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.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
