they are H1, u will need 1 for each light .. just open the bonnect look behind the light .. its very easy once u see it... twist the cover open.. play around with the clip that holds it there ... you'll know when u see it .. and those blue xenons i don't think are blue at all .. just white .. they turn less white after a while of use ..

hope that helps

Get Philips or Osram. Both brands sell very good quality blue and white bulbs. Most of the other "blue" brands produce the wrong kind of blue (there are exceptions but I don't know of them). I am going to get some Philips white bulbs myself. They're only $80 for 4, but I am holding off until I get my tax refund. My insurance came in and it hurts :P

Narva bulbs are over-powered to get their brightness and as such tend to fail early.

well from what i know pretty much everything out there is pretty shit .. there is one brand called ... damn i can't remember ...oh yeah its PIAZZ ... its what u find in BMW and all them $$$ cars stock ... they are the whitest and brightest u will ever see ... but i think it costs like 150 a pair ... my cousin had them on his R33 and they looked the goods ... but if u can't afford them ... well just do what i do and get whatever cause you're goign to be replacing them heaps heheehe ... just don't get any grease on the bulb or u will be replacing them even more ... :mad:

The only place that used to sell them was a place in melb that closed down.... they were like $150 a pair but were marked up heaps. I got mine for like 70 bucks a pair from Hong Kong. There must be someone around in Aust (even a mail order place) that can get them for under a hundred bucks

The Philips Vision Plus I want to get are $40 a pair from Autobarn. I think Covingtons might be a bit cheaper, I will check there before I buy. I think the blue ones are in the same price range.

Hippy, I don't think they're illegal, but ask the shop guys. If you don't want to take their word then maybe ask the RTA, or just ask the cop when he pulls you over :D

Kdawgboostin33, I wouldn't bother changing the parkers. Why would you want to?

Hi Guys, though i'd post up some pics, theres hardly any difference looking at my crudy photos, but I have to say it really makes a difference when driving, i'd estimate about 30% better.

These are Philips Vison Plus ($39 from Autobarn) they were actually the cheapest ones they had. They have blue tips, but there is no blue element visible both when driving and looking at them from different angles with the naked eye.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
