First thing, I know you probably read the title and said "time to go tell some noob he's gay!"

Please don't, Im 18 and im going through the phase where I like the idea of interior neons, not over the top, but i do like a little illumination.

I used to have neons on my old Laser, but they were the ones that use cig lighter adapters, I don't like that idea and I don't wanna ruin my completely factory standard Skyline by hard wiring.

Anybody know of any ideas for interior illumination with a battery supply? Like a light with its own battery that I can replace that will just stick somewhere inside the cabin, LED or neon, i don't mind, but I want it to be self sufficient, so there's no running cabling to ruin my skyline's clean look if I decide to take it out.

Any help appreciated.

Hey mate,

I have 2 blue L.E.D neons under either side of my dash, They look really good, nice touch to the car,

What i did, is a run a power wire from the positive terminal of the batter, and install a switch in your car, and connect it all up,

My battery has never drained,

But last week i changed it to this:

i got the power wire and connected it to my Speedo lights dimmer, now it comes on with my lights, but its still connected to the switch, so i can still turn it off or on whenever i want too,

I have blue dash lights, Number plate lights, neons, so it all looks matched :/

heres a picture, not mine, but very similar, Looks nice. When you buy them, cut of the cigarette charger part

Good luck :P

you got a accessories running from the back of ur ciggi lighter its a orange wire on the 33's not sure about ur 34, wire it to that so when you turn ur car on they come on make sure you dont cut the transformer off the neons as you will f**k them up... i got 2 black light neons running under my dash similar to the blue ones in the pic posted they illuminate white products and look unreal

:/ up for the neons chicks love them!

didnt realize you guys write the rules on what people can do to there car !!! best you write a thred on what we can and can do to our car so that at the next meet i dont upset you with an unacceptable mod !!! call me gay and you might loose a few teeth !!!.

i have neons !!! and there not for the rice factor i have a 9 year old brother and my wifes frind has 3 kids under 11 and they love it (the youngest sees a skyline and instantly yells out "loooook its bryan" , we all do things for different reasons and tastes dont hate on people because there different thats why theres so much violence and racism in this country because if we all dont love justin beber like you fags then we must be gay !!!!

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
