Hi,

 

So I had this project of shift light on steering wheel for my r34 gtr started for month ago now and I finally finished it.

Features are :

- 9x RGB leds can be set by user

- threshold RPM can be set by user

- custom PCB to get RPM from cluster (so it doesn't matter if it's a stock ECU or standalone ) !

- doesn't affect cluster/ecu behavior

- custom hairness (except 12v, there is only one solder or quick contact to do on a wire )

- based on OEM r34 gtr

To be confirmed but it should work on r32, r33 and gtts

 

I think I'm the only one to have something like this in the world

 

I got a lot of good comments when I show it to friends and so I have been thinking of selling some.

Steering wheel customisation will be done by a french company

I will do this during my free time, meaning I don't need to eat. It's just extra.

I'm an electronic engineer so I know what I'm doing (most of the time 😛 )

 

Price is not defined yet and will depends on how many people are interested and options asked for the stiching, carbons, color etc

 

If you are interested, don't hesitated to contact me

 

Best regards

 

PS : if this kind of sell is not allowed, please delete no problem

This looks awesome! When you say the LEDs can be set by user, is it fully customisable?

When I think of shift lights, I'm picturing it lighting up from the outside to the middle. Like below

. . . . . . . . . (all LEDs off)

| . . . . . . . | (outside LEDs on)

| | . . . . . | |

| | | . . . | | |

| | | | . | | | |

etc. then blink at the below for shift

| | | | | | | | |

 

Is that possible?

Also what is involved in getting it done? Have to send in the steering wheel I presume?

thank you for your comment ;)

Unfortunatly only the colors but if I have a lot of interested on this, I could look into it.

 

Well I will provided a kind of instruction/manual for installations and obviously support

Installation is rather simple, Basically it's some cover to removed, steering wheel, airbag, clsuter.

Connect custom hairness and that's it.

 

You can send your own or I can buy an used one or start from an aftermarket one

Hi Bogboss, I am also an electronics engineer. I my business if OG Innovations. One of my products would be perfect for this, I have a shift light controller that would be perfect for this.

I it’s a shift controller where the amount of leds can be set up to 64 leds. The Color segment size is customisable, Color’s are customisable and so is the animation. 
I also have a can bus version so it can be installed on new cars aswell. 
Pm me if you’re interested I can readily supply these. Powertune bought a few hundred of them to bundle with their dashes. 
I also have an array of various led bars, you should look at the dot star 2020 leds, you could fit twice as many in a wheel, I can make them to the shapes, sizes and specs to meet your needs.

      Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.

      What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.

      Yes that sounds right. Cars currently in the shop for the engine work. Will need to remeasure .. but yes I think I must be targeting 45cm from fender.
