Hey Guys! Can anyone tell me where I could find the illuminated SKYLINE garnish that fits under the boot lid but between the taillights of the R33.

Not sure of which model this came about in, but my ol' boys N/A R33 has it and it looks trick! It glows an aqua-blue colour when the parkers are on.

I have seen a S1 GTR in a mag with this same garnish. Any help sourcing one would be great!

Thanks

L33igh.

Thanks Guys, having seen them in a range of colours i thought it may have been a DIY thing. Thanks again!

It is a DIY thing, especially if you dislike the aqua illumination from the factory option.

You will find my tutorial HERE

Any questions do not hesitate to ask.

I am assuming dan_the_man has a R33 facia; Yes it will fit both a S1 and S2. You may need to splice into the 12V wire as you loom may not have the factory plug.

Nah it should be fine, when I made one for my car and went to hook it up there was already a + and - sitting there with terminals ready for something to be hooked up, it even had its own fuse and factory nissan jap tags, (thats how I know its factory)

na that looks shit and i hate it

lol are you joking me??

mate that looks nuts you've done really well.

Would you mind reposting the circuit diagram, the images on the sau servers arent working :dry:

and btw what paint products did you use?

Cheers Mitch.

Al, how much did it cost ya to get that sprayed? i remember reading in that other thread you gotit done professionaly. ive got mine prepped and stuff but i want it in the same paint thats on the rest of te car. not confident enough to do that myself

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
