^^ have you had any problems with the police?

none as of yet *touch wood*

as long as it's a good balance between allowing the yellow through and looking dark it's not really noticeable unless someone points it out to you. one of those subtle things that you cant quite put your finger on.

it's easily removed with a solvent - that said, reversing is a bitch with the windows and lights tinted

has anyone got pics of their indicators done in that nightshades stuff? i tried my local repco and auto barn and they only had the spray. does normal (window) tint film work on indicators?

I did the spray on my indicators (yellow) just to see what kinda look it gave, and it was sweet.

Just tape around it and spray away.

Ended up swapping to the nismo smoked indicators... same thing.

You can get the stuff off fairly easily, but I would recommend a clear gloss over the top cause it does dry almost matt...

I do need to give them a gloss coat..

The lower black strip was done with vinyl...

Its done on the outer of the lens, I guess I could of done it inside the lens but that would mean breaking apart the assembly which is different to stock ones.. If your using the stock light it will definitely need to be done on the outside of course...

Ohh good! :P

I just did the reverse and indicator light on my four door 34 be cos its seperate to the round break lights i wanted to match it to the car (its black) and give it more of a classic skyline look. I just wanted to make sure it was ok to do it to the outside because of sun exposure and such. Just to clarify have u used anything to protect the spray like a gloss coat?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
