I wrote this up to hopefully stop the innundation of many threads asking the same question. What bulb for what car? (sticky maybe?)

I don't have all the information, so if you have some information on the other types of cars, please PM me with the information and I will add it :rofl: (31, 32, 34 and V35 Skylines)

---R33 Skyline---

All 4 headlights are H1, the reflectors in the headlight spread the light differently between high and low beam

The driving/fog lights are H3

The parker lights are regular wedge type parker lights, sometimes known as E1.

The brake lights are regular bulbs (type 1157) with the two prongs on the bottom.

The blinkers and reverse lights are regular bulbs (type 1156) with one prong on the bottom.

You have to turn them 90 degrees...

To get the drivers side one out, I suggest you take out the washer bottle and undo then move the fuse box back...

It's still pretty crap though, but it males it a whole lot easier...

To remove the parkers on the drivers you need to remove the washer bottles and the fuse box cover, that should give you just enough room. They need a 45deg turn and then they pull out, but they are tough little fûckers... Try the passenger side ones first to see how they come out...

T5 for parker? I always thought it was T10?

I thought it was T5 because I pulled out my T5s from the dash and put it in the parkers.. that's what i'm running in there at the moment, same lights as my dash ones. Perhaps they're socket compatible?

There should be a little thing on the indicator stalk that you twist to turn them on...

Legally, I am pretty sure they are supposed to be on a seperate circuit, and even more legally, you can only use them in foggy conditions... not doing so will result in a fine...

HOWEVER, I do remember hearing about people not having bulbs in there at all... like, not even the holder or the wiring, just the glass basically... kinda odd :D

I got a set of strobe lights in my foggies hehe

I dunno about R34s but the R33 parkers, rear number plate lights and dash dial lights are all T10s

Also foggies are T10 and the front indicators are interchangeable with T10s as well.

You could wire them up to the regular lights, but this would take a lot of work, and again, you would proably get in trouble for it...

The best idea is to just make your own switch for them... though you have to remember that if you get a different front bar, or a large front mount intercooler, all this time will be wasted anyway...

A very useful write up... thanks mate... yeah, I think sticky this one.

I have it bookmarked for now, hopefully when I do the other types of skylines, it will get stickied :P

Thanks mate.... very very helpful

Thanks :P

Can't wait to steal some time with mates cars to check the other types though :(

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
