Hi guys,

A newbie question, I noticed that some R32's have indicator lights just above the GT badge on the side of the car and some don't. Why is that? Can anybody shed some light on the matter?

I hope to own one soon hopefully & would appreciate any answers, Cheers =)

Depended on the comply company's interperpretation of the rule.

Indicator has to be visible from the side at some specified angle of view.

Easiest fix was to fit a side mounted indicator.

Then it was argued by some, that the existing front indicator was already visible from the side and it complied.

Got to love all the rules.

Same thinking behind the extra bumper-bar mounted stop/tails on Patrols etc which have the spare partially hiding the factory items when viewed from certain angles.

Or cutting some of the Skyline's and Aristo's etc tail light wiring so that only 2 out of 4 work.

Remember how magnified rear view mirror glasses had to be replaced by flat glass in those days too. Now even Commos have the left mirror with magnification from factory.

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.  
    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
