Does anyone out there know where I can get 1999 R34 GTR MFD Sharp LCD screens. The sun shagged mine so I need another one and I'm not to keen on buying the whole display unit. Any help would be most appreciated as I've trolled the net and cant find anything.

Thanks

Is the inside of the screen all cracked? If so, it's the polaroid film.

Which can be bought for about $15 posted, takes about 20mins to replace and done, you'll have a brand new screen again :)

Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

Get it from 3Dlens Coporation in Taiwan.

You need to remove AC vents, MFD shroud, unplug MFD, unscrew the screen, unplug the screen, remove glass lens, remove old film, clean screen, apply new screen.

It's probably a job that I'd do it for $60-70 inc film :)

Thanks heaps Charles !

This i can do myself i just need 2 get the film :thumbsup:

No worries at all :)

Mine looks very similar. Will the film replacement job fix the "orange boarder" around my screen where the peeling is at its worst?

Yup it would. Colours from a LCD screen will look distorted without that film or with a bad film. So once you replace it, it will look brand new again.

Charles i did the screen last nite.

Man it wasnt easy !!! hahahaha

Takin off the old film was a misson

But the end result is well worth it

Screen is brand new again woot woot !

Thanx heaps :thumbsup:

Haha good to hear mate :)

Getting to the screen wasn't that hard, but pulling the old film off and cleaning is the hardest part lol.

Post up a pic :P

Oh and also, for those who hasn't done it yet, make sure no dust or ANY particles or residue gets under the new film, as it will look like a dead pixel once you turn it on haha, happened to me, true story :P

Lots and lots of elbow grease and some bug spray to clean off the dregs.

What a marathon! But it does look a thousand times better than when I started, and keeping it out of the sun is priority number 1 from now on.

Thanks Charles89 you saved me a fortune!

No worries mate, glad I saved you from buying a new screen :)

Maybe post up a pic of your new screen :P

Anyone from Brisbane attempted this? Im worried I would screw something up he he...

Lol, unless you accidently stab your screen with a screwdriver, you aren't gonna stuff it up :P

A few advices if you attempt it.

-Remember how to pulled it apart

-Make sure you carefully pull our the screen plug from the board.

-Be patient when cleaning the screen after you pull off original film, because 1 dot of residue = 1 dead pixel.

-Make sure you put all the screws back in afterwards

Trust me, if you can opperate a screwdriver and have a decent enough memory to remember where everything goes, you will be fine :)

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
