Hi All

Question for any R34 owners out there. A while ago I fitted the Aero/Altia/Whatever you call it front bumper to my R34. This one came with the Foglights, as pictured.

Before this my car didn't have them fitted. So the foglights aren't wired up to anything.

I've also procured the switch for them that goes in near the headlight level adjuster (near right knee) (2nd pic, on left).

I like to keep things as clean and as factory as possible. I'd prefer to avoid having to hack in a custom loom to make them work, especially if the stock loom already has everything needed already there. There is a "fog lamp" fuse in the engine bay fuse box, which is live (20A). It looks as though the car's standard wiring loom has most if not all of the wiring, so I'm hoping this could be a simple plug-and-play affair. However I can't locate any of the wiring under the dash to hook into.

Does anyone have a R34 with these lights factory fitted and functional who could shed some light on where everything connects? Namely the switch, the lights themselves, whether or not there's any relays, and how the car behaves (eg, do the lights only come on with headlights, does the fog switch turn parkers/headlights on as well, etc).

Furthermore would there be anyone in Sydney with these lights who would let me have a poke around their car to work out how these are wired in? As you all probably know, there aren't any complete wiring diagrams floating around on the internet for these cars, so I'm forever having to poke around with a multimeter..

I have scoured the internet as best I can but the info I'm after just isn't out there.

Anyone able to help?

Thanks!

    • Updated with the latest <68mm Xona Rotor turbos.  The two XRA options are on paper some of the compressor performance I've seen 
    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
