hi all.

well after botching my headlights. they dont seem to be sealing very well and condensating.

Im looking at getting some new headlights :)

what aftermarket ones are out there in availability?

Ive seen a few on IM with halo's at $1000 for the pair.

My only real need is they NEED to have a black background.. halos would be nice lol.

what do you all think.

just trying to weigh up the difference in cost of having these repaired - or get new ones.

Most of the IM ones are an exchange deal.

Maybe time for a strip, scrupulous clean & reseal with Sikaflex?

The others seemed to manage it, maybe they have some tips?

Could be something simple...

just pull them out again... heat and split em.. and use some of the glassylite stuff to fix the clear-ness.. and sikaflex/gasket silicone them back together.. you didnt ruin your inside did you??, its just not sealing together properly right??

yes its a bitch of a job but will save you $$$ instead of new/secondhand lights.

anyway thats what i would do.. so far mine arent leaking.. but thats why i did mine to begin with, one was leaking and there was a spider living in there!!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
