Why? And what sort of GTR does that? R32? No. R33? No. R34? No. All have dedicated amber indicators.

Besides, in a car as modern as a G37, the indicators and brakes lights and so on are all driven by the BCM. You can reprogram the BCM to flash whatever lights you want, without buying some tacky clear plastic lens Altezza uleh lights.

Doesn't the ADM R32 GT-R have this config?

No. ADM R32s had a different setup with the outer of the outer as brake only, with amber indicator in the centre of the outer (instead of it just being a reflector). This because ADRs require that no permanently lit rear light may reside outboard of the rear indicator (which is what the JDM tailights have).

All imported R32s are supposed to have the wire linking the tail light input to the outermost light cut, to approximate the ADM config and comply with ADRs.

Ah, OK thanks. I stand corrected.

On your 2nd point, I imagine this isn't performed consistently or "cut" may be translated to "disconnected."

I don't think I have noticed on R32s this but probably not looking either and would have assumed the light was out. The wiring on mine is intact and looks original.

Hahah yea the guy I brought it off imported it lol but still parts are not easy to find for the car trying to find tail lights that turn your led lights that also function as your turn signal 

I have the g37 tail as turn plug and play for sale If youre really that interested. 

Took it off My v36 prior to sale. 

Just makes the entire light flash as an indicator. I did like it, each to their own.

Mine was cut. Needed a patch splice soldered in to put it back the way it should be. It was supposed to be done in the compliance workshop and inspected by the rego people. I suspect that SA/Regency were more thorough about such things. Funnily enough, my car has been back through Regency since and they didn't even blink. I think they cared at compliance time because it was written down as a thing they had to check. But they probably actually only cared from a paperwork/auditability point of view and not from a technical perspective, because it's a pretty silly rule.

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
