Hi,

 

So I had this project of shift light on steering wheel for my r34 gtr started for month ago now and I finally finished it.

Features are :

- 9x RGB leds can be set by user

- threshold RPM can be set by user

- custom PCB to get RPM from cluster (so it doesn't matter if it's a stock ECU or standalone ) !

- doesn't affect cluster/ecu behavior

- custom hairness (except 12v, there is only one solder or quick contact to do on a wire )

- based on OEM r34 gtr

To be confirmed but it should work on r32, r33 and gtts

 

I think I'm the only one to have something like this in the world

 

I got a lot of good comments when I show it to friends and so I have been thinking of selling some.

Steering wheel customisation will be done by a french company

I will do this during my free time, meaning I don't need to eat. It's just extra.

I'm an electronic engineer so I know what I'm doing (most of the time 😛 )

 

Price is not defined yet and will depends on how many people are interested and options asked for the stiching, carbons, color etc

 

If you are interested, don't hesitated to contact me

 

Best regards

 

PS : if this kind of sell is not allowed, please delete no problem

This looks awesome! When you say the LEDs can be set by user, is it fully customisable?

When I think of shift lights, I'm picturing it lighting up from the outside to the middle. Like below

. . . . . . . . . (all LEDs off)

| . . . . . . . | (outside LEDs on)

| | . . . . . | |

| | | . . . | | |

| | | | . | | | |

etc. then blink at the below for shift

| | | | | | | | |

 

Is that possible?

Also what is involved in getting it done? Have to send in the steering wheel I presume?

thank you for your comment ;)

Unfortunatly only the colors but if I have a lot of interested on this, I could look into it.

 

Well I will provided a kind of instruction/manual for installations and obviously support

Installation is rather simple, Basically it's some cover to removed, steering wheel, airbag, clsuter.

Connect custom hairness and that's it.

 

You can send your own or I can buy an used one or start from an aftermarket one

Hi Bogboss, I am also an electronics engineer. I my business if OG Innovations. One of my products would be perfect for this, I have a shift light controller that would be perfect for this.

I it’s a shift controller where the amount of leds can be set up to 64 leds. The Color segment size is customisable, Color’s are customisable and so is the animation. 
I also have a can bus version so it can be installed on new cars aswell. 
Pm me if you’re interested I can readily supply these. Powertune bought a few hundred of them to bundle with their dashes. 
I also have an array of various led bars, you should look at the dot star 2020 leds, you could fit twice as many in a wheel, I can make them to the shapes, sizes and specs to meet your needs.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
