hi guys,

im personally not into fog lights being used as indicators , seems abit early 90s to me that is....

so ive re-wired my front side lights (first stage low beam i think their refered to as)

now i just need to figure out what the wattage difference is as they seem to blink fast now , im guessing due to the light not being the right wattage?? i could be wrong.

lol these fools waste there time saying search this when they could just link or answer the question in the same time spent..

anyways a mates having the same problem blinkers flashing fast and wouldnt mind it fixed...

Or maybe search "indicator" and you will find your answer, i would not have a clue how to insert a link so if someone says search something and gives you a reference use it. Don't be a nob.

search pulled up nothing mate and who has time to go threw 50 topics with the word indicator in them..obviously if the person says search he or she knows were the answer lies so why not just post it up...

instead of being "a nob"

inserting a link is as easy as cutting it from the url bar in your browser and pasting it in your reply..

im sure the fast blinking is caused by the relay seing incorrect wattage consumption, the question is, what is the correct wattage consumption for each bulb... i think it may be easier to call repco and pretend ur buying bulbs for your skyline (rather then trying to find the answer on here as seen above)

or you could just use 21w bulbs like i said works :)

Is it possible you could make a thread for DIY side indicators on the R33 i would love to do the same thing.. Thanks

you can wire in resisters or another set of globes in line, hidden in the car to fix the correct watt level.

I can't remember which way I went as I did this mod in 2002 or 2003. fixed my fast blinking problem for my parker light indercator swap!

i tried resistors and had no luck...

as for tutorial....

- get indicator wires - cut

- get parker wires - cut

- thread indicator wires through to parker wire place

- splice indicator wires onto parker globes and insulate

- put in 21w globes with orange sleeves/dye

- done

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
