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.

I've seen the DR30 ones with the two round circles inside the squares, are these local or JDM?????

All DR tail lights are JDM, i beleive the ones you are talking about there are the S1 tail lights...

      Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open

      R34 power steering

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.

      Skid pans in/around Sydney?

      By Kinks · Posted

      I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
