i believe normal r34s run H1s but for some reason mine run H3s....wats the issue here and do u no which i should use?

dude doenst really matter what bulb your car has just change it with the one thats in it

if it runs a H3 bulb change it to a H3 kit

you might have H3's as you might have the halogen headlight assemblies? Early on in the R34 compliance stage, the entire headlight assembly was being changed. Now they just modify the Xenon assemblies.

either way, unless i see some pics... R34 owners at least will prob be quite disappointed with any HID changeover.

You really need the OEM parts... but again, waiting on pics.

i hope i can count on u gohan to point me in the right direction with what kind of xenons i should get lol. i dont realli know why but i feel like H3s aint as good as the original h1s.....correct me if im wrong

you're wrong.

there is no different between the globe types, and what kind of light they produce.

if you had H3 in the left, and H1 in the right, you wouldnt notice a difference.

can u explain why they converted my h1s into h3s?

s15 run projector headlights, yes?

projectors have a nice clean cut off, and are best suited to Xenon bulbs. Hence 99% of factory Xenon headlights are put in projectors.

R34's have reflector assemblies. Do your headlights have the word 'Xenon' embossed anywhere?

When was your car complianced?

original globes wouldn't even be H1's. They would be like D2R Xenon bulbs. Originals weren't even halogen's.

nismos15, could you take a pice of your headlights pointing at a garage door or wall?

do you have any pics of this kit in a car without projector headlights?

i have the word Xenon right under my buld....my car was done back in feb

posted some pics up of my headlights here

Edited by anDru

i have seen the 2 bulbs together there is not much difference just that the part that the H1 bulb sits on is different to H3 one to fit different headlights but the light looks the same

im not to sure with the r34 headlights but if you like a h3 i can get one for you no probs

hey which ones do you have your s15? as gohan said the projectors have a nice clean cutoff, does this still apply with the xenons?

ie the light pattern on the road looks the same as normal globes, besides being brighter/whiter/etc of course?

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
