Recommended Posts

Guest RedLineGTR

Got a r33gtst...

does anyone know which wires that come from the steering wheel coloum are the ones for the headlights??

i want to attach a guages power to it so when my lights are on so is it. Which colour are the wires etc...

Or what would be a better place to connect it. Since the power cable from it is shortish..i would have to extend it abit to reach alot futher.

Cheers Rob

There should be a wire going to the potentiometer on the dimmer that will read +12V as soon as you flick the lights on. I think this is where i spliced my boost guage into.

Multimeter is your friend, even a cheap one for 10 bucks will do enough to let you know whats going on.

just hook it on the back of the cluster, find the light gobes that light it up and solder u r wire on the printed circuit it will have power on when u have u r lights on and it will dim with the lights as well .

With the compliance dimmer control..does it only ajust the dash with the speed and rpm etc..or does it ajust the other light buttons like hazard lights ac control lights etc.. can anyone help out

I believe it should only dim the backlights. Any warning or indication lights should be unaffected ie indicators, handbrake, etc

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
