Ignitors For Xenon's

Hey guys,

A mate of mine who does HID conversion mainly for beemers has told me he has a few sets of ignitors coming in for the V35's.

For those that don't know these are the silver wrapped wires that bulb plugs into one end and the other end goes to the ballast. The workshops usually cut the ignitors.

Mine arrived a week or so ago. All that's left know is re-wire and plug in new globes and I'm back to Xenon :-) (As long as you still have the ballast.

Let me know if you interested and I'll get you in contact with him.

Cheers

Bobby

thanks for that McLovin.

I have been trying to chase down a complete HID set but maybe if I have these I can scrounge the rest together

My mate that helped me locate these says he has ordered a couple of sets.

Do you want me to look into it and find out if he has them and how much?

Cheers

Bobby

these are for the sedan arent they?

daxx, I've only ever investigated about the coupe.

If you can find out what brand the ballasts are in the stock sedan then I'll check with my mate. The coupe ones are mitsu*** something and I'd imagine that they would be the same on the sedan but better check to be safe.

Just did a quick check and if the US and japan sedan ballasts are the same then we have a problem.

Here is a sedan ballast and it's very different to the coupe ballast

      Rb26 iron block limit

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.

      Running rich in conditions where it shouldn't probably won't do great things for catalytic converter lifespan. I would fix that sooner than later.

      Yes, important point. Watch the Motive videos with Herman thickness testing the bores and deck. You do not want to push the unlucky (thin) block as hard as you can push the average block.
