I have heard the globes [alone] can cost up to $700 each to replace!!!

I have also heard that for a pair of xenon headlights [whole assembly + globes] is around $2000 - this may be a 2nd hand price too. The r34 halogen headlights are approx $1000 2nd hand.

The other thread will help you out more...

If you are looking to buy a pair let me know and I will ask around for ya!

I havent had to replace mine yet - fingers crossed.

When I said

I was talking about the whole headlight assembly not just the globes - I was also talking 2nd hand stuff.

Plus I dont think I can just get the globes - the importer i know wouldnt separate them. Or are you talking about a whole set of headlights? wasnt clear.

There is a guy on here ylwgtr who I believe can get the globes for $250 approx - send him a PM or something. He can probably get the whole headlight too...

Or

Send a PM to Assassin [Andy] cause I know he bought some globes brand new for about $300...

I don't really think he's gonna leave us without globe's, lol. Or are you saying you want to put the Xenon one's back in? He said that they put in an adaptor or spacer or something like that. There's no chance that we can save them from the hammer :( as he was firm on that one but my exhaust is a differnt story :D . What I'm gonna try and do is swapsell them to another person importing an R34 who need's them for compliance.

yeah i've heard the same thing. full nissan headlight assembly is $2500 according to a friend who was replacing one from a smash. not hard to believe when you get quoted $250 for a set of front nissan brake pads! :D

as for halogens in the r34, afaik, when mine was complianced the xenon bulb is removed and a halogen is fitted with some extra wiring. here is a pic with the halogen bulb in and the xenon plug out.

dean from upimports should be able to help you.

So after compliancing, u just need to find yourself a pair of Xenon bulbs? (unless you somehow get to keep them, and put them in after) So they don't change the WHOLE headlight assembly? Cos i guess then if u can keep the original Xenon assembly, it's not TOO bad if u have to find some bulbs.

Daz is ur car being complianced by the INTERNATIONAL mob in sydney??

cheers

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
