I would have done a straight swap...considering you'd have to pay $$$ to get your HID converted to halogen anyway.....if you end up being stuck just PM me, I'm in Brisbane too.

Dan

I don't have to pay $$$ to get my HID converted. I have to pay $$$ for a pair of halogen headlights. I can either pay $$$ for the halogens and sell the Xenons for $$$x2 or do a swap with someone plus a cash adjustment of only $$ and not $$$.

Who in their right mind would do a straight swap!? Try getting a pair of Xenons from a wrecker and see how much they cost :)

Fair's fair.

I'd be interested in buying them as I'm contemplating doing an R34 headlight conversion on my R33 Gts-t.

What price would you sell them for straight up?

I think I still have some metal inserts that will allow you to use H1 halogen globes in your xenon housings.

PM me if you're interested and I'll dig around.

Thanks man, but I need the full halogen headlight assy for compliancing. They won't accept a Xenon headlight with a halogen bulb.

U guys realise that a xenon headlight assembly cost 2600 each from Nissan. I know cause i just bought one 2 weeks ago for 1400 at a wrecker. Thats 1400 each, second hand. Hey Rigo if u cant sell it here call some of the Sydney wreckers. I bet u could sell it easy for 1500 a pair. Try powerplay in Sydney they were selling them for 1500 each.

Hmm ... i wrote a reply but it didnt get posted. Just thought u guys should know that Xenons are 2600 each new, i just bought a front left side, second hand 1 for 1400. So Rigo if u dont have any success im sure the wreckers would buy your pair for 1500 quite easily. Last time i checked a stock complete headlight assembly from Nissan is 900 each.

Yeah, I'm gonna sell the lights separately now. I have already sent the car to Sydney for compliancing so won't be doing a swap. I will give a couple of wreckers a call.

Thanks...

    • I'd say the easiest way is, pick up a extended and baffled sump with fittings already welded on. Here is an example, it has 3 x -10 fittings  https://shop.maatouksracing.com.au/products/rb-extended-and-baffled-sump
    • hey OP can you remind me what the actual question was, I got sidetracked at V12. Do you have an turbo oil return leak and an unidentified coolant leak? The factory oil returns are terrible design; short, rubber and expensive to replace. They are very common to fail and a pain to replace because they are so short. Still, they are available new if you want to replace both last time I checked. For the coolant leak, any competent mechanic should be able to do a pressure test; that should show up where the leak is. It is almost certainly one of the billion 30 year old rubber lines which are now brittle as hell, you engine will be fine.
    • From the OP's description, sounds to me like the TCU is in 'limp home' mode --- that is, no actuation power to shift solenoids, and the EPC valve is shut (full line pressure). This effectively sticks the box in 3rd gear, with as much line pressure as possible, to try hold the high clutch clamped shut....and so you get woeful acceleration and don't feel any shifts (because they're not happening). If you don't have Consult or some other scanner to interrogate the TCU itself, you can test with a multimeter to see if it's in limp home mode....ie; stick it in D with engine at idle (hold vehicle with hand/foot brake), and measure the voltage at the TCU feeding shift solenoids A & B -- both should be ON (battery voltage). If they are energized at the TCU, you can unplug the harness from the TCU, and check resistance down through the wiring to the solenoids themselves -- you should see about 20ohms on each coil --- if you do, you can presume the wiring to shift solenoids is OK -- if both measure open circuit, you have to check intermediate connectors in the loom down to the gearbox (and the gearbox connector itself), and check the shift solenoid resistance at the gearbox connector itself --- if the shift solenoids test open circuit here, problem is in the box (ether the solenoids or wiring to them is bad). If you get no voltage at TCU connector for the shift solenoids (and the solenoids/wiring test OK), check powers/grounds to the TCU itself --- if they're ok, it suggests the TCU is the culprit (and you'd need to interrogate it if possible, to find out why it's behaving badly)... 
    • Hey mate give Autotechnica a go, I recently got some Comfort PUs and rails from them, they're comfy and look great highly recommended! https://www.autotecnica.com.au/part-finder/nissan/skyline/r32/
    • Honestly, for a daily I would gladly rock a Camry. The more disposable the better. People drive horribly out here and road conditions are awful.
