I'm assuming this is not the lighting spread I should be seeing from the driver's seat of my 35. They are from the projectors of an 06 coupe on low beams. High beams are not much different. :starwars:

Does anybody what the problem may be?

Cheers.

Edit: bmp attached not showing up ... sorry.

Wonder what happened to the thread. For the rest of you guys, here is "my spread" again.

Hi Frank

Yes, they're projectors. And yes both the lamps are lit.

You can't see it clearly from the picture, but there's light on the left side ... it's like ambient light on the road, not direct beam as on the right. It is however coming from the left projector coz when I physically covered the right projector, there is still the same ambient light on the road.

Looking directly at the projectors, you wouldn't know that they're so off in terms of spread.

Cheers

Ohh I forgot to add, I did try to adjust using the adjustment screws. It had absolutely no effect on the beam ... :)

Also thansk to xscape237 for talking and posting the pics.

Hi Mate.

Have you ever tried to park you car against a wall to see the cut off and beam? (say 5 meters away)

That will make the job much easier.

BTW from cut off. we can see whether your headlight is JDM or USDM and whether it is upside down or been in accident.

Cheers

Yeah it is possible that something may be installed upside down. That has crossed my mind. I've got the Infiniti service manual, think I'll have to open it up to take a look. Hopefully the assembly is identical to the JDM projectors.

The lights should be JDM. I'm the first owner in Oz for the car. Fingers crossed ... no accidents before. I'll look for a nice white wall and flat ground tonight to see the cutoff.

The adjustment screws actually had no effect on the beam spread.

I'm robbed of the joys of having HIDs. I'm one of those ppl who really like HIDs headlights ... :P

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
