GTR start button
 

Has anyone noticed that the 2013 370Z start button is different? It says engine on the button rather than the bezel around it like other years. As far as I know, the GTR button hasn't been changed. My question is does anyone know if the connector in the back is the same or did they change that as well? Anyone install a GTR start button on a 2013 can confirm the connection in the back hasn't been changed?

It's exactly the same. I've already done the swap on mine.

Here's the DIY in case you need it or haven't found it:

GT-R start button swap.

i can't imagine it would given that the function's need to be the same.

Thanks, and what color does the word engine light as? I would assume everything is still orange-ish...

Your recent threads shock me, because they're all not stupid questions, so keep it up!
As for the "engine" part being lit... It's not... And yep, everything else is orangish

Thanks dude, I hate being the f-ing new guy if you know what I mean. So, the engine part doesn't light up at all? I've seen pics of it blue on GTRs but I wasn't sure if they were modified or anything.

Those are all modified, like even on mine I changed all the orangish to red because I wanted it to look mean(er)

Or perhaps the real reason is to distinguish it from the stereo/AC buttons. Yeah some people do...:bowrofl:

Haha, I can understand that.

Love the look of the GT-R button, it was one of my first mods :tup:

What's lit is still amber in color. I can't remember what all is lit up... I'm too tired and didn't pay attention on my drive home. :icon17:

:rofl2:

You have no idea how much his threads, that aren't stupid questions pissed me off, LOL!!!
They're all legit, and we haven't had a string of pretty legit questions coming from a single member

We need to bring back fabio for his dumbazz posts lol.

I hate to sound like an a$$ but I'm honestly worried that when I post something someone is going to say use the search button. You know what's really funny when you search a lot of things on this forum. The more recent threads on a subject don't have any real info and just basically say you're an idiot for not searching first. Which basically makes the search feature useless because it's filled with threads that all say use the search button (without any references/links). You can't expect someone to search back 4 years to the very first thread on whatever subject that hasn't been posted on in over 2 years. So, that's kind of where I'm coming from when I say sorry for the stupid question. I honestly tried searching with no luck, it happens and I think we all need to remember that at times.

Can you confirm if the engine part lights up at all and if it does what color is it? I haven't installed my button yet but it looks like the word engine is supposed to light up. All the videos I searched on youtube show it lighting up, but half of them are in the different colors so I know somethings modified somewhere.

Honestly if you type your question into google its A LOT easier to find what your looking for. Thats what I do. I rarely use the search button. Who cares what people say. In the end as long as you learned the answer to your question(s) then thats all that should matter.

That's a really good idea which I started to do recently with some surprisingly good results compared to the search feature here. Wish I would of thought of that sooner. I agree though, as long as you learn something/got the answer to your question(s) that's all that should matter. I guess I just don't see why some people have to be an a$$ about it for no real reason. Oh well, maybe I'm just a bit bitter today. But, seriously thanks for your posts/replies. Lots of good info.

Some people just don't have anything better to do than to talk shiiiit. Everyone asks questions for one reason, because they obviously don't know the answer. PM me if you want help or advice :tup:

mine doesnt light up. And I modded mine to red and its still not lit.

Thanks, I'll definitely do that if/when something comes up.

That's odd, where and how did you mod it?

You're fine, I like your threads a lot actually!


BTW, for the search, do this but change "gtr start button" to whatever you want:
Let me google that for you

DEFINITELY doesn't light up

^F this guy, I'm up later, well, 24/7, LOL
Shoot me a text anytime about ANYTHING (hopefully 370Z related?) (31O)eight nine three-42O7
(and don't worry, you won't be the first, second, or last person who texts me random questions) :roflpuke2:

Yeah well screw you buddy lol. OP text him anything unrelated to a 370z just to piss him off. :stirthepot:

I'll take a pic here in a minute if it and post it.

That's a good point. I was one of the d!ck to ask people to use the search button without any help I admit.:shakes head: But soon enough I've learned to at least provide some helpful information along with the prompt of search. Or I just say nothing if I can't anwser the question. I understand both sides tho. It IS quite annoying for some new members just open a new thread on some questions that can be easily answered by the search. But in your case, I think it's valid and nobody should blame on you for opening this thread. My only advise would be the title could be a little more specific like "GTR start button on 2013 models" so that it would be easiler for other people want to search on the same matter. Just my 2 cents.:tiphat:

:iagree: Google search actually returns better results sometimes. Use both methods anyways.

just took it apart and switched the leds out.

Haha, I haven't seen that let me google it for you thing in years. Made me laugh a little thanks.

lol, I knew you meant 370Z. It's all good.

Thanks! And, if anyone is wondering yes I'm trying to post as many post as possible, haha. I just realized you can do multiple quotes.
