Brand New D2r Hid Globes, Direct Drop-in For R34's With Factory Hid, 2 X 6000k And 1 X 8000k


Recommended Posts

As the title says, these are brand new drop-in replacements for those highly expensive HID D2R factory globes.

Can be replaced in minutes, I've got

2 x 6000K sets (very white)

1 x 8000K set (slight blue hue) SOLD

$75 for a set (2 globes) delivered express throughout Australia.

Hey Dan, how do these compare with the stock HID's? (The 6000k ones)

And would it match the color of your LED's?

They're very close in colour to the LEDs actually, I always think (being fussy) the stock HID are slightly less blue than the LEDs. This could be due to age of my factory ones though. Also the new bulbs have a slight colour shif after 500 hours and get a bit white-bluer.

Got decent white (but not noticeably illegal) replacements for halogens? Bastards at compliance never returned my Xenons...

Sorry no halogens, only HID

whats the kelvin rating on the stock HID's?

And can the wiring/loom handle 8000k

8000K refers to the colour temperature, they don't use any more current load than the stock globes, these are 35W just the same.

I've heard figures of 4200-4700K for stock...I'm tending toward the 4700K

i got 2 sets of dan awsome xennon bulbs .. huge diff over stock 4200k xennons.. thanks a bunch bud for them :banana: well worth the money

P.S my fatory booklet states mine was a 4200K maybe the earlier ones were different??.. 8000K is worth it :yes:

does the 8000k still light up as much or more as the standard ones?

I haven't done the 6000K side by side with the 8000K, but it was brighter than the stock ones, just with a bluer tinge to it. My stock ones are older though and probably getting toward the end of their useful life.

Dan just letting you know i found my steaga S2 lights they use D2R as well your 8000K ones fit in Steaga perfectly exact same setup as 34

S2 Steaga are Xennon Series one stock H4 or H1..

You turn the cover with one hand, keeping pressure on it, flip the plastic tab with your finger slightly and it'll jump over the screw. When you do it up, just don't force it past when you screw the cover back.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
