I've got one of these buttons too. As far as I'm aware, it doesn't do anything. I couldn't figure it out either. When I pulled apart my dash i noted that the button was located near a little vent that was attached to a hose of some kind. Almost like an air freshener pump. I presumed it was for that reason.

I believe that hose is a temperature sensor of sorts

that was a compliance issue under the old rules... the cars needed a dimmer switch and that was the easiest way to put one in :(

and i always thought it was factory cause it sure looks like it. my antenna switch is just above my left knee..that looks factory too. thumbs up to the compliance guys then.

yeah the tube is for your climate control to measure cabin temp, im pretty sure of it.

Some jealous so-and-sos buried a really smic R33 with its owner out at Eastern Creek... right in the middle of the Lighthorse Interchange.

You cannot see the car at all. The only way he was able to draw attention, was to press this switch!

All that remains, is this aerial, sticking up outta the ground; 50m high & lit up at night!

    • Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.
    • I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything.

    • Anyone found gates blue racing to be extremely tight/ almost impossible to install without moving the exhaust gear
