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.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
