Hey all.

I want to get some Deep bright blue Headlights for my nissan skyline R33. I want parkers, low beam and high beam,

I tried the repco ones " Ultra Blue".

But no luck, they aren't as blue as i want them,

And yes i know Blue is illegal,

Does anyone know where i can buy these from? Any Help would be great

Thank you

I was waiting for someone to say that, Lol,

To be honest, i just like them, like the look of blue and the view they give you

it's also good how they glare into the eyes of oncoming driver NOT!!!!!

hence why they are illegal

Also you many have a problems using 8000K + i have seen peoples headlights melt because they are such a hot light.

Skylines healights are only plastic not glass or of high quality plastics like Merc and such. i know 6000k is safe but 8000k is a pretty hot light and they can melt the plastic in the headlight if your not careful with the Kelvin rating you pick.

Thanks for letting me know

all over ebay

eg; http://cgi.ebay.com.au/H1-8000K-HID-Philip...=item2ea92be28f

get ready to be pulled over and defected though. also, dont drive anywhere it's too dark, coz you wont be able to see shit.

+1. i've driven a skyline that had really blue lights as the high beams. it was terrible. while they lit up a decent distance, trying to actually make anything out was hard. low beams were actually better for seeing off into the distance than the highbeams were.

once you go above 4000k in a conventional bulb you start losing light.

my advice is to stop being a ricer and get lights that allow you to actually see where you are going

Kelvin rating has nothing to do with heat. You have no idea what you are on about.

    • 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
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
