  1. I’m having an issue with my R34. I left my headlights on and the car battery died. I went out to jump start the car and left my headlights on. It obviously didn’t start, so I turned my headlights off and started the car again. But now my headlights don’t seem to turn on at all, and only 1 of my high beams work. I checked all the fuses in the engine bay and they all are good. I thought maybe the bulbs somehow got blown but I checked for continuity and they seem okay. I next checked the wires connecting to the bulb for continuity and they seem fine too. I’m wondering if maybe I somehow fried the turning signal stalk by starting the car while the lights were still on. 
     

    Any ideas of what might be happening? 
     

    thanks in advance! 

  2. I imported a R34 recently that sat on a Nissan dealership lot for over a year. Because of this, my wheels started to rust and pick up all sorts of weathering on them. I’ve cleaned the wheels and done a vinegar and aluminum foil session on them to try to remove the rust but it seems like there may be an easier way. I thought maybe power washing them would help but I’m not sure if that may damage them. the rims I have are the stock GTTs for reference. Is there any other methods I can use to help remove the rust and gets these things back to normal? The front of the rims is generally ok, a little paint wear here and there and that’s it.

     

    I’ve attached a couple photos. The original condition and the cleaned up version.

     

    Any help is much appreciated.

     

    Thanks!

  3. Thanks for the help!

    I ended up removing the shelf!

    For anyone visiting this thread in the future, this is what I did.

    • Remove rear seats
    • Go into the trunk and find the clips at the top of the trunk that are holding the parcel shelf to it. There should be a few. My clips were blue if that helps at all
    • Once that's done go into the back seat
    • Push down in the area where the C-pillar piece meets the shelf. They should come apart and you should see a slit where the panel slides into the shelf
    • Do the same on the other side
    • Pull! The shelf should remove.

  4. I'm trying to remove my rear coilovers on my 2000 GT-V, but I'm having a bit of trouble.

     

    I currently have the rear seats out and I'm looking to get at the top bolts of my coils. Problem is I have the parcel shelf in the way, and I can't figure out how to get the C-pillar trim off before removing the parcel shelf. I've been doing some reading that says it'll just pop out if I pull on it. I've pulled on it, but it doesn't seem to budge. I also don't see how I can pull it off when the top seat belt is bolted over top of it. I guess I probably have to remove that. Is this really the right approach or am I missing something?

    I've attached some pictures of my current progress and which pieces I'm talking about.

     

    Thanks!
