I'm pretty sure there is a DIY on this in the DIY section..

If you're talking about http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=172061&st=

I've already read it and it doesn't help as the lights are different ;)

Just need to know if anyone around here has done this possibly on a R34

What kind of bulbs are they?

did you see this thread

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=172056

there was final pics of the lights in evesdropping first reply

i haven't done it yet, still have to buy the LEDs

The lights aren't exactly the same as the ones in Dan's thread.

The lights i have are longer and hence i need to chop off the base of the light if i was to use the existing holders.

Don't know if i can cut these off though :)

Just an update guys.

I managed to fit them in with no soldering required.

Might write up a DIY when i have time.

All i did was to trin down the LED base and the OEM holders and wire up the wires into the factory holder positions.

Then i simply screwed them back in and wallah!

WOOT WOOT!!!

All looks good now.

Thanks for the offers guys.!!!!

isn't that what it said to do in the DIY thread?

If u have a R34, u know the globes will not fit in the holders no matter how much trimming is done.

I had to improvise and just let it hang on to the holders with th wires holding it in place.

    • 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
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
