Hi All,

As some of you have seen on the VIC meet day, I was very happy getting my internal bulbs replaced with SMDs. SMDs are much brighter than LEDs and are the next generation technology in diodes for white light (equivalent to 6000K). Please note that I am purely wanting to help you out on pimping your ride so I am setting up this Expression Of Interest for SMD White Lights (hopefully resulting in a large batch order group buy). Obviously SMDs cost more than LEDs but it is well worth the money to get brighter lights. I previously did a few cars with LEDs and they were crappy...Do you own research.

After fitting out my wife's Mazda 3, my V35, my MX5 and the rest of the family cars, I have found a very good supplier in China and will enquire about a large group buy order (depending on the amount of interest).

I know for a fact, that if you have a sedan, you'll need:

6 x 31mm festoons

2 x T10s

2 x T5s (depends on if you have the footwell lights installed by the dealer).

Here are the pics of my bulb replacements...very bright (all 6000k white light)!

1. Map lights:

2. Front passenger door underlight:

3. Front driver door underlight:

4. Rear passenger lights (left passenger one shown only):

5. Front passenger footwell light:

6. Front driver footwell light:

7. Rear licence plate light:

8. Boot light:

Please note that all the lights are the one colour - approx 6000K white light....

This order will be restricted to white SMDs of the following types only only:

31mm Festoon - containing 6 SMDs each bulb (see pics 1, 2, 3 and 4). These are about $9.20 each delivered to me currently.

T10 - containing 4 SMDs each bulb (see pics 7 and 8). These are about $4.00 each delivered to me currently.

T5 - containing 1 SMD each bulb (see pics 5 and 6). These are about $2.70 each delivered to me currently.

I know the above prices are cheaper than eBay (and cheaper than Jaycar), and the more that we buy, the prices will drop further...To save money, they will be posted to me, and I will pack them in jiffy bags and send them off to you.

If you require LEDs, you will need to buy elsewhere as I refuse to arrange an order for inferior products.

Please count and check you requirements as it's different for V35 Coupes and later model V35 sedans (maybe)...Obviously, this EOI / GB is not restricted to V35s only....

email me if you have an enquiry: siu_loong_bao @ hotmail.com

Nel.

UPDATE:

After reading the rules on GBs, please note the following:

1. I am not the seller.

2. These bulbs are direct from a Shanghai, CHINA factory who make heaps of LEDS, HIDs, SMDs, etc....

3. Cut-off date is 31st Aug 2009.

4. Once they arrive, you can come to west side of Melb to pickup, or they will be posted in a jiffy bag, and postage will vary according to you location.

These are pics of the SMD bulbs:

Also, if you want to do your front fog/haze lights (located in the highbeam reflector housing), then you'll need some T10s...

I haven't done mine yet, but this is the light I am talking about:

Hey Nelson how are ya?

I'm keen to get them, put my name down!

Thanks MILLOS...

****To make it easier, all interested members, please fill this out:*****

Forum ID:

31mm Festoon (Quantity):

T10 (Quantity):

T5 (Quantity):

Location (Suburb & State):

Since half the posts have gone missing, those who were interested, please repost again.

If there is continued little interest, then this EOI/GB will be cancelled...

As i've said before - nicely - GB's are to be in the GB section only.

They must follow the GB guidelines that are setout in that section.

There is key information missing that is not inline with forum policy.

The rules are there to protect members, i am not saying you are dodgy, however we must try our best to look after people.

My requests for GB's to correctly follow the rules i do not feel is out of line... please do so.

R31Nismoid - Please lock this thread...

A new GB Thread has been created:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Gb...te-t281566.html

If you are interested, please post in the new thread...

danny_tg - yes, you'll need 4 x 31mm Festoons.

Apologies for the inconvenience...

    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
