Just wondering if the R32 gtst comes stock with the rear brake light inside the car. I have one on mine, but it keeps falling down. Ive tried everything to stick it up there from outdoor double sided tape, to some silicon crap. Any recommendations?

Cheers :(

I think all Skylines did not come with a rear brake light inside the car. Well with R32's that is. It would have had to be put in for compliance.

I recommend Head Gasket Sealent. That stuff can take up to 200 degrees C, so it can take a lot of heat and the sun won't melt it that easily. I use it to stick up my Turbo Timer. Its been the best so far.

head gasket sealant sounds a good idea, never thought of that one. Liquid nails is also pretty strong... i used that one for my turbo timer as well..

Althought not sure how it would go when being stuck on glass...

^^Its sorta a-bitch with these rear inside brake lights. Cuz the car doesn't really need them, I mean we all got like 4 extra large circle brake lights, its just AUS laws I guess.

Preferbley have it sitting on the rear parcel shelf and just stick it to the window.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
