All you have to do is trim the tabs off the side of your headlight plug and they will bolt straight up to your series one.

Cheers,

Hi Johno,Thanks for the reply ,what about the ballasts, are they already in a series 1 or not,are there any other changes to make??Cheers GREYPEARL.

no probs mate, the ballasts are part of the xenon s3 headlights.. they should be bolted to the bottom.. no other changes are needed.

Thanks Johno, I was just worried about the extra load on the wiring having the more powerful current draw,now I've just got to find some good ones,what are my chances do you think??

Not sure of the price for second hand ones but if you are wondering what a pair goes for brand new expect to pay $3700 from Nissan or $3300 from Kudos Motorsports.

Hey Johno,I just read in a thread about xenons that the series 3 lights don't have a bracket that attaches to the grill like the series1 do,is this right as another poster told me all that's different is the connector tab which you just trim off??Cheers GREYPEARL.

Anyone know the answer to this??GREYPEARL.

Series III will fit series I and series II but series I won't fit series III because of the said bracket. Your series one dont have the bracket for the grill. As said above you just cut the plastic bit and you fit on to your series I. Balasts are with the lights, bolted under them. Don't worry about extra load on your wirring, you will have less because they are only 35 Watt, your Hals should be 55 w.

Your biggest proble is finding a set , not many series III cars around and all series I and II owners want them that means very expensive!!!

If you found a set in Japan it will cost you up to $2000 by the time you brought them here.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
