Hi Guys,

I'm trying to find out what a pair of tail lights are worth and how hard they are to find for these two models skylines.....

The ones I'm talking about are the jap spec ones different to the ones we saw here.....

Are they rare?  Expensive??

Cheers,

Simon

Jap Hr31 tails lights are getting very hard to find indeed, and would fetch a fair price (guess around $170-$200 per light)

Don't know about the Dr30 taillights, but would expect them to be harder to find and most likely more expensive aswell.

There's quite a few people who have given up on getting the old school hotplates for their 31's... If you are thinking about getting a few sets sent over, make sure you get the centre garnish as well. :(

I don't think you'd have much trouble selling them provided they are in reasonable condition.

the late model dr taillights are similar to the S3 r31 ausi taillights ( dr30 ones don't have the smaller section for the indocators and reverce lights at the bottom) next to imposible to find here, the earlier ones the stove tops ones are not quite as hard to find and i wouldn't pay more than $200 for a set unless they were brand new, hint hint....thats what the stove tops look like at night? sort of the like the passage lights pictured about...

damm and i have no money at the moment its always the way... TUFSSS, if your mate can get late model DR ones in that condition at about the same cost them i'd say there would be a few of us here alone that would jump at the chance!

i bought a pair of HR31import lights not long ago ...simply coz tehy were cheap ..but i'm not a fan ..i ended up swapping them for a good pair of Ser3 31 lights instead...

i paid 210bucks including the center garnish and postage from brisbane for them.

      A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.

      Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.

      Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?

      Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.

      Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
