hey all,

i recently bought my R34 GT25...has factory xenon headlights, but the xenon bulbs were changed during compliance, the xenon headlights are still there, just the bulb appears to be changed, got a couple of questions.

1) is there anyway to get hold of stock r34 xenon bulbs?

2) if not, how much are bulbs which have the same colour light as the stock xenons?

Cheers

hid kit is easier to install.. as they installed a "spacer ring" in your light to hod the h1 bulb.. and hid kit works well (NYTSKY) can prob still supply you a kit.. but some think you get more glare from the HID as it was designed for the xenon.. myself am more than happy with the HID kit

stock xenon bulbs are 4300k ... I put 6000k on mine as they have a slight blue tinge. 8000k is noticably bluish it's just that people get used to them and think they're not

not true, it varies with the manufacturer, i have seen some 8000k kits that are ridiculously blue, as for mine, i have asked people who have been driving in front of me, and i have looked from a distance myself, and they only have a tinge of blue.

+1, wanted to change mine to HID too but don't want the trouble of getting defected.

Yea, my mate has a full stock R34 with factory HID, on P's. He got pulled over by a cop one day and got questioned about his HID, he's like they are stock and came from factory. But the cop said to him, it doesn't matter, they aren't even meant to be on there, as they aren't self-adjusting.

So at the end, he got dicked for it lol.

Not sure what you mean by self adjusting, but they can be dipped with the factory in car dial thingy near the coin slot, that said, i am aware that they are still illegal...

With the current volume of new cars with HID standard, it's not really being targeted anymore. Too hard basket.

Also HIDs are never 100% the correct colour when you first put them in, they change over about 300-500hours to get to the final temp colour they were advertised as.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
