New cars won't come out with black lights I don't reckon. Chrome tail lights is kind of the style with cars that have good fuel efficiency, and carbon neutral, which probably is the explanation behind it

notsureifsrs

Very serious, Prius Camry all of them a chromies. Even the aurion

I would think its more of a Toyota general styling cue.

But hey if I'm wrong and chrome tailights are supposed to be a representation of fuel efficient/carbonn neutral cars I'll shout you a beer at the next meet :P

Huh? Chrome started with the Lexus Altezza...from there it grew into a massive aftermarket of chrome tail lights for other makes and models, then the other manufacturers responded to the trend by beating customers to the chase (Holden dealers sell chevy badges now) and fitting them to their "sporty" hatches and mid sized cars etc. Don't know where the green connection is :/

I always thought of it as a connection. I don't see the 370z with chrome, where as all the fuel efficient/greenies seem to.. I don't know maybe just my observation but keep an eye out for a couple of days ull notice too

Not all sports cars will come with them, in fact, it's usually the cheap imitation sports cars like sporty hatchbacks...Mazdas, Mitsubishis etc.

Lol @ ufo i've been watching countless documentaries on them and on ancient aliens/technologies. Not convinced but I love watching that shit along with any archaeology spec docos

Are we alone? Who knows? Probably not, but don't think I'll meet an Alien in my lifetime. Interesting stuff none the less.

thoughts? (new fender + headlight that is) fair bit less weight which is a nice bonus just need to put rear fender eliminator on and my new DR-Z swing arm stickers :D oh and get some smaller indicators and red rim tape :P

you know i'll do special price for you on the LMs, so let me know if you want to test fit them or whatever

come past tullamarine on sunday?

ajay and neni are coming to check out the car. bring an LM :) lol

does anyone have a torque wrench I can use for 2 secs? just need to tighten my forks up again to spec.. my one only goes up to 20nm I need one that goes up to 30nm.. could be paranoid but don't want my forks breaking while riding :P

Looking good, front fender looks much better. Meant to reply to your other post and say if you need a hand I'm only free after 7:30ish...

    • I'm interested if anyone agrees with what you've said, and can give a good reason. Temperature of powder coating should be below any temperature you'd use to alter the wheel structure.  Powder coat typically 200 to 250. Annealing if that's what people are claiming would be occuring, starts at 300, and depending on the alloy, can need even up at 400+.   That's the only part I can think of that could cause an issue that people are believing it's from the rim losing hardness and becoming too soft.
    • Negative probe should be on the cars chassis. Positive on the wire.   Start as said above by unplugging everything (unplug the lights, and switches. Now at the switch, there is a wire from the fuse, to the switch, so out your positive on that terminal. It should read open circuit. If it reads something, especially a stupid low value, the short is somewhere between the fuse and the switch. If that's fine, now put the positive probe on the wire that goes to the headlight (at the switch plug). If it reads stupid low, the fault is from the switch, to the headlight.   Another quick test, is take the whole LED light setup from the left, and plug it into the right side, does it still blow the fuse? If you put the right hand side led light setup on the left hand side wiring, does the left hand side wiring now blow?  If the blowing fuse swaps from right to left doing this, your LED lights are the issue.
    • Anyone know if it's a problem to powder coat forged alloy wheel centers (Rays/Volk GT-C). some say it's bad and can damage the alloy, some say it's not a problem.
    • Hey guys, I'm reviving an old post but I'm finally getting around to working on this now. I removed the battery to get a better look at the wires and i traced the wires from the headlight to the fuse box in the engine bay, but the wiring looks fine? The wiring for the R/H headlight is 3 wires and then is bundled up with the large diameter wire that goes underneath the fuse box. I didn't take it apart yet. I know you said that its a short circuit somewhere between the fuse box and the headlight. But could it be the headlight switch on the dash? Also, i pulled out my multi-meter and set it on the Ohms, but i'm not sure where to put the negative probe and the positive probe.     
    • I have a 2 lt in Sydney. It was fitted on a R33 GTR, not used for several years . If you are interested email me on: [email protected] I'm not on this forum much .
