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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
