hmmm...i dont know....

what i would do is look at random cars....and see what cars have indicators that might fit if they have spots in front bars.....

but try contacting nissan...they can usually get that crap from japan....ummmm and that other place that gets all the stock parts....

does anyone have the size of the gtr indicators because i think they are about 25mm (i think thats what your meant) radius...

is it www.justjap.com.au

??

edit: i couldnt find anything on justjap...what about fibrevision or somewhere like that im sure they could get some....

i can post a pic on the 29th of january. thats when the car gets back from the shop. I took this option cuz theres no way in hell i'm payin for genuine GTR ones, ($330) when im just as happy with cheaper ones ($4.95 each). Because the lamps are a bit bigger then the hole, then they stick out a lil bit, but i like it that way. I'll b sure to post pics.

Thanks Paul

yeah, ive got the GTR/400R ones in my 400R front bar.. at $160 a pop they arent cheap, lucky they came with my car..

trailer lights ive seen are very similar, basically just a yellow dome with a black shroud, and cost alot less :D

there are 2 types of trailer lamps.. the big square edged round ones that stick out heaps and look shizzle

or go to WA salvage and get the smaller more rounded ones... they fit really well and look quite OEM if done right

now alternatively... i think its the pajero or the daihatsu terios or something that uses a clear round indicator that you will find useful..

post a pic first though please..

So far, I went to few places around town looking for my indicators, only one place have been helpful and that is Xtreme Machines.....Credit to them . They know customer service.

All of the other shops, I won't name them , have been more than un-pro.........:rofl:

REsult = me not having my front bar put on, and now it looks I will be mounting my old bar back on to go to the cruise this Sunday. I am mad. Sick of people telling you they will call and they don't. sorry guys about this but it had to comeout..... :D

As far for the Extreme Machines, guys go in there and see what nice place it is and how organised it is. Very well done:)

White lenses, orange globes :D Would absolutely look the shizzle on your car cos it's white Al :D

I can't say I've seen them in trailer lights, but you might want to try Bunnings, as we stocked trailer lights there a few years (orange lenses but)

And you're right about some shops *cough* "oh, he only wants trailer lights, and he's not gonna spend megabucks at our shop, bugger it" is often the way.....

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
