Hey guys,

Just wondering where I can get a replacement globe/LED that goes inside the headlight level adjuster switch in my R34, as it doesn't light up anymore. I'm guessing it will be the same globe as my TCS switch (which still lights up).

Cheers!

I know my TCS lights up.

Foglight and headlight level adjuster should light up too.

As well as "Auto" on the driver's side window switches.


I've got a spare headlight level adjuster at home, I can open it up and take a photo to see where we can get em from :D

Not from Nissan lol, or you'd have to buy the whole switch to get a globe with it lol, so I've sent out a few enquiries about this little globe, hopefully I'll hear back soon :)

Will keep you updated :)

I have finally sourced some of these globes, in LED, and have changed my blown globe over.

I've got 3 left if anyone is interested, $4.50 pick up or $5.50 posted.

I've also just figured out how to get the numbers (0-3) light up too.

You need to use a sharp knife to ply out the plastic number plate, then flip it around, you'll notice behind the numbers, it is blacked out. So just grab a knife or something sharp to scrape off the black paint :)

Thanks Charles on the suggestion to scrape off the paint, that's much more useful than not seeing the numbers, don't know why they had it blacked out in the first place.! PMed you. Also, this will come in handy because I just realised my TCS doesn't light up anymore.

Hey Charles,

Can you provide me with a part number or something of the replacement globe/led?

Interested in doing this to my R34 also, and perhaps the Auto switch for the electric windows.

Thanks!

Thanks man. I think I have some T3's in the cupboard.

Hey bit of a noob question, but how do you remove the adjuster? Ha...

Attacked it with a flat head yesterday, but kind of bitched out when it didnt budge

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?
