I'm looking to replace my tail lights with the cooktop/ hot plate tail lights.i'm thinkin there must be importers out there who visit wrecking yards for parts. Is this so and does anyone know which company may do this?

Should be about $130 + shipping and commission

Thanks very muchly f/m, getting info like this from the likes of yourself is what makes this site sooo good. I'm hooked on the idea of these lights and will pursue this avenue. Excuse my ignorance but how do I get hold of Laurence. PM is.....???? sorry is he someone on this site?

lol all good, Laurence is one the members on the forum and a resident in japan who buys gear of yahoo auctions for people. PM = private message, which you'll be taken to if you click the link on "PM Laurence". Hope that helps :blink:

Those estimates I posted are very rough and will vary with exchange rate, but they should be in that ballpark.

Im pretty sure that the first link for Yahoo Japan is an auction for headlight surrounds.

Those tail-lights on ebay are out of control. Up to $610 already. Bloody hell.

That's madness! some people must really hate, loath and despise the choc block tail lights. Sure enough they aint sexy, but I can think of plenty better ways to spend that sort of money. For a week or 2 you'd wanna be driving behind your car admiring them and convincing yourself they were worth the small fortune you paid for them, Perhaps they'll increase the value of the car, who knows?

Still haven't heard from Laurence,perhaps he saw those lights on ebay and is flat out rumaging through wreckers yards or doing night raids on street parked C210's, LOL.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
