Hey Guys,

I was just wondering wat HID should i be using for my HI BEAM

H? ????K ??W (the brighter the better!!)

I currently purchased a V35 not to long ago and it came with HID's already

but where i live has no street lights and alot of kangaroos and rabbits,

so when i turn on the hi beams it does work but u cant even see the difference

as the low beams a just so bright...

Guys i need some help quick before i hit a kangaroo and write off my baby!!!

Had a few too close for comfort encounters already.....

Hi Aaron, there is already a tread about V35 HID.

Have a read and maybe it might help your question. High beams in stock headlights are pretty ok at night. Just have to drive abit careful around that area, I think.

Good luck.

That only helps half...or maybe a little of his question.

if 2003-04 models all i know is main lights are H1 fogs are H4. stick with 6000k or less as higher K will emit less light. the high beams works from the H1s so make sure you get a genuine phillips bulb or equivalent so that the main and high beams are both bright.

reason being as before i spent only $200 on my H1 HID from ebay and ending up with 6000k but the high beam was yellow...fail.

Adding a 6000 k hi beam wud def make a difference however id prob go around 5000k. As u actually get more light.

With the wheels 20s r fine. Xtc has 20s and also one or 2 oders dat ul c at the cruise have 20s. my 20s are arriving shortly as well. However that offset of +35f and +40R is not wat u shud get IMO . try going more towards the +20-22 mark or bit lower front and rear . Otherwise they wont sit very flush and wont look guud.Also u have to consider the diameter of the wheels. Il explain this to u at the cruise iv made the same mistake as u wid my wheels and have learned by dat mistake :P

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
