Since I hate paying money for rice, I refused to spend $1200 on a set of nismo tail lights. I decided to make my own and im over the moon with the results. It took a lot of prototyping to do a set from scratch and a bit of help from fellow forum members. Next I will do the centre brake light.

Yes dan thanks for your help.....

Yeh i made it all. Cost about $200 in materials. I copied the nismo tail lights, same number of LEDs and pattern.

Lol wow... you've definitely copied it all right...

Would you make a DIY of this? :P

To all those people who says it looks nice, it looks nice because it's like 99.9% like the Nismo ones and hats off to him for making one that looks just like it.

Spending $200 to create something that looks 99.9% like something that's worth over $1000, definitely worth a DIY tutorial :P

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.

      Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.

      Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
