Thanks for the fast responses. I was hoping it was something I could use for a project but alas it's not suitable

Hmm, maybe open the garage door.

Isn't that on the auto-dimming mirror? Interested if your right though

I haven't seen this piece on an aussie delivered car. I was wondering what it was and what buttons etc are attached to it.

Thanks!

+1 on Courtesy Parts it's very easy to search for all parts and it gives you part numbers which I assume would be the same in the UK

Courtesy Parts uses their own SKU/Part number coding for most of the stuff on their site. It's not the actual OEM part number.

Looks fantastic! Very clean.

Sunsets don't have this problem though

NISMO 19"

out of interest do you know how much the GT4 alloys weigh ?

GT4 is unknown to me. What does it look like?

The UK Headlights have an 8 pin connector block

The JDM/US lights have an 6 pin connector block therefore they are not a direct plug and play swap

 

The difference is that that the UK lights use a self leveling system (red and blue wires) where as the JDM/US uses a manual system

Exactly. I need the plug circled in red below so I don't have to destory my current headlights? Wrecker wants me to buy the whole murano light I found locally for the single plug

Is this what I'm looking for? http://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-Matsushita-N ... 35b5827e95

If so - anyone know where to source a genuine part rather than the Chinese rip-off?

99% of people ive heard using aftermarket stuff have had major issues. Best to stick to oem with molyslip additive.

Really? I'm using Redline MT-85 and no issues here. Maye placebo as it was after a service but a smoother shift.

I'm curious as to why your sunset varies in shades - must be the extra strong sunlight downunder

Photos have all been taken with various different light sources. One of great things I like about the colour is the way it pops differently in each.

I think the next time at the Grasshopper when the sun is shining we should take it as a challenge

Nah it's OK - we know we do things better down south anyway

Very rare to see more than one Sunset in a photos at a meet.

Only one other Sunset in the Club and he lives in another state.

Freshly washed and waxed...

just in time so the ZClub of Victoria can say hi to you you all!

^^ That puts you into diagnostic mode which will clear the light once you turn the ignition to ON. What it doesn't tell you is why the light came on in the first place.

Here's is a great post on my350z.com to take it one step further which will actually tell you the why. Includes caps from the owners manual.

Simple question, as the title suggests...

No the consoles are different.

3 pages in and this hasn't come up?!?

^ This. I sent some Aussies his way for the same part.

The only other option is to click "mark forums read" on the index at the end of each session.

Found it Thanks. Just need to get that link onto the "view" line that appears on all pages and it'll be perfect.

No all new posts on the forum since I last logged in/visted the site.

I was hoping someone could help me please I'm trying to figure out how to have a new posts page that only shows me new posts since my last login. I've tried "new posts", "unread posts" and "and view active topics" with out success

I've also tried searching for the button that marks all read as most of the view new posts returns with a 40 page list

Help?

what where how any why information on that TPM Switch please!!!!!!!

I've found the Chinese manufacturer and have asked for more info Hopefully can get my hands on a sample/trial unit.

Installation Manual

http://www.inawise.com/nissan/nissan-li ... manual.pdf

I currently have an Orange TPMS system in the car and have been struggling to work out where to steathy install the display. I ended up deciding on the sunglass holder and running a wire through the a-pillar and headliner. I think this little unit should (in theory) work with my sensors already so should give me an even steathier install and OEM looking TPMS.

Currently the stock fog light form a 370z is leading the way... updated seat heater switches look nice too

In other news - I found a Nissan button with receiver to use as my TPMS monitor Includes harness for OE install. Reading the manual there is a PSI version and audio alerts too.

In further new I stumbled across pics of the Footwell lamps (B6400-CD000) and Interior Illumination Kit (under dash lights). Want want want. Anyone know where to get them!!??

Just check and no VDC light on the dash I could tap into. Only have a TCS off and SLIP

Being that what's marketed in Auz is very similar to Kiwiland, what about a Maxima, Murano or Pulsar button etc?? From a wreckers, and then get it stickered with whatever you need. Some like that must be fairly generic.

Just want something with a built in light that looks OEM. I guess I need to start trawling through Google images..

+1 to Andlid on caliper bolts.

I did the conversion too and you will also need to either (a) cut your rear dust trim piece to make the rear rotors fit or ( buy brembo sized dust trim.

I did ( and be warned its not an easy job to do yourself or its an expensive job if you get someone else to do it as there's a fair bit of work involved.

Front dust trims are the same part# and do not have to be cut/replaced/trimmed.

Certainly the time to do stainless brake lines!!

A little ostentatious for me Ian....

Me too unfortunately Not quite the OEM look I was going for.

If I had a switch like that in my Zed I would expect it to fire a machine gun at the twonk in front of me at the toll looking for a £1 coin even though he has been on the M25 heading towards the toll for the last half an hour

So want! So very want!!

Anything is possible i guess a button from a wrecked car wouldn't be expensive....

Can grab a new one for pretty cheap which is OK.

Would you not power the recorder from the ignition so when the ignition is turned off it cuts the power?

No. The drive recorder still needs power to record via its "motion sensor" (ie: someone driving/walking past your car) and also "g-force" (ie: someone bumping your car). If one of these sensors goes off it records the previous 30secs and goes for an optional time frame after. Hence the power pack sold as an accessory is necessary to avoid draining your car battery. One version of the power pack has the over-riding on/off button so you can switch it completely off (ie: when the car is safely parked in your garage). The power pack will be hidden away hence why I'm looking for a button to replace it in a usable spot.

Is that a switch in your picture or just a cover? It looks a perfect fit to me but doesn't look like a switch, just the cover moved...

It's the original VDC button someone moved from the dash to there so they stopped opening the fuel filler cap. I'd be happy using it but I'd have no indication if it was on or off

If you find a perfect fitting switch please let me know

Absolutely

EDIT: Thinking aloud - as my car doesn't have VDC (non-track) I wonder if the light on the Dash is there though? I could then wire the the switch to the dash so when I deactivate the recorder the light shows up? Will need to look into it and see. *Runs off to read service manuals*

Thanks. Found the thread(s). I'm confident of getting the wiring all working thought. What I'm after is an OEM looking button to use
