Hi All

Question for any R34 owners out there. A while ago I fitted the Aero/Altia/Whatever you call it front bumper to my R34. This one came with the Foglights, as pictured.

Before this my car didn't have them fitted. So the foglights aren't wired up to anything.

I've also procured the switch for them that goes in near the headlight level adjuster (near right knee) (2nd pic, on left).

I like to keep things as clean and as factory as possible. I'd prefer to avoid having to hack in a custom loom to make them work, especially if the stock loom already has everything needed already there. There is a "fog lamp" fuse in the engine bay fuse box, which is live (20A). It looks as though the car's standard wiring loom has most if not all of the wiring, so I'm hoping this could be a simple plug-and-play affair. However I can't locate any of the wiring under the dash to hook into.

Does anyone have a R34 with these lights factory fitted and functional who could shed some light on where everything connects? Namely the switch, the lights themselves, whether or not there's any relays, and how the car behaves (eg, do the lights only come on with headlights, does the fog switch turn parkers/headlights on as well, etc).

Furthermore would there be anyone in Sydney with these lights who would let me have a poke around their car to work out how these are wired in? As you all probably know, there aren't any complete wiring diagrams floating around on the internet for these cars, so I'm forever having to poke around with a multimeter..

I have scoured the internet as best I can but the info I'm after just isn't out there.

Anyone able to help?

Thanks!

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
