not sure if this is the right section, but basically i want to get some nice globes for my headlights.

i want to get a sort of blue colour for headlights and parkers. i am not after the little blue neons ppl put in there parkers, but i think they are the ones that have a higher wattage.

i am really in the dark about the different types of colours available. but all i know is that i am chasing my headlights to emit a cool blue colour. if any one has any pixs and suggestions it would be much appreiciated.

also its for a S2 skyline

cheers

personally i think that you should stick to the standard one from nissan,i went an bought a 100w globes for my high beam an they turned out to be

sh't, no were near as bright as the standard one an twice the cost

i'v been told that any globs that are coloured are not going to be very bright but they look good

:D you insane 100w globes? I hope you mean 55w because 100w can melt your headlight casing! suppose it would depend on the type of headlight setup but most HID to Halogen take 55w!

Neways moving along

Polarg are best ..

Phillips Diamond vision if you wanna pay more but they come with parkers too ;)

I too bought new lights from repco etc .. $60 or something .. Total crap one blew within a month second in 3 months .. when i replaced the one that blew with the old one which i removed to install the repco crap they look exactly the same :D

I went and bought new HID headlights after that .. extreme yes .. but eh

Don't go with the higher wattage globes. You'll risk melting the headlight housing.

If you want the blue parker and globes, have a look on ebay. They've got all different types of colours.

In my opinion, just stay with the standard colour. Just get some decent quality Phillip's globes.

you better stick with genuine standard yellow light unless buy HID kit...

i bought globes and parkers from ebay. the parkers are great. but the light isnt bright enough.. its very hard to see at night without other lights such as street light or something... its like nothings infront of you you cant see your lights...

and they dead after 1month.. just go HID kit if you really want bright and blue colour..

Hey mate i have Phillips diamond vision in my s2 and they work fine. if you want a globe with a blue tinge, dont go any other the other lower priced ones in the phillips range as they dont seem to look that different from stock. The diamond vision arn't that expensive from memory - you dont get parkers with them either - at least i didn't. I payed under 100 but was a while ago and i cant remember exactly.

As for the parkers what you want is just white spade bit led's. the white led will come up slightly blue and works well with the diamond vision headlamp which will give you the bright white / blue glow. Do not get blue led's or blue style bulbs for parkers as they will actually look dark blue and very cr#p My only thing now is to change the fog / driving lights to a whiter bulb as the headlamps are are bright blue white which makes the fogs look real yellow.

      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

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
