anybody got pics of led bulb replacement for any of the brake / signal lights? wondering how it would look !

never heard of a LED replacement of them... "you had my curiosity, but now you have my attention". I wanna know what they look like too lol.

One small globe, get to it by removing the boot lid trim.

Or get the LED replacement from Ebay :)

Do you think you could link me to the LED replacement on Ebay please? Sorry to be hassle lol, but i've had a search and couldn't find anything on Ebay. Cheers!

hey guys,

I've noticed the brake light on the boot of my '98 r34 gtt is not working anymore and just wondering how to replace the globes (if they are actually burned out)?

Cheers!

Hey mate you have to unclip the surround in your boot, then you have to undo 3 10mm nuts and pull the light out to change globes. Well that's how you do it in my 2000 GTT. Very doubtful that it would be different. Hope that helps!

It's a T10 halogen bulb that has a socket and just twists and pops out like your parker or tail lights. You have to remove the boot lid trim by poping out all the plastic scrivets/clips. You could also get T10 LED bulbs easily on eBay for next to nothing.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
