Hi guys. Noob question again, but no slamming please.....

I'm trying to tap into the boot light wiring for my led strip that I'm going to install into my boot for a bit more light, but I'm not exactly sure if it's 100% safe to hard wire the strip's wiring to the bootlight wiring. Can anyone enlighten me on this? any info is much appreciated.

Being LED it wont draw much current so wont be an issue. Either tap into the positive and negative and run to the LED strip, or cut the wires and connect them to your strip if you dont want to utilize the original lighting.

two ways of doing it:

remove the original light and tap your new one in place or find the pink wire coming off the boot lid and tie the erath side of your LED strip to that and the other side to +12v.

both methods willl work find and as fro current issues - no problem. there is a 10A feed back there to the light.

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
