Hi all,i just wanted to ask if someone got the LEDs for the cluster of ebay and has anyone had any problems with them? When i installed LEDs it was bright as but after about a week it lost the brightenes and the the numbers werent all the same so i pulled them out and checked one by one and they all were fked :/ each bulb had few LEDs completly gone and some had few good bright and few not as bright.. And i checked my cars voltage it was 14.25 so i dont think that is what cause them to die..

A lot of the bulbs on ebay aren't rated to 14v...they're 12v max which is pointless, they need to be 16v min rated.

This guy claims bulbs are 14-16v and that alternator or regulator might be faulty but i also got my park lights converted to LEDs and they are still fine but i got them at autobarn..

just got around to puttin green in my dash , cigarette lighter and power window

just wonderin if anyones got any secrets to getting the needles in the cluster to be nice and bright red,

they are still a little red but a bit patchy :s

Unfortunately being complementary colours, RED never lights up super well with GREEN, you'll find ater a while you'll get used to it. The needles can be lit up, but with a lot of work involved

They 'barn ones with eventually die also from what I've seen, they don't even come close to our "special brew" version and yet they were quite adament that my prices to supply were too high, they weren't happy with only 300% markup when they could get a 1000% and rely on people losing receipts or being too complacent about complaining.

I got an LED kit for my instrument cluster. I put the LED illuminating the fuel gauge in the wrong way and I'm not bothered to fix it, but other than that I'm really impressed with how it looks.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
