gotta say,

its a pretty funny idea i dont think i would wanna try it, BUT i do like the LED lights for the r33 copy tail lights in EVO-LEE's link that he put up, they are a lil different and pretty cool...

haro

Guys you if you want LED tail lights you can make them yourself it isn't hard or you can now buy them off the shelf here. The names of the shop escapes me at the moment. But the question is changing your tail light defectable, I pretty sure all those Lancers and Civics with Euro tail lights can be defected.

That's why I said this is probably the origin of rice - SE Asia is generally a poor country and an Evo or GT-R cost almost 3-4 times more then the Japan price IIRC.

their not defectable if DOT approved but the ones at autobarn arent DOT approved, ones from mitsubishi are. but cops wouldnt notice the difference. gotta take the tail light out to see the stamp saying DOT approved. but my lancer was lol, not DOT approved geez only paid $150 for the tails :D while my mate paid $450 from mitsubishi lol, no difference at all.

i admire the work done to those cars :) just not their choice of kit lol the time taken to make them up would of been astounding

The silver one is OK, if you weren't paying much attention you'd prolly just think its like any other Skyline (apart from the fact 4 door GTRs are as rare as hens teeth and the 4 door GTS-t's have diff tail lights) but that purple...'thing' is awful...KILL IT NOW!!!

Do they know what an Eterna is...it's the wedge shapped Magnas. They must have done a shitload of custom work to the car.

I was thinking a MMC UK delivered Carisma looked the closest but the boot is too high compared to the rear door line as well.

It may in fact be a 3 series BMW, they have high boots...so good spotting.

M powered GT-R :):D:D

thats farkd up. esp the airbrushed one. those car in top pics look like they have indonesian number plates.

that eclipse doesn't look that bad, not a fan of the car but the light conversion looks alright.

That ain't no 3 Series BMW... look at the centre crease line on the BMW, the crease goes right through the door handles. That "thing" with the R33 lights, bumper etc has a similar crease line, yet the door handles are positioned below the line.

Yeah, looks like malaysia or around that area. Can't be singapore since you're not supposed to modify anything on your car or else the government takes it, but OMG, a friend there paid over $90k for a little hatchback... I wouldn't pay anything over $15k here for the same car...

Skylines are expensive and fairly rare over there... My fiancee lived there and all the guys she worked with just couldn't accept the fact that I was rich enough to own a skyline (having no idea how cheap they are here)... So she showed them a pic :) rofl!

I've seen a lot of new cefiro's over there though. Wish I had my camera at the time.

    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
