Hi guys,

I have had my stagea for a few months now, was happy with the halogens that were put in during compliance, however i asked them to keep the plugs and globes for me.

So the other day my drivers side halogen light went out, so I decided it was time to install the xenons.

The big plug for the HID globes was just tucked in there, so pulled it out and plugged in the globe, but no luck.

Here is a pic of the headlights & wiring, hopefully it is something that compliance has done in rigging up the halogens as there is two wires that have been cut as shown below.

Hopefully someone can tell me what the problem is!

Cheers

Sam

hey mate...

all you need to do is get power to the cut wires when headlights are on.... from what i can see they have taken off the plug that the loose one plugs into...

i rekn all you gota do it cut the plug that was dangling... and crimp it to the wires that are cut :).... remember not to touch your xenon globes!... a there f**kING hot... b you dont want prints on them as it can blow them...(not cheap)

yep, works a treat. Thanks for your help.

Its quite simple really, but I thought it wasnt that as I couldnt find anything on here that related, as im sure this is what most compliance shops do.

Anyway hopefully this thread help more people with their HID / xenon wiring to reinstall after compliance.

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
