I've noticed that one side of my heater unit does not light up anymore, upon removing the unit and having a look I found that it used unusual looking globes, almost like tiny UFOs! and it had like a rubbery blue cover over the globe.

Anyone know where to get these from? or maybe someone has a spare unit that all or some globes are working?

Cheers!

go to jaycar or altronics in northbridge, take a globe in with you and someone there to find you something similar

LEDs should cost you anywhere between $0.20 to $6.00 or you can buy a pack of 100 for $14.00

Haha $21 that’s ridiculous

Mikeys self pimpage never ends :D

What you can do is break the glass in the bulb and solder a resistor and LED in there. White ones only cost a few dollars and are a lot brighter than any incandescent light. The resistor should be about 330 ohms for most LEDs, if you got the specs of the LED I can calculate it for you.

There are different kinds of led's, and i don't know how the inside of the thingy looks, but i needa take it out in 3 mths time to replace the bulb as mine has blown too. Buy wide angle leds thou. Or you can buy the leds that change colour on their own. Nice touch to have a clown lookin AC unit :)

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
