R34 Led Bootlid Brake Light?


Recommended Posts

Yeah the pictures don't do it justice, I wish I could be driving behind my car all the time, at night it's mesmorizing :)

I wish I can see em in real life, as I too realised photos wouldn't show how good they look in person :)

HOLY CRAP first you hook me up with some awesome dash lights, now your trying to do a LED Tail Light Kit, very impressed and very interested in a set for a 4door sedan :D, keep up the great work and hopefully it all falls into place.

Thanks Terry.. I only just finished designing a set. I'll post up some pics and video wheb I get home.

Plates are all CNC'd so they are an exact match etc

I should stop doing this while driving :P

The units ive made run and adjustable resistor so you can set the brightness to your liking.

This photo was set too low and in direct sunlight but is much better now

wont be able to do any others for about 3 weeks (holidays, racing etc)

They need to be installed into your factory housings so if you are happy to be without taillights for a week (1-2 days fitting and return postage) im happy to do them for $500 including return postage.. If you need your taillights because its a daily im looking at buying a spare set and doing it on an exchange basis for the same price (but a $100 retainer that will be refunded when your lights reach me to ward off people trying to keep both)

If you are interested say so here or PM me and ill start up a group buy.

Here are some more build pics

underbody coat to protect wiring and joins from the elements and corrosion etc, plus it looks nicer.

I have had another person ask for indicators, it wouldnt be too hard at all. they would obviously cost a little more and take longer as I wouldnt release it until i was sure that it worked flawlessly..

as a side note, took the car down to canberra and they were perfect all the time, even survived a -4degree night covered in ice

does the black backing make the lights look 'tinted' when they're not on? have you pulled apart a Nismo set? do they mount on black backing? i've got the Qest ones, they look great and are made very nicely but back is too light, i want the OEM look like Nismo.

I take it these are brighter than Nismo?

Depending on how close the discs are mounted, you don't really notice anything, the better option is to spray them RED, or Silver and they are seemless, our old kits used a fairly heavy silk-screened and soldered board, but the larger one had to be mounted further back to avoid uneveness in the LED ring (you'll notice some kits go blurry for about 25% of the ring where they're not parallell to the red lens)

Hey Daniel I just went outside and took a photo so you can see for yourself, I dont think they do and look as per factory minus being able to see the LED's which is exactly the same as genuine nismos as I was lucky enough to have a friend with a set that let me get nice and close to look at it all but didnt pull it apart as we were far from home.

I will try and mount the boards further back for some people if they prefer to hide the LED's a bit as my set are basically a test set till I buy another set of lights to 'experiment' on

here you go
