cant be flashing

cant be able to see the tubes

i believe theres also something about having red at the back as people might mistake it for brake lights or something.

stick with blue/green/whatever

fact is theres haters for everything, i dont run neons but if you have them and you like them then who cares what they think.

I cop plenty of flac for my girly man bag but that doesnt stop me :P

1. tube must not be visible

2. colour must not be any warning/emergency colour. ei. cops red, blue etc.

3. you can only install 1 neon tube/LED underbody for every 100hp that your car makes. so you'll need 400 hp+

dont get me wrong i love them also but all of the above is a must.

Hay all.... Couldn't really think of a section to put this in, so i thought id go local....

i recently obtained a set of LED underbody lights, (multicolour, flash patterns, bass sensitive) and fitted them, however, am a bit nervous to turn them on while driving around in case i get booked or worse stickered. Since laws vary state to state, i thought here would be a good place to check a) whether anybody else has a set of lights like this, and b)if anyone knows the actual legalitys of driving with them on.

it's ok, i've braced myself for the ricey/bling commments, but they do look cool...

cheers guys,

I have someunderbody lighting too on my magna, I've been stickered for it too which sucks.

Basically you are not allowed to see the tube AT ALL.

One time I got pulled up they let me off with a warning saying "hide it, sticky tape it, or paint it"

another time i got pulled up (stickered) they said tape or paint is not allowed, the tube has to be hidden.

they can also defect your car if your lights FLASH or >> CAN BE MADE TO FLASH << which is bs, because almost all of them can be made to flash, just tell them they cant be made to flash :P

There's a document on the DPI website about it which i printed off and keep in my car, i'll have a look for that shortly, have to start work now :D someone may have already posted it though

    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear! Stock quantities: NA1 Honda NSX - 1 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1990-na1-honda-nsx 1973 Toyota Celica LB 2000GT - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1973-toyota-celica-lb-2000gt 1968 Mazda Cosmo Sport - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1968-mazda-cosmo-sport 1970 KPGC10 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R - 2 left: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/1-18-extra-scale-1970-kpgc10-nissan-skyline-2000gt-r
    • When you say basic rebuild, you mean an oem rebuild?
