Hey all,

Me and my mate just installed my new 6000K HID's in my R34, they seem to be working fine... Now. Lol. When we first turned them on, they were working fine, so we started cleaning up and we were gonna leave them on for 10 minutes just as a burn in period. But after about a minute, the left hand headlight just turned off. So we checked everything, everything was still connected and seemed to be fine. So i turned them off and on again and it just came back on. It stayed on for the 10 minutes this time, so it seems to be working fine now. I just wanted to find out what would cause it to do that and if it might happen again?

I must say, they look sick! Ridiculously bright lol, but sooooooooo cool!

Cheers for any suggestions or ideas =]

Well it happened again last night when i was driving, except on the other side this time. Works fine again when i turn them off and on though, and stays on. Only happens when i first try to turn them on.

They work perfectly after that initial fault

Got em off eBay, so they only set me back $92! :down:

Had a look though, and its the exact same kit that all the shops are selling around here for $300.

I have the warranty, so i can get a replacement if needed, you guys think its necessary?

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
