hey mate,

what led's did u use for dash lights... i brought sum of the proper blue t10's (think thats what they are called) from 666DAN on here but only worked for a week or so and now none of my dash gauges light up (only warning lights and indicators do so).....

thinking it may be faulty dash clucter tho

bought them on ebay @ 20 bucks, they are the ones with about 5 little LEDs on the t10. 2 of them just stuffed up the other day and im looking into making some new ones myself which can handle the voltage, i'll let u know how I go.

Nice dash lights but not a big fan on the glitter interior. Just a suggestion, if you have the spare cash perhaps a new steering wheel. Im looking into getting one probably momo but not sure which model as yet, any suggestions ppl?

In re to 666Dan leds, originally he was supplying Leds that handle only 12volts of current but after a few complaints from ppl stating their lights would randomly flash & then eventually die in the ass he investigated the matter and discovered the dash voltage level in the skylines would randomly fluctuate. He now supplies 16volts leds which i have recently installed & so far so good but it's only been a week, so finger's crossed. Blue leds rock!

Nice work mate! Unique. I have the blue 5LED globes and none of mine work atm....they come on randomly but I havent had a full cluster in ages! Cobalt gauge selection tops it off. I wouldnt go changing steering wheel, I like the stock one, besides, jus as an example, here in Mildura I hear of people being done for not having an impact material on their wheels and replacing the airbag is a big no-no. Ur call tho. Do I see AVS rims under your car??

Once again, great to see individual tastes and ideas, even if they arnt everyones cup of tea!

Yeah, thanx mate. U can't c in the photos but at night under the proper light u can see my purple pearl through the clear which i put on top of the glitter spray ( the photos were done via my phone so they don't look right). Anyway I got the autometer cobalt series because they were the only gauge that matched the stock cluster and i wanted the needle in the gauge to be lit, but little did i know that they lit up blue at night, so i had to change my cluster lights cuz i hate it when they don't blend in. PS. those are AVS shoes u c, but will be white 19" Enkei soon i hope..

Well, it's RICE... however, I have to say, you tastefully 'riced' up your car. LEDS are nice and make the car look clean and sporty in my opinion whereas the consoles and glitter etc are your opinion so don't let anyone tell you what you should or should not do - -personal taste.

Overall, nice... I'll PM you as I need new dash LEDS and might need your help - I'm from Melbourne too.

Looks good Steve,

How did you take the drivers door control panel off? I've resprayed my dash a matt black, and now need to do the door handle bit.

 Hi, thanx. U need to look in the coin hole and u'l see a little black cap at the bottom, take the cap off with a small flathead screwdriver (from the right hand side) and u'l see a screw under that. Unscrew that and then you can yank it off, don't be afraid to use a little force because its clipped in aswell. Same goes for the passenger side.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
