hey guys,

I should have my set sanded this w/e. haven't had much time this last week with changing jobs n all, and i've been crook which doesn't help matters any.

Let me know which type you guys would prefer...if you want ones that just stick on, i can put them together pretty quickly, and it will only use half as much fibreglass, so i can sell them cheaper ;) If anyone wants the stick on type, i should be able to put a set together this weekend (unless I keel over from being sick ;) ).

Once i have my bolt on set trimmed to fit, i'll see how they go with the bonnet...but i can't see there being any issues. They will bolt on at the back, and I'll probably be sticking them at the front so thieving little s**ts can't get their fingers up underneath to rip them off.

**PM** me with what you guys are expecting to pay, and i'll try and work my price around that :) I'll also work out how much i'll need to charge to cover my costs ;)

I trial fitted the eyelids to the car last night after trimming them, I need to shave a little off the face of the pass side one to even things up.

They fit and the bonnet closes normally. The little black rubber things on the bonnet were originally hitting the eyelids but I trimmed it (edit: by "it" i mean the eyelids, not the black things) back and now fits with no issues :P

Also tried to "steal" them with the bonnet closed and they weren't going anywhere :D

All that's left to do is:

*sand the pass side eyelid

*make brackets to fit

*paint

Once i have this set completely finished I'll put a post in the F/S section :D

To give me an idea of demand, please PM me or post here and let me know what you guys want:

*stick-on (will just cover the top & face of the headlight), or

*bolt in (covers face and entire top of headlight)

:P

Man, i'm interested too if you're going to start making more lol. Been after eyelids since i bought my 32, makes it look so much "Tuffer"!

A bit off the topic, but how do you's get that little pic of your cars in ur info thing? I've taken pics of my car with my fone, but cant work out how to put it up there!?

Let me know how you go with the eyelids i'm VERY keen.

Michael is thinking of gettin' a GTR so it isn't goint be cheap ;)

:rofl:

will trade for GTR Parts ;) hahaha if everyone donates something (a caliper, a radiator, an engine, etc ) I should be able to build a GTR by 2010 :wizard:

but seriously, I'm going to make 2 or 3 types.

1- Stick-on ones for maybe 50-60ish (to be confirmed) - these will just cover the face, an dif someone was so inclined may be able to be ripped off :(

2 - Stick on that are a bit bigger and will be hard to steal because of the way it is moulded around the headlight,

3 - And the 3rd type which will bolt at the back, and can be stuck at the front (so they don't rattle around and are a bit more secure :) This is the type i have made and basically ready to be painted.

As per one of my previous posts, i tried to "steal" the 3rd type from my car with the bonnet closed and it was impossible. Also I couldn't get enough leverage to break or snap them off because they are moulded so closely to the headlight :D

If no-one wants the cheapies then please let me know and i'll focus my efforts on what you all want :) Even better if you could email me which type you'd prefer @ Midnite_Garage at hotmail dot com it will be easier for me to keep track of what people want. I'll let you know set prices for type 2 and 3 sometime next week when i have pics.

:cheers:

Michael

      R34 Handbrake light saying ON and intermittently flashing

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).

      Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
