Hey guys, Well i have a series 1 R33 gts-t, and the original lights i find to be farely dim (the driving lights) I have been looking around for some decent xenon's but since skylines have 1 pin light bulbs is been a bit of a B*!@%!! so if anyone know where i can get a decent pair for a decent price or you happen to have some sitting at home (ye right lol) plz let me know! I have seen this skyline around with the kinda xenon's BMW's have, so there are some around! BY the way im from Melbroune!

Thanks,

Din.

I thought xenon headlights were a completely different setup to the standard Sklyine setup (excluding the Series 3s as they came standard with xenons).

You may have to look into changing your entire headlight setup if you want true xenons. If you just want the white light with blue tinge, Autobahn or Supercheap Autos sells them I believe.

Ye i think if i want the real deal xenon's i need to change the whole light set up and thats a lot of $$$. So i jus went down to autbarn today and bout a pair of philleps artic xenon gas flled lights for 80 bucks. Works a treat. Thanks guys.

nah u dun have to change the whole light setup.. u can still maintain the original headlamp assy, just have to wire in a xenon kit an prob retrofit the globe connectors... u can do this to just ur dipped beam or ur high beam as well (requires additional kit, 1 per pair)... cheapest kit i've come across is the vision hid kit made in taiwan for $900... i'm not sure if this price includes globes bcos i think xenon globes cost about $200/pr??? if it does, then it's sure worth considering since dj_lethal spent $400 on halogen globes which have less than half the lifespan of a xenon globe...

but there are the xenon discharge system where the light is difracted and therefore pure white, like on Euro cars and the R34 GTR. THey have that magnifying lens that makes it look so good, or else yeah just the chepo light bulbs

    • I’m here solo don’t have any hands to help so haven’t hit it with a timing light 
    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
