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;)

i thought that the seatbelt fastened feature was removed and seatbelts replaced during compliance?

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 light!! you guys reckon there would be a way to hook it up?

has anyone check their belts with those from a wreckers without change made!! see if those plugs do actually plug into the clips?

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.

Ndr, how much are the new belts worth? Probably several hundred each ;)

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.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
