I got T10 42 SMD LED bulbs for my parkers and 8000K Xenon gas HID. Very happy with it. Haven't got myself a high beam kit yet but will be getting another HID for my high beams.

Philips 5000K Diamond Vision - True white, everything appears as if they were in sunlight. may appear slightly yellowish on some angles but its pure white.

HID 8000K - 55W Ballasts and bulbs, disgregard the greenish tint coming from the lights. the camera picks up the green coming from my yellowish lens.

These will make your yellow street signs, car plates or whatever you have yellow in WA, appear green haha. Kinda awesome. But they go great for under $100 on eBay.

Sorry for R33 GTR, I have xenon headlights although im not liking the yellow colour..

Change the bulbs if you already have a HID kit installed. Perhaps you have 5000K xenons. 6000k is white i think and anything beyond that starts to go blue.

HIDs take awhile to warm up, so they're not the best for high beams imo. And I have a feeling ballasts may not like the lights being turned on/off a lot (unless you live in woop and drive with your highbeams everywhere avoiding wildlife?)

Gonna give it a shot and see how long they last. but HID for high beams, sh!t gets real right there.

Hi guy just wanna check if any of you can post up the ebay link for the HID conversion kit. Thinking of changing my R33 halogen bulbs to HID if possible. Just love those white/blue-ish lights.

Is this a right one? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/H1-35W-6000K-AC-Xenon-HID-kit-R33-Skyline-Low-Beam-/270985204866?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f17fa1482#ht_4426wt_1002

I have 2 different Kits, these ones are in my High beams and start 2-3 times faster then the cheap kit I put in my low beams

ive been doing a shit load of reading..... Everyone who has used the 55w for lowbeam said its way way to bright.

Re your link- They dont come with the ballasts? Seems very pricey for what they are,

so your 33 uses Xenons? when i bought my car i was told it had exenon headlights.... But he also told me the cracked jap snow tyres on the car were, Awsome rubber... So i took everything after that with less then a grain of salt.

What the hell? They obviously come with Ballasts. They are pictured with the Ballasts and it says each kit comes with a Ballast.

Only some GTR's came with Xenons and they should have been removed for compliance.

And I just said I have this kit IN MY HIGH BEAM's. I have 35w in my low beam

This is why I'm suggesting this kit, I have a cheap kit in my low beams and the more expensive kit as linked is much better. You wanted advice and I gave it. If you want to do a Xenon conversion this kit is good

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
