Ok, I've decided to organize a GB for the R34 bootlid brake light LEDs as pictured below. They are easy to install and this initial group buy will end on FRIDAY 24th of JULY at about 6 PM. The GB won't go ahead unless there are 5 confirmed payments by then.

The price will be $67 (with min. 5 confirmed buyers) or $60 if we can get 10 buyers before friday. This price includes delivery to you in a padded envelope.

The items are ordered via importmonster.com.au through the Yahoo Japan auctions and this is the seller there: http://page7.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g81202991

Please post here if interested and if you can make a payment by friday. Also, item is displayed below but I cannot guarantee the accuracy of the colours as they're always hard to capture on camera but I suspect they look fine IRL and very similar to what you can see in the photo. No warranty provided either - please buy only if you can risk getting a non functional item and lose your $67 (just covering my ass in case some/all of the items arrive faulty ..althought I highly doubt that)

According to the seller, these are made to order and can take about a week to be manufactured. So I'd say if we place an order on friday, they should be here by mid-august at the latest. Any questions, please ask here don't PM unless it's to confirm payment or to get my bank details. Cheers

just to clarify ..this GB is for the '20 LED' version as in the photo. And as I said before, the colour in above photo MAY not be accurate - it's most likely overexposed and the real-life colour is darker (red)

jrm is in I think .. 3 more to go guys.

I'm sure 20 LEDs will do the trick... we're not trying to blind everyone, just replace the normal single bulb with equivalent or better LED light :)

Besides ..the 32/48s look a bit too 'busy' for my liking and they cost more. Just try to picture how small the lens is ..20 LEDs is surely enough :)

+1 on 20 leds being plenty, less leds spaced apart looks heaps nicer than a tonne crammed into a small area, not to mention the more leds in there, the more dull the light looks, going from those images on yahoo japan.

Id consider this gb, but just not this soon :D

(might be removing bootlid brake light and welding over it)

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
