they aren't supposed to replace your low beam bulbs. they are just a park light that is a ring around your headlight.

you can make them rather easily. all you need is some plastic rods (like the ones that are on house blinds that you twist for opening and closing them) some LEDs, a toaster (or heat gun to heat the rod up to bend it into shape), a hacksaw to score the rod to give the light somewhere to emit from.

there is a site somewhere on the net that shows you how to do it.

thats crazi man where did u get the parts? are the bright enoguh at nite?

at night there not really that bright........they put off a fair bit but its more for an effect and not a purpose if ya get what i mean.....

i bought em as a complete kit from a local wholesaler in adelaide, theyre actual spot lights with an angel ring

more importantly is the lights visible during the day?

yeah where did you get the parts

P.S without the front bumper at night it really looks like a mini cooper :P

looks mean as hell with the bumper, il post a pic........havnt got one at night though, im still in the process of getting some perspex covers made to make it look like i have proper headlights instead of 2 pairs of high powered spotties

one of my friends made some up for his soarer using the process mad082 explained. If done well they actually look really good. Although they are only there for looks they don't actually replace your headlights or really even give of any light at all like parkers (the bmw ones etc. obviously do cos their better). I have seen it done also on cars with square headlights and it looks gay, doesn't suit at all. If you have projector headlights (the little round dome type ones inside the headlight assembly) go for it they look awesome!

I like the idea of these custom made headlights, where are you guys buying the spotlights with them already, and got any pics of them out of the car, would be interested to see if a set could be 'incoroporated' into the standard headlight assembly....perhaps with a bit of modification.....

they look so much bigger on a silvia, looks tough though, very aggressive

i did my conversion about 8-9 months ago........wanted something cheaper then constantly replacing genuine headlights......besides its hard trying to be original these days

    • After throttle body? I’ve heard that you should not do that. Even if you look at the diagrams they show you that you should take boost from turbo.
    • What do you mean with ”hot side”?  From what I’ve heard is that you should take it as close to the turbo as possible? 
    • Like on the intercooler pipe between turbo and intercooler?  Still weird why they don’t put an output on the turbo since you will need one. There is one for the RPM of the turbo..  are they doing this because they want you to take the boost reference from somewhere else except the turbo?
    • That wouldn’t work especially well? 🤔
    • Hi all, I’ve just finished fitting the timing belt on my RB25, following the standard procedure: rotate the crank twice, release the tensioner, then tighten it down. The belt feels tight, and you can see that clearly in the picture below I’ve heard some people say it’s actually better for the belt to be slightly loose rather than too tight, as excessive tension can lead to snapping. So that’s in the back of my mind. What I’m seeing is this:  • At idle, the belt looks fine.  • But when cranking and especially when revving (around 3–4,000 RPM), there’s a momentary flap/flex or flicker in the belt, which I’ve tried to capture in the video. So my question is — based on what you see, is this slight belt movement something you’d consider normal, or am I just being OCD? Could this amount of movement cause sync issues? Or is it just a harmless bit of flex under load?   from what I know belt flap and flex is expected when crank spins up and pull cam with it Would appreciate any thoughts or similar experiences.     IMG_7656.mov IMG_7657.mov
