as a side note, the same 194 LEDs work in R33 clusters as well, as for installation, I'm assuming it's very similar to the R32.

the bulbs i got look like they have little patches on them maybe thats why they were more?

Thanks Blackzenki82 but those are all 194, it says you need 5 of those and 2 x 74. do you not need to change the 74's?

[Blackzenki82]

the main bulbs are 194's the two smaller ones are 74's... you need two of those and five of the 194's...

if you notice, i didn't put in the 74's (as i though it was similar to a S14 cluster and didn't use them), so by the "0" of the speedo, and tach, it's kind of dim, those are the areas the 74's light up... i've already ordered a set LOL.

if you DON'T change the 74's, the the "0"'s will be white, and wont look good with the rest of the coloring... me? i just pulled the bulbs out till my new ones come in, i'd rather have two dim spots, than two WHITE spots against my blue..

[amnash]

can you post the link to where you found the 74's?? nevermind. found them

[sullivanracing06]

bitch your the only gtr, not the only r32

[Blackzenki82]

never said i was the only 32, just the only GTR.... although yours is a super clean hybrid, and faster, but mine's still a GTR, so you can be as fast as you want brosive!


(SR06 is a fellow skyline owner here in town) needless to say, skyline car clubs are extremely lonely down here....

[leeaspin]

yeah, i'm the only GTR in gainesville, home of the Gators, bunch of college kids with half riced out cars jaw dropping and neck breaking.....




anyways... they do have a white vs hyper white option, just gotta get on ebay, search for "194 LEDs" and look for the ones i posted above... i think i got ten of em in a pack for like 6-7 USD...

what tires?

[Blackzenki82]

BFG KDW2 NT's

265/35's on all four corners...

[doc]

these the correct ones for the 74's ??

correctamundo...

although you only need two... but who know's, there might be other places to stick the remaining three... i know with my left over 194 "hyper whites" i stuck em in random places (trunk light, "fog lights") etc etc...



not really all that noticeable with the HIDs on though (blue attracts cops down here like flies to ****)

[doc]

cool ordered ... waiting on delivery ...

[Blackzenki82]

everyone should post pics as they do this... always nice to see peoples set ups, and color choices...

and man, for something so simple and cheap, it REALLY wakes up and modernizes the interior of your car...

VERY nice....

both our cars have around 146K hahah...

i notice you have those cluster aluminum rings, was thinking of ordering me a set, but wanted to see a better pic, looks clean!

although it looks like you have the same problem i'm worried about with those two 74 LEDs being a tad brighter than the 194s...

looks like i'll have to mix and match 74's till i find a suitable match for the 194s...



oh, and you're an a$$hole because your clock works....
