So i just put in some Red Dash lights and they look great!!! They look very nice and a great vivid Red. Gonna get a Red boost gauge to match now, lol.

One thing that sucks is my RPM needle... The Speed needle looks great! and looks like a defi gauge, it lights up VERY bright and looks awesome! but the RPM needle is super dark and doesnt light up at all...

Is there another light i need to change to make it brighter? Or is this normal in R33 Gts-t?

Thanks :D

thats strange. your factory boost gauge isnt lit up either, and i know it's the same bulb that lights that entire dial. could it be the uneven spread of light that leds are prone to?

maybe try swapping the lights around as suggested above. or try a regular bulb in that side. if it lights up ok, you know the problem is the led.

i just put philips crystal vision parker bulbs in my dash, and it lights up pretty even across the dials, and very bright too!

    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
