strutto.. i love you dude... weird shit was that it was the "tail lamp" fuse that stuffed my dash lights?!? Anyway... you're a champ.. thanks for your help.

will do... are they near the hicas thingy??

Hi ppl, I’m in need of some urgent help… I’ve sold the skyline, so I thought I’d be nice and go and put some fuel in it for the buyer… anyway turns out that I get defected on the way to the servo for a boost gauge. I pulled the gauge out and took it to a local workshop to get the defect cleared, then as I was driving home to put the gauge in I accidentally touched both of the power wires (the wires that connect to the bulb in the gauge) with my fingers. Immediately this shut off all of the dash lights. I noticed that all the warning lights still work (hazards, handbrake, engine, etc…) the only lights that don’t work are the instrument lights that illuminate the speedo and other gauges. I thought it may have been a fuse, but I have pulled out the associated fuses (used the fuse chart found here http://www.overflow.250x.com/tips.htm) and replaced them with new ones, but the dash is still not working. I thought that it may have blown the dimmer, so I have cut the wires going to the dimmer and joined them together.. still nothing. Next, I cut the wires going to the boost gauge, still nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions?? The bloke is supposed to be coming later tonight to pick up the car and I would really like to have the problem fixed by then. Any help would be hugely appreciated.

That's my mate Rob, he doesn't use the forums. I followed, then drove infront of a silver SII R33 this morning on the M4 east bound from Cumberland HWY up until parramatta rd at the end of the M4. Plates were APU-66U. I was in a black Accord Euro. Nice car dude!

sorry about the lack of replies dude... I've been flat out lately, I've had a promotion at work which has kept me busy for the last couple of weeks. Plus I pulled apart all of our PC's at home and rebuilt them with bigger HDD's and CPU's so I haven't had any net at home for close to a month.

I've had my xbox modded and it works perfectly (cheapmod modchip and EvolutionX dash). I watched the guy go through the modchipping process and it looked really interesting. Does anyone here know how to modchip an xbox? I really want to learn the whole process and I'll offer a case of your fav poison for someone to go through it with me. Oh yeah... must be in sydney. Cheers.

Hi ppl, I'm trying to create a small flash movie but I can't stand macromedia flash (too complicated). Is there any other software to create flash movies that is much simpler to use? (i'm thinking click and drag type stuff) Cheers.

thanks for the compliments on the car and while we're handing them out, that exhaust of yours sounds awesome! What is it?

just like to say thanks for letting me tag along to those who were at the P6C carpark at homebush. I couldn't stay for long due to the whole valentine's day thingy but it was nice to finally meet some of the ppl from this forum.

ok... one more question... Which way is the best to get to C6.. Hill Rd or Lane Cove/Mona Vale Rd?

ok jus to make sure... some of us are meeting at 9:30 in the homebush carpark yeah?

I'll be there with BATMBL if it isn't raining... first time out with anyone from SAU, should be awesome!! :headspin:

Hey GTR032... i think I drove past you on saturday on the F3. I didn't even see you pulled over there, then my gf was like "that was a nice skyline pulled over back there".. "I'm like WHAT?? WHERE?? you should have told me!!!" Sorry dude, I would have pulled over for sure had I seen you.. I'm all for this "skyline family" thingy Check my sig to see if you saw me drive past... I'm pretty sure it would have been you though, how many other skylines would have been pulled over on the F3 near the Peats Ridge exit??

what sort of parking is available for spectators? Can you park around the back near scrutineering area or near the garage carpark area? Dang i wish i could get there at 5... bloody working 'till 7:30 !@#$
