I brought LED TAIL lights for my r32 GTR from JUST JAP in Kirrawee, SYDNEY. They dont fit on perfect! one side fits different to the other side and I CANT STAND IT. I played around with the lights so much that i eventually snapped the thread coming out of the lights AHHHHH!. Im willing to purchase another pair i just want to know what brand make them the best. These leds lights are JJR brand ??? Has anyone come up with this experience and please tell me how you fixed it. A place called Sports_lights in Melb are selling the LEds but i dont know if they are the same make. Could it be just the actuall pair i brought were defective? Because when i took it back they recon that they are aftermarket and they will never fit as good as new, I think thats bullshit ive seen heaps of aftermarket rear lights fit pretty much perfect. Can anyone out here give me advice from experince or word of mouth. THankss i feel like i just through $359 in the bin!

take it back and complain if it doesnt fit

shud be covered by warranty dude.

and also u go ta gtr, why u wanna ruin it wiht led chrome lights for? :D

I now snapped the bolt and the leds look nice its not chrome The lens is still red the only thing you see diff is the blinker is clear and the leds coming out of the red lense. Do you think they will return it if i snapped bolt trying to tighten it LOL Do nismo sell led lights cause i know they will make the best ones, i cant seem to find where to buy them from.

What do you mean by that? :mellow:

I mean, I'm going to make up a set of boards, rip a pair of the old housings apart and fit them in there.

look here for a set of 33 lights done diy:

I'll be doing it a similar way, but giving the board design to a professional pcb manufacturer to knock out so that everything is identical.

His light use more led elements than the yahoo.jp pictures as well.

someone has taken second hand stock lights and then ripped them apart and put LEDs in them, so its gunna fit just like factory :mellow:

But i emailed Slidewize and he goes that they are aftermarket aswell and said nothing will fit as good as the NISSAN parts, so the lights he sells in japan are made out of china aswell, but he has never ha dcomplaints about them, i cant see all the lights fitting like shit. im just wondering i think it was a bad batch of JJR lights or something thbat i bought.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
