have only just noticed that my rear lights on the right hand side dont come on when asked to. bugger. changed the filaments - no joy. swapped wiring looms with left hand side and they work fine in the LHS position? right, time for multimeter.... 12volts to both left and right light assy's but whatever loom goes in the RHS wont illuminate the filaments? ok :confused: next twist... pushing brake pedal illuminates 'LIGHTS' on dash. oh dear, that cant be right :cry: pushing brake pedal also illuminates standard rear lights on RHS,brake lights on RHS, brake lights on LHS and brake light on spoiler :confused: :cry: :confused: :cry: :confused: :cry: so basically the standard rear lights on the RHS only come on when braking and then the brake lights come on with them obviously. (each bulb has two filaments inside, one for standard lights ON, another illuminates when braking). what i need to know is where and how someone has managed to wire up the RHS rear lights to the brake pedal, if that is whats wrong, and how i'm going to wire them back up to the lights switch?? help! :(

spot on mate. took it apart yesterday to find two (working) filaments behind. no way they would shine through the plastic uk plates though? take it in japan they use see thru ones :slap: cheers guys.

getting ready to kick myself.... what do the wires leading to my front number plate do?? no visible difference night or day/lights on or off? ....foot is aimed and waiting :slap:

very nice :bow:

if they're really cheap buy em then sell em?

* edit * will NOT be doing this in the summer :nono:

that link is hilarious. the scooby drivers are having a massive argument. about fuel FFS?!?! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

legrath, could ya keep me posted on your progress if poss? looking to do this myself sometime in the summer.

http://www.pocketgpsworld.com one stop for everything satnav. the speed camera database is huge. tried and tested many times ;)

now now, everyone to their own! turns out i might need a whole new tailgate (£100ish + spraying). not too bad as the replacement original from zcentre is £150. reason being the tailgate has started to rust and i'd rather replace the whole section.

will check it out.... wouldn't something maybe a little different but not crazy. what do ya reckon to this...

the original foam spoiler has had it and i would ideally like a better condition one of the same but apparently very hard to source. mine has the common problem where the trim at the bottom, with the fairlady writing on it, is coming loose and looking pants. any ideas on new spoilers or where to get a mint original? cheers lads :)

sorry if this is a daft question but where would you get them cut? can picture my local market cutter shoving it in his machine followed by sparks and a bang! LOL

i'll bring my new toy :dance: anyone able to bring J spec rear lights and centre section for a 91 LWB by any chance? (slightly late notice) cash waiting!

somewhere in that link the bloke says... "I HAD THESE IMPORTED FROM THE STATES FOR MY 300ZX. THESE WERE FITTED TO MY CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK, BUT DUE TO SELLING MY CAR, I'VE TAKEN THEM OFF." ..but there's loads of sets for sale?

sorry to borrow your thread matey but can you tell me what wheels they are on your zed? very smart looking!

thanks matey

is he still around? quoted me a price for a Toad Ai606 a few weeks back but now my car is here i cant get hold of him!?! sod's law. gave someone called dennis a call who will do me a great deal but i'd prefer to give business to forum members if poss? cheers, Tom.

i'm very close to taking delivery of my zed import. after looking around on this forum and others i decided to go through Leigh, one of the traders on here. Jap City Ltd is his company. he has been EXTREMELY helpful at every stage so far and a real bonus is he uses Ryan from ZTech to run diagnostics when the car arrives and also got me (fingers crossed!) a good deal with Ryan on the big 60k service, cambelt, water pump, labour etc. its a small company but IMO that was one of the positive deciding factors. highly recommend Leigh@Japcity ltd Tom.

thanks for the help

i know its never good to let a tank run to empty but like i said, nowt i can do! change fuel filter is another thing to add to the ever increasing mod list now!

thanks legrath, has got some info on the link but there's a follow on link which isn't working. guess i'll have to wait to actually play with it. at least its already installed now i'm just after wiring diagrams/instructions to help whoever installs my alarm & immob. can feel a PM on its way to Bob.....

if i had it now i'd fill her up matey believe me! any FET timer owners on here?? had a search but seems everyone has sold them on :confused:

your right mate it is a FET, i had a look on google for some pictures. anyone know about these?

why do ya say that b19rks?
