Hi all,

It's been a while since I've posted here again...busy with work and other stuff, I guess...well, my front bar is so cracked that it's not worth fixing, so it is time to get a new front bar...I've done so snooping around and I've decided to go with the Top-Secret style front bar - what do you guys think?

However, unlike the GTR front bar, the front gaps where the front indicators go is so large, I am thinking of leaving it bare to expose my intercoolers' piping, but this raises the question where the heck do I put the front indicators then? Any suggestions fellas? I was thinking of drilling two holes at the front close to the intercooler and put them there (a bit like the 400R style front bars)...what do you guys think?

Then again, some people put tiny rectangular-looking front indicators just on the corners of those huge gaps...where can I get these those? Hence, I need as much advice as I can get...thanks...

Dont do it mate, If you ever get defected you will need to put the parkers back and then fit indicators. Do it properly the first time. Go to autobarn, you can buy small led indicators for like $30. Solder the wires and your done.

love this front bar :P im guessin for parker/indicator just hook up the wires from the indicator to the parker bulb housing, change to orange LED and bingo! could be wrong. might need some other parts but thats how it works in my head :s lol. personally, i wouldnt do the whole blinker where the parker is. as Kris said, defect will be a problem. id find some nice looking LED lights from an electronics shop/autobarn/supercheap etc and chuck those on. u could even make ur own with parts from Jaycar.

Hi mate,

So Autobarn sells indicators? Never knew that.

Cheers.

this guy has indicators, easy peasy to install and they look nice and neat.

Yeah, I guess it's pretty easy to hook up, but the question is where can I get these indicators from?

places like Auto one and Repco sell all sorts of universal indicators like that

just go in and pic the shape and size you need

Oh ok, I never knew Reco and Autobarn sell stuff like universal indicators. Cool, thanks mate...I'll go in and pick out something...cheers.

incorrect globe wattage or globe out...

as far as legalities are concerened... some people drill a hole in their highbeams and put the parkers in there...

personally i cant see a cop ever pulling me over because he noticed i dont have parkers..... srsly

sometimes if your indicators flash too quickly, the cops can think you have an indicator out, and pull you over to warn you. Happens quite frequently when you change to LED indicators without the right wattage or resistance.

Ok fellas, well I went to Repco and bought some slim front indicators for $18 each, they look awesome...so flush at the front where the big round things were...makes the GTR front bar look so much better.

i got some slimline ones and put them in the nostrils... and then tinted them.. you could hardly tell, and they were completly legal.

Wow, interesting concept...got pics??? :)

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • 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.
