R33 GTS4 owners, do your fog lights (right next to front indicators) work? It seems there is wiring for them behind the light, but theres no fog switch on the stalk off the steering column?

Dave, tnx for your reply.. I'll have another look tonight to see if I can pop it out.. Lenno, Probably suggest you do what Demon Dave has suggested, Have a look at the motor.. I'll take some pics with the digi cam may be able to help ya. As for the defogging, I read in a Skyline Manual that when the rear demister is put on, the side mirrors have defogging built into them.. and just the rear demister button to the right of the hazard switch turns it on.. On a real cold/foggy morning if I park on my lawn, the side mirrors get fogged up - The passenger side one clears really quickly but the drivers side remains the same.. Cheers

I had a look on the weekend, i can remove the mirror from the door, (pop off the plastic cover and undo the 3 screws), but how do i get in behind the plate glass? i tried popping it off but I didn't wanna bust the glass

Ey man tnx for your reply.. Any ideas how to remove the mirror? I think I need to get the multimeter out and do some diagnosis Cheers

Hi All, Ever since I have owned my R33 the drivers side electric motor hasn't worked, and I noticed today that the de-fogging function on the glass doesn't work either. Passengers side is fine though.. Have had a look in the fusebox but it all seems in tact. Any ideas people? chicane :burnout:

yo dox, can u get on mSN

Yo PVA, Nice ride man.. The rims look pretty cool but I think the adrenalines are a bit sharp for the skyline's nice smooth lines.. Something like the Lenso Concept 5's prolly are more my taste but hey I love the HR Racing 109's still.. mmmmmmm decisions decisions http://www.donnellans.com.au/wheelsfolder/...cing/hr-109.jpg What profile tyres you running, and what width rim? Cheers :burnout:

side panel at the front? what U mean dude

G'day Dox, Thanks for your reply - Can you confirm if they are 5 Zigen rims and how much you were interested in? Cheers

Hi all, After going around to a few tyre/mag places today, seems some places don't seem to care too much about offset.. In regards to maintaining the correct offset for my vehicle, with the 15x6" rims on there at the moment (they have an offset of 40mm), if I increase the width by 1" to 17x7" is this new offset calculation correct? Increase of 1" width = 25.4mm 25.4mm / 2 = 12.7mm 40mm + 12.7mm = new offset of 52.7mm required? Seems a lot of mags i like come with 40mm offset.. Is this OK to use? Thanks in advance chicane :burnout:

Thanks a lot for that image from the owners manual alistern - Just went down to quickfit in King St Melb and spoke to a guy there about what would be suitable.. Not that many rims to suit Oh well, the search has begun

Just spoke to a guy @ donnellans, I think ill go past there on the way home today.. He said that the 5 Zigen's are pretty pricey as they are a fully imported jap rim.. but said there are quite a few other makes which are a bit cheaper with that design.. A guy @ one donnellans said its a 35/40 offset another said its a 42 offset so yeah Hrmmmmmmmmmmmm anyone got any definites on this? Cheers

Cheers for your prompt reply NI5MO, Found on the donnellans website they are 5 zigen rims.. the "5" did it Any ideas bout the offset? Cheers :burnout:

Also does anyone know the make of this rim on this skyline? Im probably going to go for a similar design (if I can get it in the 4 stud).. Cheers!

Hi all, In the very near future I plan to purchase a set of 17" rims and tyres for my 1993 R33 GTS4. Before I get my heart set on a certain set of rims, does anyone know what the correct offset is for my vehicle? Currently it has 4 Stud 205/60/R15 (i think) Thanks in advance! chicane :burnout:

G'day all, I drive an R33 GTS4 (NA) on my P's still.. Insurance was the deciding factor with an NA or a Turbo..

make sure you do the diag for the aircon in full sun (on the sunload sensor) otherwise it will come back with error 25.. see how it goes in full sun cheers

hi there I have an r33 gts4.. and as for the guages, I have wondered about the oil pressure guage myself.. yes mine at idle around 1/2.. and then when i rev it it goes up.. as for temp guage, well that goes to about 1/2 way as well (after warming up of course) hope this helps cheers chicane
