ive been planning to get HID Xenons back into my car but many ppl have told this and that to me.

i realli want to convert my bulbs back to h1s i dont realli like the idea my cars been changed from factory settings. is this possible?

ive got the word "XENON" across my headlights and was wondering maybe they just took the bulbs out and left the assembly? can anyoone confirm this?

Your lights have been converted to halogen so they comply with ADR, the R34 xenons don't. You will find they took out the xenon globes, the balasts and they cut the plug that goes on the globe, depending on how close they cut the wire you may/maynot be able to reconvert back to xenons . Even if you could you have to have the balasts and globes .

The writing on the h/light assembly is there to tell you that the lights have been converted( as you said the lights still say Xenon on them ).

Converted xenons are shocking in the rain, i don't know how you put up with them. Factory halogens are good but of course factory xenons are much better.

Like i said R34 xenons don't comply with ADR ( not self laveling or self clean) so they did the right thing by convering them. If they cut the cable deep inside the h/light you can't re-convert them, your best option is to buy a set of xenons or go to the compliancer and offer to exchange them with a xenons for another car they comply. It will save them converting and you will have decent lights ( not legal though)

everything should work correct?

i just need a set of h3s....right?

::EDIT just had a talk with kamikaze mortors (the ppl who complienced my car) and they told me my convertion should of been toa h1....he said that his pretty sure a h3 should fit into a h1 socket.....so maybe i just bought a h3 buld?

can anyone firm if H3s fit into H1s?

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
