Its hard to say exactly what your problem is. If its just a simple globe. You need a DSR H1 Xenon HID Globes.

Im selling my old 4300k pair for $80 if your interested.

If its not the globe, eg the ballast or anything else. then it could be alot more $$$ and complicated to fix.

I remember asking about Xenon bulbs and finding out technically they are illegal in vic; well in skylines anyway. Pompous and expensive bmw's and mercs are a different story apparantly. When i got mine I found I have standard $30 Halogen bulbs in my 34. When it went through the import process they took the xenon's out.

^^ his right

Ita because skylines don't have auto levelling lights. VicRoads says this has the potential to blind ppl while you drive because they are so bright.

Regardless it's an expensive price of gear, costing ppl around$1500 to replace.

Like this guy I had my bulbs and ballists removed during compliance. I ddint do my research and regretted dearly. The horrible halogens they replace them with are disgusting and are absolutely useless. And aftermarket HIDs ain't that much better.

My advice for ppl out there about to go through compliance, talk to the guys off the record about negotiating the OEM Xenons back into the car after being compiled.

that sucks they come stock xenon lights so should be legal

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
