It just occured to me the other night that i noticed the seatbelt icon on my dash(little dude with the seatbelt-on sign) doesn't come on anymore...

cos normally when the driver's side seatbelts aren't buckled in the icon will light up etc etc....now nothing at all....

Anyone had this happen to them? Any ideas what's going on?

thanks;)

No only the rear belts are changed. Front ones are factory. Yea check the electrical connection under the seat and then the bulb in the Dash. If that doesn't fix it,,,give up it's not worth working out.

Pretty sure mine has been changed then, i have had 2 skylines and both times no seatbelt light, are their supposed to be wires, or a connector coming from the seatbelt?

cheers

I want the factory seatbelts! :) Well at least for the front, who cares about the rear passengers :)

Incidentally, even though my car was registered as a 4 seater, the compliancers nicely left the middle factory seatbelt in place, but under the seat. The previous owner probably didn't even know they were there :)

Does anyone know if the S14/15 200SX front seatbelts are the same as the R33's? It might be a good way to get some nicer seatbelts legally. Ones that use the seatbelt light, retract properly, and have that plastic thing to hold the belt off your shoulder.

Sorry guy's I should have worded my reponse a little better,,,,what I meant to say is the Fronts have to be changed as well,,,but It's quite legal for the Compliancer to buy New Factory Belts and install them. Thats how most of us still have the light working on the dash. Go check the white tag on your front belts,,,,Mine has Genuine Nissan belts with a built date on it,,being 2001.

JimX,,,I have no idea but mine have 2001 stamped on them and they have to be factory belts,,,.I'm thinking though if the tongue of the actual belt is the same as the buckles (this is what turns the light on and off) then you would only need to buy the buckle. Why not pop out to Justjap and ask them,,,,they might/should have buckles,,,you could try one.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By 677_GTR · Posted

      Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
