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.

    • 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).
