nice buy mate! :)

but seriously, those lights need to die in a fire. as for wheels, meh, so what if everyone has doriteks, they look decent and they fit, so why not? and damo has a set for sale for fair cheap, so it might be worth looking into.

1998 is probably compliance date

nope, engine capacity - 1998cc is 2L

sorry if it's been pointed out.. cbf reading whole thread :)

buy these, much more sexier than doriteks ;)http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.p...p;#entry4573927

Its an SR, so it fits?

Yeah, those rims are baller :P but would look good. Dont buy my rims unless your planning on a brake upgrade, lol

every second person that gets a new sr s13/180sx thinks the build date is 1998 over on ns.com :P

I guess I fit into that noob section :)

Just checked, it is 1998CC (stupid me) and was made 1995/07. I never really looked too closely at the plate and it was the previous owner who pointed it out to me and said it was the build date.

Rims are still a while off, hardly have enough money to pay for stamp duty OR insurance!

First will probably be side window visors, head unit, Type X spoiler, and either tint current lights or get Type X lights. Not in any particular order.

I just need to wait for my bank account to build back up again.

PS: I love my car.

Hey Nathan, I got it sorted, what I thought was the year was just the engine capacity. I was told it was the year but didn't look close enough. I did FAST it and that matches the 95/07 build date I found.

Damo I just like the looks of them. Not sure how/if it'll effect driving or vision, but I love the looks of them, as long as they're the proper ones (and not just the simple fold over type).

Not like you can see much, but I know there are some dodgy ones, I like this kind:

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
