It looks like custom work done by a company in the states called Clear Corners - they have some way to clear the color from any lights, you just send in your lights and wait 2 weeks or something ... maybe intense UV ravs or something?

I have seen all sorts of cool things that have been done by these guys, but you can bet that the R33 ones would be very rare as Skylines are almost unheard of over there.

i've seen that clear lights on a white R33 GTST with no plate IMPRTS (from my memory which isn't v. good). it didn't look too bad on a white car, though no way in hell i would spend money on getting rid of my red stoves... what would those lancer drivers see at night then???? :shake:

the red stove rear lights is the trademark of our skys!

it's what makes our cars stand out in the distance..

whenever you're on a cruise and lose someone, you can spot the sky a mile away cause of the stove.

no way I would wanna mod it in anyway..

Hell I brought mine cause I was sick off looking and drooling over all the ones I would see on the road.

Now they can have a look at mine..

My car is all Silver with Charcoal front, rear, bottom bits, was thinking of painting the surrounds of the Stoves to match the bumpers and bring out the lights even more.

I would also like to have the interior area of the head lights silver instead of black.

Clear tail-lights dont generically look good. Like i mean, just cause a tail light is clear don't mean it looks good. They don't look too good at all. Red tail lights look alot beter on Skylines. Some cars look good with clear tails - Some don't - and Skylines are one of them :D

Oh - and they do look photoshopped in that pic. If they were real you'd think the back of the tail light would be a bit more reflective? Like looking through the red ones - the back of the tail light looks bright and metallic - as if it were silver, right?

In that pic it looks like it's a flat grey colour

*shrugz*

Who care's anyway - they're ugly we already established that :D

Rock em on ....

I want em now ..... damn it ... i would mount some REAL xenon units behind them, they come in red (check out the farnell catalogue $100each) ...

But who knows if it would work like i want it too ...

It would be an expensive way to fine out ...

i supose i should be more concerned with gettin the car fixed first ...

ALHAIL is from Newcastle I think. I saw him at a mini cruise we had around Newy. It's one of the better looking skylines I've seen and it has a damn loud exhaust. The clear lights definitely made it stand out, but as everyone else is saying, I'd never get rid of my stovelights.

    • Google tells me that's a Japanese Rat Snake... 2m long? Man I think Australia has traumatised me to think all snakes are dangerous unless they're pythons. Also... "16 years later..." is that a record on SAU @PranK?
    • Yep, I really miss mine. I dont, however, miss it's understeer. Hard to find a genuine 'Sport' model these days. That sounds awesome! Good fun and great result!  I'd love to do a 1/4 in mine now that its reasonably healthy with the tune. I last did a run in my white GTR, I think it was a 12.3 and I can't remember the mph and I think the little E90 might be quicker.
    • FWIW, I made 372kW on a Mainline dyno, with a stock motor (bar head studs & usual bolt ons) on E85 (pretty timid timing in the mid range) and it blew up after a year of track use. Probably got like 5~6 Wakefield track days and 1x skid pan somewhere in between.
    • Plus, if you want to shoot for over 300rwkW, the Z32 won't really cut it and retaining the PowerFC is getting to be a poor choice. You're going to be much happier with management that can actually see what's going on and have a hope of stopping it from going bad when something breaks (think oil pump). So, the $$ situation is probably different to what you think it is.
    • 350-400kw will not keep that basically stock motor basically stock very long, especially for track only use. It will decide to need a rebuild pretty quickly. I'd go smaller, and not cheap out with a Pulsar item based on older tech. Get a G25 550/660. Just better in every way. Don't think about changing a turbo until AFTER you change your injectors (S15 injectors x6? What CC are those?) and coils/fuel pump. They won't keep up with any aftermarket turbo.
