Hey guys,

Got an r34, have spent the last few hours searching with no results so I am creating a new topic.

Firstly, I love the look of all 4 taillights on my r34 lighting up. Is there any way i can rewire the lights so when the brakes are applied all 4 lights, light up?? I have seen this done before and would love a guide, or any help in how I can go about doing this.

Secondly, I Installed a new headunit two weeks ago, and then last week pulled the console out again, to re paint over the factory centre console paint. Both of these times i scratched the outter centre console pretty badly. (around the centre console) im sure you all know where I mean as looking through pictures of other 34's They all seem to be scratched. How do i go about fixing this?? Is there anyway I can retrim/paint/cover this?? what is everyones opinion on how to go about fixing this?

Thanks for reading,

Any help/opinions at all will be greatly appreciated.

Nathan.

as far as i can tell you cant fix the scratches, my only suggestion is to have it re-trimmed if it bothers you that badly, that or buy new trim pieces that are un-scratched, unfortunatly not a lot of options

What could it be retrimmed with? I'm not sure what the material actually is?

What do you think these pieces are worth in decent condition?

wouldnt have a clue, considered buying some and having a go at re-trimming them myself with a nice material in a colour to match the rest of the interior.

Try Nisswreck

Rush how could you retrim it considering its like a plastic??

Nuffsaid have you got any info on how to do it at all?

a materail/fabric glue spread evently over the surface should hold the material in place nicely, let it dry for a while and put it back in the car

I believe the plastic surround the whole area ,you can order it from Nissan , not sure on the price, i know Vic member Ashneel is looking into this exact thing as well, i have asked him to get me a price as well.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
