I had tried to use my front turn signals as white DRLs when placing the light switch in the first position AND amber turn signals when needed. JDMAstar sells LED bulbs with the stock 1157 base that fit right in the housings and are advertised to do exactly what I wanted (they're called "switchback" bulbs because of the 2 functions). They worked erratically, with the turn signal activating spontaneously now and then so I pulled those out and went back to simple amber LEDs with the OEM amber lens with the stock functions. Then I found Zleds. Samuel makes LED boards which go from very simple to very complex programmable units that do all kinds of funky stuff. I just wanted the simple switchback functions WITH sequential turn signals. He took a couple of weeks to manufacture and I finally got around to installing them yesterday. Easy mod with safety benefits and cool factor. Here's a video of them working as DRLs and as sequential turn signals. Note that I had already wired in the front fender position lights to act as turn signals as well (posted elsewhere in this forum).

Hi everybody Lance here. I've been in Japan recently and visited Kameari's shop. Got my wallet empty and time to go back. They have a couple of parts like the 2400 valve cover and JDM taillight for sale. I've never seen some of the parts in the US. Overall a nice trip spotting tons of awesome cars! I'm not sure if anyone want me to do a write up about where did I go... I kinda feeling like doing one. Tons of pictures and Japan definitely have a interesting culture.

Just saw this. Maybe more headaches for Mike? http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/127731-hybridz-may-be-shutting-down/#entry1193850 @Mike

"They". The internet is full of bad people. Stay away from the internet. It's bad.

Not me. They are all A-Holes. Too many run ins with them. I also got 3 month suspension a couple times. They made their bed now sleep in it.

Got one of those new fangled dash cams.

You can hear the fuel pump struggling. The other thing you want to move it to just off the tank. I'm not aware of fuel pump that is designed to suck. Especially that distance.

Cleaned up the 3 remaining "D" hub caps tonight. Very pleased with their condition!

Needs more polish. Don't disappoint us.

No problem Site. Tony D does that to people. He is also apparently a nice guy in person. His internet persona is the bad one. Maybe people experience the words from the internet in different ways. There's probably a good psych study there somewhere. If Google hasn't done it already. I wonder how zcar.com survives.

I apologize Zed Head, you've helped me many more times than other. I have gotten a ton of help from Blue, more than my Dad. He's not familiar with foreign cars. Then I spent a week with him in Memphis. A week I'll never forget, all the guys are nicer in person but Phillip walked around and even fixed one on the side of a busy road one night about 11pm (Zup). He has a deep desire to help other people for no gain other than a Thank You and a handshake. I've never met anyone like him, probably never will in this hateful time we are going through, thanks President Trump you dickhead.

Recently manufactured garbage. Much discussed (with choice four-letter emphasis) when advertised on Farcebook. I thought you were against trash, or is it just the cheapo 'Made in China' type you don't like...?

Awesome!! Thanks for sharing. I love Japan... would have made a visit to meet some local guys in Tokyo but I was only there for 2 days earlier this year. Would love to see a write up if you get a chance. You can post it here or in our blogs section. Cheers! Mike
