wouldnt it be really obvious if it was rear wiper. i mean, if you press it, your rear wiper will start, and then we wouldnt be having this discussion :D

so i'm guessing you guys have the rear wiper control on the left stalk with the regular wiper? like r33?

Attached is a picture with a button that I do not understand. What does it do?

thanks

That is a mirror heater switch ( it heats up the 2 exterior mirrors) and its located on the right side of the steering wheel. This is not a guess its fact , the reason i say this is because you are going to switch it on and probably nothing will happen. I hear you say why? Because the compliance shop have changed the the glass in the mirrors ( because they dont comply, no "E" mark on them ) , the heaters are on the actual glass!!!

If you take one of the mirrors off you will see the lug there going nowhere.

There are also heating panels on the front and rear windscreen where the windscreen wipers sit.

It's designed so that you can get in your car in a snowy environment and flick the switch and your wipers wont stick to the window.

Chances are you have a red and white light in your rear bar like mine?

You have a mountain car like me!!!

Bass Junky is correct, it is actually for the Front windscreen demisters. Not all R34s come with it as it was an option.

If your car has the original windscreen, you will see the demistera near the wiper blades

ahh sweet i think we're on to something now. bass junky, indeed, my car has one white reverse light and one rear fog light, and a person who could decypher japanese tells me my rego sticker (still have the original jap one lol) is from hokkaido (the northern island of japan).

hmm mystery solved? will have a look at the windscreen in the morning - don't know if it's the original one....

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
