I personally do not like them as I think the stock lights look nice as they are - moreover, if you just rely on the double-sided tape to stick these eye lids on, they will not stick for long and part of them will become undone - some people super-glue them on which is not recommended as if you want them off they will leave permanent scaring etc.

The above are just my ideas.

Regards,

Look fellas, with Eyelids, you gotta be really careful as sometimes it can make the car look worser not better... it's personal preference so you gotta modify, add cosmetics to your ride the way you want it to be and the way you want it to represent you on the road - stuff what others think.,.. it's your ride, your the owner of it, do it to your heart's content.

There's a new trend out nowadays... eyelids that are pad of a kit or bonnet so it looks stock and it actually just covers on from the bonnet and is not separate, this makes it look tough...

I like the eyelids, it sets them apart from the stock looking front ends. All up painted they cost me about $60, I had them on my car for about 4 months until it went to Willowbank and they both flew off at 3/4 track. I was pissed off at the time, but i spose its pretty funny now. At 120mph the double sided tape is shit. Like it was mentioned above use sycaflex or silicone.

This a pic of my car with the eyelids, my opinion is it definately looks better.

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

    • 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  
    • 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.
