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...

NismoR34 I will be look for a pair of globes as mine will be destroyed via compliance; do you know of where I can get a cheap set?

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

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
