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.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
