hey everyone

just have a quick question..a few days ago while i was driving i realised my indicator lights when i flick them on they seem to stay on and don’t acutally indicate on and off. I’ve read a few posts on here and done a search most people seem to have a problem with the indicator light staying on when they turn the head light on.

In my case the headlights don’t affect it so it’s not a ground/shorting out problem. I listened and failed to hear that clicking noise come from under my dash.. So i pulled my relay out, before i go buy one would anyone be able to confirm with me that it is the relay that has died?

Also where would be the best place to buy/find one? i was thinking Nissan themselves?

Thanks, Ni

hey bud do u mean its not flashing or the indicator is not cancelling if its just solid(not flashing) high chance is the flasher relay should be able to get a generic one from a repco store

hey man soz as in when i flick it on, it stays on so i guess its not cancelling as it just stays on solid as if it was like parker lights when you flick the switch..

Awesome i will try repco first :yes:

Cheers

It could also mean that you have an indicator globe out. Check your side repeaters, and front and rear. Most flasher units detect the loss of current draw and either slow right down or stop flashing alltogether

I've found most will speed up the flashing due to the lack of current draw from the blown globe..

now its time to sort out your windscreen wipers haha

Haha!! yer that is next :)

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
