Looking at gettin a new set of bulbs for my liner....the older ones are starting to become less efficient!

What rating HID should i look at? (1000k, 2000k, 3000k, etc, etc) and is there a legal limit to how bright and whatever you can go?

also there are slight coloured ones? are there any colours that they sell that are illegal.....lookin at possibly an arctic white or ice blue or something like that.....

anyway..can u plz give me some guidance and experiences...

Cheers

Matt

is it 1000 is the brightest or 10000 is the brightest?

i am lookin at a 4000k set at the moment....

The brightest would be 4300k which is the same colour as sunlight. As you go lower than that, the colour goes yellow, up and it goes blue then eventually ultraviolet.

so closer to 10000 is the blue-ish look?

10,000k would be already purple as far as I know. I've got 6000k globes and they're a touch too blue for me already. In my opinion, don't go over 6000k at all. 4300k would be the best globe to get, but if you want a little blue to it, get 6000k. Anymore and you're getting shittier light output and having colour instead.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler?
