For $300-$400 it'll be china special HID's in there anyhow. I just picked up my china special HID for ~$200 :P

I dont expect it to last forever though but if i get 5 years ill be happy for the money spent.

You cant buy Philips (and other brands with decent warranty etc etc) for less than around $800-$1000 if memory servers me correct.

I think some people are simply sick of having the same headlights as every other Skyline on the road....I know I am...and wouldnt mind a change to something a little different, HID or not...if someone wants to stick a thousand bucks worth of Philips goodness into them, then good luck to them, but the objective here is a different appearence to the boring factory look.

possible to have less chrome?

Agreed. I'd like to seem them mostly black with an agressive look to them. Something along the lines of an S15/R34 GTR headlight look.

Maybe we could draw up some designs or something?

can a mod please add a poll to this with the options series 1, series 2 and GTR? better indication of numbers

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
