They're your fog lights.

The button for them is below your rear demister button just above your headlight stalk to the right of your steering wheel.

If you have had projector style lights fitted to your car at any stage they probably havn't been reconnected upon putting them back to standard, correct me if im wrong but they only type-M 32's and GTR's have projector lights fitted standard , type-m have fog lights in front bar usually if they are still 100% standard, therefore this switch would turn those on. Im not sure bout GTR's.

All i know mine hasn't been tinkered with and thats what that button does, i use them instead of my parkers in dusk and dawn situations, they have more intensity than your parkers, but they def. not high beams. You couldn't drive around with them on by themselves in complete darkness.

oh, and they are white, not yellow, alla Silvia style.

Mine originally came with projector headlights.

In the centre console is a switch with the same symbol as the button below the rear demister button. It would turn on the parkers but not the fog lights, I didn't have a clue what was it's purpose. Today i found that the fog light button below the rear demister was not connected, found the plug for it connected to another plug which traced back to the switch in the centre console. Unplugged it and plugged it into the fog light button below the rear demister button and it works! :)

The button turns on the parkers front n rear and the fog lights.

A big thanks to you guys for the helpful advice, cheers. :)

Yeah, they are your foglights as THENIG stated.

But one thing though, mine is a GTR but i still have those lights, instead of projectors. Supposedly N1? I have no idea

Yeah i've been scouring ebay for a while now looking for projector headlamps, and i saw somebody trying to pass off what looked like standard 'non-projector' headlamps as 'N1' GTR lamps, they ended up going for some ridiculous price, the photos were pretty clear and I'll be damned if they were any different from my standard GTST lights that are on my 4door, so if any1 has projector headlamps and wants to swap them for 'genuine N1' spec heaplamps, then PM me. :)

No seriously, i would love to see what the real differences' are.

The genuine N1 headlights (no projector) had brackets to hold the GTR's grille on while the other non projector headlight don't have the brackets? I'm assuming they're the only difference because I'm pretty sure those 'lower spec normal' ones don't have these brackets and the GTR's need them to hold the grille on.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
