Hi all

i have an aftermarket HID for my R34, but it's made the parkers look like yellow pieces of poo. Just wondering if anyone has LED bulbs for parkers? Knows of anyone that sells LED bulbs for parkers?

i'm not exactly sure what type of bulb my parkers would take anyway...

cheers,

daniel

Got mine from Autobarn...jst ask for parker bulbs and ask for the white light ones...the bulbs are normally blue but emit a whitish light..cost $10 for the 2. They are a wedge type bulb. easy as to replace too. You could remove ur existing one and just take it in to them to make sure u have the correct ones.

+ PARKER (WEDGE) - SMALL LIGHTS IN FRONT

++ POLARG M4 (BRIGHT) - $20 A PAIR

++ POLARG L01 (BRIGTHER)* - $25 A PAIR

++ POLARG J51 LED (BRIGHTEST)* - $49 A PAIR

I believe all 3 are the same fit, just different brightness.

Go buy a set and tell us how bright is brightest :cool:

I just installed HID for my R32 and the parkers looks like candel lights.

I then bought the following, now they almost have the same colour.

The LED are T10 which I assume is the same in R34.

How difficult are they to install? Do you have to drop the front bar?

nope piece of cake! parkers are located at the corner, if your hands are small enough, just stick ur hands in there...twist, pull out the whole socket, replace bulb, stick it back in, twist to lock and bobs ur uncle! I replaced both of mine in like less than 5 mins.

yeah, it's quite easy, just a little tight and fiddly. I noticed too that if either don't have everything connected up, or you don't have your front indicators connected up, you indicate at a quicker pace :P so if one day you car indicates very quickly (in terms of temp) something might not be connected

anywho... what's the specs i'm looking at?

12 V, 50 W? Wedge type, is that what a parker is? I'm not going to buy a $49 pair if there are like $10 on ebay. I'm happy to be guinea pig... just not sure what the "details" for our parkers are...

The LED are T10 which I assume is the same in R34.

can anyone confirm if these will fit an R34? if they do, i'm happy to give them a go for the price! cheap as chips!

I had something like the following on me old R34

Except the one I got was from US and it was 16led ones. Dont get any that even have a small amount of blue, as the lense inside the parker casing sorta amplifies the blue color and you will get a nice little defect (speaking from experience). I would go with ones that have more led than one or two as they will put out more light and would fit much better with HIDs in terms of color (unless its the lex led ones).

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
