they aren't supposed to replace your low beam bulbs. they are just a park light that is a ring around your headlight.

you can make them rather easily. all you need is some plastic rods (like the ones that are on house blinds that you twist for opening and closing them) some LEDs, a toaster (or heat gun to heat the rod up to bend it into shape), a hacksaw to score the rod to give the light somewhere to emit from.

there is a site somewhere on the net that shows you how to do it.

thats crazi man where did u get the parts? are the bright enoguh at nite?

at night there not really that bright........they put off a fair bit but its more for an effect and not a purpose if ya get what i mean.....

i bought em as a complete kit from a local wholesaler in adelaide, theyre actual spot lights with an angel ring

more importantly is the lights visible during the day?

yeah where did you get the parts

P.S without the front bumper at night it really looks like a mini cooper :P

looks mean as hell with the bumper, il post a pic........havnt got one at night though, im still in the process of getting some perspex covers made to make it look like i have proper headlights instead of 2 pairs of high powered spotties

one of my friends made some up for his soarer using the process mad082 explained. If done well they actually look really good. Although they are only there for looks they don't actually replace your headlights or really even give of any light at all like parkers (the bmw ones etc. obviously do cos their better). I have seen it done also on cars with square headlights and it looks gay, doesn't suit at all. If you have projector headlights (the little round dome type ones inside the headlight assembly) go for it they look awesome!

I like the idea of these custom made headlights, where are you guys buying the spotlights with them already, and got any pics of them out of the car, would be interested to see if a set could be 'incoroporated' into the standard headlight assembly....perhaps with a bit of modification.....

they look so much bigger on a silvia, looks tough though, very aggressive

i did my conversion about 8-9 months ago........wanted something cheaper then constantly replacing genuine headlights......besides its hard trying to be original these days

      Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
