Hey guys! :action-smiley-069: Ima pretty new here but anyways, was looking at getting white LED number plate lights for my r34 GTT (coz the OEM ones are getting dull and too yellowish), done some rough research and saw T10 501 capless or W5W are good choice? (have no idea what they are/what they mean but anyways...)

so i found out some links and I am not too sure how reliable these lights are :unsure:

Hey mate, I haven't changed mine to LED yet but have tested quite a few LEDs (courtesy to my local eBay guy) and have found the T10 wedges to be the best. The first link is actually the guy I buy my LEDs from. Can vouch for his service, great guy and especially aftermsales, he takes care of you. There's a few guys in on it but ask for Tom if you need any help.

If you're gonna be that picky, then ideally the top right one in the photo would be the best IMO:

It gives a more flooded lighting, but the T10 wedge as seen in the lower photo would do just as good. If you're bothered, you can buy LED strips and wire it up that way, but quick n easy, bulb change.

icic so pretty much higher SMD = mroe widespread and brighter?

ima probably get some and try em out soon!

Yep. The more the merrier :)

My parkers are bright as compared to plenty non-halogen bulbs.

now the only question is: What colour =)

A icey white would look sex on black ;)

Mine are icey white. It's not an actual colour, but it's what it appears to be :)

When I bought it, I had to change 3 LED bulbs to find the matching pair. One had a blue tinge, then another had purple, then blue again, then white lol

    • Hi, does anyone know how I can, or can a moderator remove this advertisement please.  Has been sold a long time ago and would like to remove references. Thanks. 
    • There are adaptors that allow you to delete the booster and use an s15 clutch master cylinder.    if you want to keep the booster they are still available brand new 
    • I visited again today: It would appear they have painted the main body of the car and some parts of some of the panels, so I can say that I now have BMW parts in my car, much to the envy of @Dose Pipe Sutututu It is still covered in dust which is quite the tease but I did look at a few circumspect spots that will be behind bumpers and such and wiped some dust away: After my repeated begging to PLEASE DONT PAINT OVER THE ENGINEERING CERTIFICATE (you have to re-engineer the entire car if they do) I see THIS: Which is great. Excellent job tbh at least to me. A better non dusty example would be the backs of the doors that have been painted: Giving a reasonable contrast between old and new (I know the old isn't clear coated on the inside of doors). The door card will well and truly cover where the old paint is, you can see in the second pic some of the black butyl/whatever shit is sticking the plastic sheet behind the door transfer that has happened since it's clearly been stuck back on. The most maddening thing about this colour is every time I saw it in the wild it looks like another colour, same with photos of many cars with the same colour looking wildly different in every photo anybody ever takes and this is no exception. But stand a little further back and it suddenly looks dark AF. I did tell them when I was discussing which of the 70 million charcoal colours to choose from (a porsche one, a BMW one, or a R32 GTR one etc) that if they just ignored me and chose one at random I would probably never notice. Maybe they did. But the colour is supposed to be B39 (BMW Mineral Gray). Boring I know, but the R34 sedan (to me) really shows off it's boat-ness when you paint it in a bright colour like bayside blue or white or whatever else. I do have a fondness for AR2 Nissan Red, but decided against that because it'll have pretty odd contrast to random bits unpainted (like engine bay, bits of trim etc, and maybe it'll fade). And people will always fkin comment on AR2. Everything remains super dusty. I have tracking numbers for the new heads, as well as some Improved Racing goodies, but they probably will be a next year thing by the time they end up on the car. I did some maths on the heads and I know why nobody goes to this extent in Australia, because it's really not worth it, given I could have just CNC'ed my current heads, bought a FAST102/TB and used my current rocker/spring/cam combination and get a 383 stroker (or stroked a 6.0 GenIV bottom end to 6.6L) built for the same price of just the setup in the mail/on the floor here. Or I could have bought a LS3 and a Drysump system. And then have a complete engine to sell. Oh well
    • We just disconnected the vacuum line if I remember correctly, booster is still there. Is there a rebuild solution for the booster or a different adapter that will work for GTR chassis?
    • Yeah 4wd (boosted) has a recess in the firewall for the booster, and 2wd is flat - the example in the link shows the flat surface. When you deleted the booster, did you just attach the factory slave cylinder directly to the recess in the firewall with no adaption?
