastic can handle it

umm the stereo brackets are $11.50 from nissan (EACH)

so I might just fork and buy some cos its too much stuffing around, then i will need one of those dual diversity antenna adaptors as well.

also anyone selling any 6x9's cheap, lemme know otherwise i will have to tap into my resources.

i can't believe series 1's are like so different in the small little things

1 more thing, is anyone selling a series II wing here in Perth

oh rofl rofl

pantene paul

man that is seriously gonna stick

Umm if i dont have the factory solenoid for the boost control and there is the line going from the wastegate to the air intake.....what does this mean for boost.

fark i hate modded cars

i havent learnt all this stuff yet and now its all done to the car

anyone....boost guage for sale at all?

2" size

    • Yep, there's a very minor drift left that happens a few seconds after letting go of the steering wheel, but not enough to bother me. Enjoying the car still!
    • Got you mate. Check your email!
    • I see you've never had to push start your own car... You could save some weight right now...
    • Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol.
