Hey,

I'm from Melbourne and I was driving in Clayton and saw a black R34 with 5 or 6 blue LED lights inside the headlights just under the globes like the new Audi's. Does anyone know about this? Is it custom or does someone do it? I'll try and get a pic next time I see it.

I bought those led strips off ebay a few weeks ago as I was gonna do this ..still haven't gotten around to it, mainly because it's a major pain in the ass.. Basically you gotta take you whole front bar off to be able to reach a couple of bolts under the headlights. Remove the entire headlight housing ... bake the headlights in an oven carefully so the glue starts melting (you can use a heatgun too apparently) so that you can pry off the lense off each. Then insert the leds and reseal the lens back using an appropriate sealant..put everything back together and ta-da. Obviously you will need to connect the wires to a 12V source but that should be a trivial matter for any sparky..

Having said that ..I reckon the one in the photo above has too many leds too close together .. fewer LEDs with more space between each would look more awesome. Perhaps even curving them upwards near the parkers..

I like the idea and have been looking into it myself. on my S2 r34 the front bar is thinnner and I could take a bar light of LEDS to look stockish

agree that one has too many LED's but looks nice

Led lights are easy as hell to hook up you dont need a sparky just need to know the right resistor to use for the current draw at 12volts

depends on the LED's but its easy

positive there illegal ....in any colour but white - NOT ADR approved unless marked

you can order pre built ones from the UK with TUV approval for use so at least they wont be a total defect

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
