I can get a fading transformer to light up a neon made up to size to fit in there. im not sure on price but if anyone is interested ill call around and see what i can arrange.

rembering i sell REAL neon so its 50times brighter than LED's and AEPRO autobarn stuff. problem is its glass and will need some TLC to install it in there so it doesnt break. But it would be a good effect.

Well,I am not all too familiar with the sanding of the back part yet but ,I once tried it with a Dremel and it was taking the paint off with out putting a hole through it just gotta keep it a nice and easy and be sure not to push down on it because you`ll just cut right through it FUNKMONKEY THE KNIGHT RIDER LIVES HAHA

I tryed to find out about how bright neon is and no one can tell me.

the best way to describe it is that the thicker the tube the duller the light

hungry jacks is 15mm red neon i have some 9mm red neon here. and if u turn it on in darkness u can not look at the tube for too long as it hurts your eyes.

thats the best way i can tell u how bright it is. if u put a mirror or something to reflect the neon behind it it will double in brightness (rubbs my eyes from the testing i have done this morning)

HEY PPLZ!!!! i just complete the first few stages on my badge for a 33... but i'm stuck on there lighting

i have pics on where i'm up too...

but yeah the lights i went to jay car... 30cm is just too damm short!!! it either a 'S' or a 'E' i'm missing... ahehae so yeah i don't know where to get a light...

also the hole i have made to put the light in is quite small.. just enough to fit a 5mm diameter cathode tube or sumthing of that name.. and the light it produces doesn't cover the "SKYLINE" work properly its like its too thin and yeah need some help...

One resistor per LED, any good electronics store will give you what you need, like Jaycar and then hook up to the 12 Volt park light circuit (numberplate wiring is good) and all you need to do is get some plastic or thin MDF or aluminium for a backing and drill 6mm holes to mount your LED's :wizard: Hey presto

auto trust: sounds good enough.. but ill see how good i go... but yeah its goin back on to the car first 2moro.. when i get time ill get it off again.. or when i have built my led Light show...

funky: that red translucent plastic thing i got from a sign writer they didn't have any that sticks so yeah i just cut it and slipped it in.. gonna stick it down sometime soon.. but yeah its just so i get a red lighting..

You know what would look cool.

i work at a lazercutting place and operate a lasercutter. i could cut the word SKYLINE out of 3m or 2m clear perspex rectangle so its the same size as the one of the back of all 33 or 32 skylines. then you could 2pak paint the perspex or sumthing. i dunno just an idea ? i could cut the word out to say anything the number plate of a car GODZILA anything really. but its getting late and it probabaly doesnt make sence lol.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
