  1. Sounds interesting! However, I've never even been near a race track with a car...
  2. Wow, lookings amazing. Wish my car was up to the standard to show off, lol.
  3. Ah, no, I had no clue, lol. It's good that I am asking people. Thank you!
  4. Can anyone please confirm above? Don't want to order something that won't work/cant be fitted or will stuff up the lighting...
  5. Got Star Corps... They break and bend very easily... Guess it depends on luck. Lesson learnt is not to buy anything chinese...
  6. Ah, cool. So I have to get a D2R bulb with an HID ballast? Someone mentioned to me that it is H1 bulb... That's not right, right? Everyone refers on these forums to D2R. How come are fogs and high beams the same? They are different lights, thought would be different bulbs also... And also, I've read that people started to have their fogs turn on at the same time as parkers etc - that's due to bad wiring right? Not because of the HID kit?
  7. I don't think so. I am pretty sure the guy who complied it took it out, because he resells them to other cars. So I'll need an HID ballast too I gather? I am thinking low beam (the normal driving lights). I don't really use high beam much. I just want my car to have a more prestigious look when the lights are on.
  8. I am a bit of a noob in lights... I want to get HIDs from the group buy at http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Hi...y2-t242766.html Now, question I've been asked, is what type of a bulb I have. Is it correct to say it is H4? Do I need to specify anything else so it can be fitted into the V35? Or it wouldn't work? (I do want to keep my fog lights etc as it is) Any help in helping a lights noob would be appreciated
  9. Do you have anything for a V35 Coupe 2003? Do you know of anyone that can install them in Sydney? I rather not try to fit them myself...
  10. Hmmmm, from memory of mechanic doing it, I think it came straight off... If you're also changing the rear ones, make sure you adjust the handbrake.
  11. Nice!!! Day is going to start with a nice 1.5h cruise to the meeting spot! Yeah!
  12. Just checked the price of The Great American Run: "PRICE The event is open to all licensed drivers over the age of 18. The entry fee is $5,995 to include 1 car and 2 drivers ($5500 for previous entrants or bookings paid in full byDec 1, 2008)" And in Aus it costs 10k? Nearly the same amount of money? hmmmm.....
  13. Yeah, agreed... In US it might justify the price (which is like 4 times more I heard), cos in 2009 you start off with with a party in the playboy mansion. Will be interesting what's included in 2009 our one... I still wanna go!
  14. Size does matter. Simple physics - momentum. A smart car might have more safety stars to, lets say, a 1970s F-150, but if you hit an F-150 in a Smart, good luck to you. All those things won't count when a car more than twice the weight off yours 'swallows' up the momentum of the small car, leaving minor damage to the large car, and devastating to the small. Crumple zones are designed to increase the time of the impact, nothing more. It won't increase the mass of the car. And yes, I've had experience, unfortunately, of being involved big vs small car. Small car (lancer) written off, big car (fairmont) just bumper and radiator damage. I've known people who had accidents in Discoveries too. They had bumper damage, the other car had to have the whole back replaced.
  15. Not my car, but thats the way thats the factory did it in Japan. Mine arrived like that also, but then i tinted the front ones. Heaps of Jap (and I am sure others too) cars have rear windows really tinted as standard, while front ones not so. Safety reasons I guess.
  16. I really like the Infiniti FX... Too bad no one imports them...
  17. +1 to that. Also want them and wouldn't mind a recommendation based on experience.
  18. I remember the car being admired at, more by males and some females. Remember being asked about it at the petrol station and at traffic lights. These days only get a few glances. It seems they are plenty on the road and people got used to them...
