To my knowledge, if its HID.. then it must have a ballast, ignitor and the rest of it..

if it says HID globe, i reckon its just trying to draw attention to ppl that it might be "HID-like" but its actually just a white halogen bulb.

Just get some branded globes (eg philips, narva) with the proper rating to your stock bulbs

+1 to what he's saying, but I can't seem to get the eBay link to work.

I've got the cheap HID kits installed in my R32's projectors and I have to admit, they're shit. They produce much better lighting at night, but also quite a lot of glare and hot spots. I'd recommend getting some name brand globes.

Yeah, I agree too... I was thinking of getting a HID kit too... but with HID's - they will gradually get dimmer and then whitish yellowy after a while - also, too much glare... I'd recommend the Phillips Diamond Vision range - very nice clear white light and very durable would last you a couple of years, I'd say.

there not an proper xenon light they are gas filled halogen lights, iv tryed the best brands most expensive and the results wernt much better

Yep, I know what you mean mate. Next thing to do is get a retrofit all setup and ready to go. With what your car's gone through, you wouldn't want your car to have shit glary headlights. Retrofit it!

Hey 32JEZ, how do those ebay globes compare to Philip Diamond Range? Whiter, brighter?? Anyone else can vouch for these globes?

Didnt think the phillips ones came in a h3c, on other cars have run 6mm wire direct from the baterry via a relay helped quite a bit

Havn't tried it yet on the 32 but might have ta the stock lights are crap mine had raybrig? globes when I got it there pretty well known and xpensive

actually think they were pretty average but who knows how old they were?

Couldnt direct ya to a skyline one but there is one for doing it to a jeep :P

all pretty well much of a muchness would save some wear an tear on ya headlight switch too

as it is only triggering the lights not carrying any real load

http://go.jeep-xj.info/HowtoHeadlightLoom.htm

and have to agree with comments about limiting the wattage used have replaced my jeep lights with glass ones to run higher wattage 100/130's

have seen others melt toyota 4B lights using similar bulbs

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
