Hey everyone is there anyone/anywhere that sells the airbag harness to get rid of the airbag light once aftermarket seats are installed? If not I'll just try a 2ohm resistor, would prefer a neat plug if possible though. I've seen posts about NISMO making a harness, can't find anywhere actually selling them though.

TIA

Yes you will get an error, and yes the correct resistor will clear the error.

I assume it's not in an 1993 R32 Skyline GTST, its probably a 5ohm resistor if it's M35 or 2.7 for C34 but I'm not certain

I have been looking for the cancellation plugs myself, they are sold with Bride seats. I need a pair for a V35 but getting parts from Japan is hard with the language barrier. Nothing suitable on Yahoo afaik.

The M35 and V35 should be the same resistor as the G35 or 350z, so look up what they use.

Yea it's an M35, R32 was my old car

I had a quick look at the 350Z pages the other day and I think they said 2.2ohm or 2.7ohm, will have more of a look.

Have you tried Jesse Streeter? He's been good at tracking down random parts for me.

Done a bit of reading up on this, and found this thread. Wondering if the DIY in the bellow link would work with our M35's

A shame the pics no longer work. I'm going to have a look at my OEM seats and have also asked amayama if they can get NISMO airbag harnesses plus I'm going to look into the 2.2ohm resistor, see which one works out best/easiest.

I have a spare nissan yellow plug if needed. I installed one under my passenger seat as it was hard wired and sourced 2 for my 350z seats. Its a simple install but still need to solder and heat shrink. You will also need to do the airbag light reset procedure to clear light.

I may end up taking you up on that offer, cheers. Soldering and heat shrinking I can do. Thanks

Success! The 2.2ohm resistor for each seat worked. No more airbag light. I just did it this afternoon, will keep an eye on it but don't see why it should come back.

Nicely done!

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
