Got sick of my dated headlights so I just ordered these :P

shoulda got these ones...

I'm surprised at how many cars share the same sized unit! Like even old RX7s etc. It's good :woot:

Why's it surprise you? It's a standard ISO size that most manufacturers used for pop up headlights. RX7, MR2, Z31, 180SX, MX5, S12, Prelude(or is it integra?) all use the same.

Now I just gotta decide what globes to run. Might take the HID route (like 4300 or 6000k) or just a whiter standard globe (philips crystal vision or something).

don't put HID's into non projectors you gimp. You'll blind every kent on the road with your badly focussed beams.

shoulda got these ones...

I don't like the look of those ones. Have seen them on another car and not a fan of the round bit in the middle.

Yeah, I don't like HIDs.. but I want a clear white light. What are my other options?

get halogen bulbs colour temp rated about 6000K. 5200K is natural sunlight, 6000K is crisp white.

Yeah, 6000k would be perfect. I had 8000ks in my old MR2 and it was a bit too blue. Suited a black car but won't look good on red.

Where do I get them? Autobarn sell Crystal Vision but I don't think they're even close to 6000k...

I'm a big fan of sleepy eye conversions on pop ups, with any of these headlamps instead of standard ones:

I was going to go for REV6 headlights while the US dollar was strong but they're out of stock and I didn't want to wait another month.

Oh well, the raybrigs look pretty good anyway. They're 1/4 the price too. Just gotta source the globes.

    • You see R34 GTRs listed for 200-300k are they really selling for these prices? Kinda seems like the same ones listed all the time. Even with R33 GTSTs looking at gumtree. You have an auto with a bitsa interior for 35k. Another one needs an engine rebuild and asking 24k. And then you have a stock in better than average condition for 45k. Nobody is ever going to pay these prices.
    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
