Cool, thanks :)

The clear indicators are standard on Avantes I think. So that would indicate you have got different lights on there. Then again, lots of people just change the orange ones to clear anyway.

I just hope I can keep my xenons and S2 taillights.

With the side ones, I'll definitely see if I can supply them with a set.

Overall, it doesn't seem like much was changed during compliance.

That's very good to hear that they come with the actual glass tinted btw.

So what are the actual trim levels and the differences? Avantes and ??? I've also noticed that you have no badges on yours (bar the Toyo badge), while i have only got "Tourer V" on mine, while other chasers actually have "Chaser" on them too. Weird....

Looks nice :)

Those blinkers are the same as the Avante ones. The other clear blinker type you can get seems to block out all the orangeness of the bulb somehow, but they aren't as clear looking as yours (more like the orange ones on mine, but in clear). So they could be a whole Avante light set, or it could just be the side blinkers. I'm really not too sure :rofl:

I wanted one so bad, but about $40k more than the cef for a manual, not quite in the price range (about 2years ago that was tho)

One was bought the other day at Kyushu Gold a Auto 100,000 klm 4/B in White JZX100 Tourer V for 690,000 car cost so around $20,000 plus Rego, not too bad I would say.

The price is coming down,

But that is always the case for over 100k klms cars, the prices are substantially cheaper than say an 80k car. That being said, when i purchased my car about 12months ago i paid close to 800,000 FOB for a series 1, 4/b, 1/98 with 90k kms on it, which i thought was pretty damn good at the time. Everytime you look you always seem to find a car which is slightly cheaper than the one you bought :cheers:

xenons and they do have to be modified to meet ADR's. regardless of year.

It is a $15 dollar mod or spend $4,000 for every time you want to test the lights for approval, 2 tests and $8,000 lot of money to make back when not a lot of JZX100's are coming in.

Not like R34's were spare lights are around and you can swap for compliance.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
