Hey,I'm just wondering if anyone can help me or list all the bulbs that the 1998 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T uses ?

Because it doesn't tells me in the owner's manual ?

Thanks

Okay,thanks guys.I see that T10 wedge is the same as W5W ?

And if I want to install both the low and high beam HID kit,does that means I really have to uses 4 ballasts because there 4 different bulbs ?

Does it use W5W aswell ?

Thanks

Yes you would have to use 4 ballasts, one for each globe, not sure about the W5W globes, T10's are easy enough to come by

You would need 4 ballasts for four bulbs.

It's generally not recommended to have HID on your highbeam (I believe it's because they take time to warm up, so flashing them doesn't work very well, and you typically turn highbeam on/off more, which is bad for the life of the bulb/ballast).

What's wrong with just a standard decent bulb in the highbeams? If they're HB3 connector highbeams as they are on mine, you could consider fitting HIR bulbs maybe? That would be a decent compromise in my opinion.

One more things,a couple weeks ago I had Autosparks to install my HID kit.

When it's done,I noticed that all the wiring is completely different,now with rubber thingy,different cable and etc.

But I noticed the right headlight wire that connects to the end of the bulbs is loose.Sometimes the right headlight would turn on,but then if I go through speed bumps or bumpy roads,

the next time I turn it on,it wouldn't light sup,do you have any idea to fix it ?

Or should I just go back to the workshop who changed all my wiring and things ?

Because it wasn't like this before they changed it.

Number plate illumination(X1) - T10 501 capless or W5W

Side indicators - T10 501 capless or W5W

Interior map lights(X2) - 9mm bayonet(BA9S)

Middle interior light(X1) - 31mm festoon

Boot light - T10 501 capless or W5W

Rear outer sidelights and brake lights - T20 capless dual filament.

Rear indicators - T20 capless

Reversing lights - 912, T15 capless with 9mm base. Or you can use any bulb with T10 W5W base(IE 6/9 LED bulbs)

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.

      And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.

      No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
