All Stars Get Their Name In Lights

[donnie]

hey all..

just wondering if someone can help me..my friend has a 40th aniversary r33 and where it says "skyline" at the back of the car between the tail lights is apparently supposed to light up..when he had a look there are wires there and they are connected but nothin happens...i have a white r33 so i had a look at mine (its just painted white)..and there are no wires where he had them..we checked fuses and put it in reverse and everything..anyone know??

as far as i know, no skylines came out with that option, i thought it was an aftermarket thing.

I seem to remember that it was an accessory from nissan, along with a few other cool things.

there was a thread yonks ago on em.

i remember seeing an r33 gtst ages and ages ago, a few years at least, with the skyline logo on the back lit up a soft green color, surely its a aftermarket item.

Nope its factory option as mine has it, they do fail over time and the replacement cost from nissan is $750.

$750

bit expensive for something that just lights up, be cheaper to hook one up yourself

[Goon]

Ask funkymonkey, i think he had one on his R32 Gtst, apparently it was a factory option.

Hmmm my 40th Annv doesn't do that.. have to check it out..

amuses me when people get in and the green lights up around their feet.. first couple of times people said "you put neons in did you.." nearly fcuking slapped them out of my car..

would love to get a list of options that you could get with the 40th annv. does your friends have the antenna heigh switch - lets you put it up 1/2 way or full..

also - mine came with fog lights - but looks like they've been removed and cut off - still got the wires + switch on the blinker stick..

what do you mean lights up green? what is it?

any pics?

[MR R33]

ask liz on the forums, iv seen hers, the bit that says skyline lights up green and it looks hot at night, but i have also seen them light up in different colours, its easy to put one together if you really wanted it.

I got mine working again yesterday after a few months of putting off having a look at it.

All i did was pull it off (4 bolts and one plug in the boot), it had some water in it, so let that drain out then cleaned up the contacts on the spade connectors, checked connections with multimeter, put it back on and to my surprise it works again!

[KamikazeR33]

its a factory option for any r33, its in the nissan fast system.

connect the wires to the brake lights if they arent connected

if u dont have any wires, go out and buy a series1 panel, paint around the skyline bit the colour of ur car, then put an LED strip behind it... bingo
