Any take on why we cant get leds installed in our original rear light housing Ive seen plenty of different kinds on the net but they are all japanese or chinese they seem to get it right but they cost a fair bit like $800aud because your importing it and also buying the hole complete oem housing and lights. Dan666 apparently said his working on it like 1 year ago and said they had abit of problems with the leds not shining through the r32 lens. But again how do people in asia get it done. Looks Totally original when the lights are not on but once on they look mad! I know Dan can do the r34 lights, I kept messaging him every 3 months untill i gave up.

Im shocked no one in australia can fit them in using your original housing after all we have had these cars in australia for around 20 years. I wish i was electrical minded i would of figured it out by now by communicating with someone overseas and figuring out the procedure

Still the same problem, the R32 lens is refracting the LEDs too much and it just doesn't look right. I'd have to get a new board redesigned to suit the R32's which is not likely at the moment due to current commitments. I'm not even doing the R34's anymore due to a supply issue with the components.

Thats fair enough, its just strange your the only one in australia tackling this problem.

i just bought the whole assembly from yahoo auctions, removed my factory assembly and then put the factory covers onto the new led lights. not sure im keen on the "clear" led's anymore and thinking of going to red led's :/

Yes the clear look shit i have the red ones.. Can you tell me if they fit on your car exactly like the oem, No gaps and stuff from the oem covers? Tell me honestly do they fit perfect?

Maybe i just bought defected Leds? if so id have to go buy new ones.

there were pretty damn close to being perfect. i spent the weekend making sure they fitted spot on - a little bit of nouce makes it easy to get the little gap and bolts the holds them correctly to line up. then i just sealed them into the rear panel with a sealant....

but now i think i wanna pull em all apart for the red ones....lol

    • 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.
    • 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.
