Hey guys,

Was wondering if anyone knew the best place to get undercar LEDs? Apparently I need custom ones made up for the back and the front (sides are fine) because of the way the exhaust runs and because the K-Bar is too low.

I heard Jaycar has these LED strips you can cut to length that are made for undercars. Haven't been to check them out yet though.

I'm after preferrably the 1000 colour LEDs, if not then just white as I have a Black and White them going with my car.

Let us know. Cheers :turned:

Jaycars set is about $60 and comes with 4 strips (2 around 1.2m long, 2 around 800cm long) of rubber encased RGB LED's. Completely weatherproof, waterproof, etc. The RGB globes come with 8 different pre programmed modes, and 7 different colours. (Red, green, blue, white [red/green/blue], cyan [green/blue], purple [red/blue], yellow [red/green])

1st mode: Cycles quickly though the solid red/green/blue

2nd mode: Cycles quickly though cyan/yellow/purple

3rd mode: Fades in an out slowly (nice smooth transitions) between all the colours.

4th mode: Flashing white

5/6/7/8th mode (respectively): Solid white/red/green/blue

Comes with a small control box which is easily hidden. On the fronts I just cable tied to the plastic underneath the engine bay, rear I double sided taped to the fuel tank, then used silicone to fill the gap up. There is a grommet in the boot somewhere you can push the wires through and run into the car. I just tapped into a constant positive power source inside the fuze box (so I didn't have to run an inline fuze) and draws about 300mA on idle, nothing to be worried about if you drive your car daily, but if it is a weekend car I would go into an accessories power source.

Obviously the other LED strips are the solid whites, I haven't seen any 1000 colour leds around ever.

PS. Haters gonna hate.

I just bought two sets off ebay, 5m reel, waterproof, cutable every 3cms i think it is, can rejoin by simply soldering them with wires and putting some silicone or some sorta weather shielding around it, has a remote with a shitload of colours and flash settings etc

cost me around $30 i think it was

ended up putting one set around a big canvas for my sisters room via a AC/DC converter

I don't see why there is so much hate. I rarely turn them on, you can't see them if I don't. It's mainly just for people who don't know about imports who are like "OH IT'S LIKE THE ONE IN FAST AND FURIOUS!"

I love each and eeveryone of you. And ladies. Excuse me. Where are my manners? Sometimes my chivalry goes astray, much like a commodore with big chromies. haha anyway I know about imports. I just like the look of them as stated. Don't care if you don't. Not your car. Also there's a magical invention called a switch where I can turn them off :D Technology... Amazing these days hey? :P @Al Despo - (who's real name is also Alex) I knew this was coming. haha. I've seen other threads/just know what others with JDM cars think of them. @Voncina - Had a look on Jaycar's website...I found a kit for $60 as stated. But no white on there. Red, blue, green only or some sh!t. And no cycles mentioned in the description either. You able to find them anywhere? Here's the Jaycar link. http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=SL3955

That is the kit that I was talking about above. I know it isn't mentioned in the description, that is why I took the time and effort to post all that crap about them.

And cheers man, as I said above, I rarely have them on, it's mainly for show for people who aren't used to the JDM scene. Doesn't bother me when people hate.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
