I like the grey strip, provides some contrast and division

Yeah l like it on your car, and l liked it on mine when l had the stock silver wheels. But against gold, its just too much.

Add in the dark window tint ... and it just doesn't flow very well.

you can do em any colour really... just go to your paint shop and ask for the colour your after mixed in with clear gloss (50 50 ratio should be good) and get em in acrylic... apply em the same way you would on as the night shade... just give em a nice srub with soapy water and a scourer and then max and grease them and spray... im gonna do my r31 wagon tail lights in white... should look good on an all black car... heck might go further and get something wicked airbrushed on the lights... some evil eyes or sumthing

cheers

i just bought some nightshades today, whether i do it i dont know yet, worried about getting a defect and then having to try and hunt down some more lights.

it comes straight off with a bit of metho and some elbow grease :D

I#*@&^*!&!!! i just got my series 2 taillights from japland and the 2 corner lights with the indicators on them aren't in the box!! this sucks donkey balls so much, i hope they're just in another parcel or been accidently sent somewhere else

total to my door was about $500.

Mind you these were the cheapest ones i saw going at the yahoo auctions, all the others went for well over this. i just got lucky (well not with delivery.... @$*&^@$*(&^@$*!!!!!)

Edit:

Just got a reply email from Slidewize. turns out the seller didn't send all the lights in the first package, then they purhcased another part for a different buyer, and he was going to send the other lights in that package, but then that package got cancelled, and the lights were forgotten about. they just found them and have sent them over at their cost.

Well hopefully in a week or so i'll have a full set of lights

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
