i just want to clarify that my coupe has D2S D2R Xenon HID 8000K bulbs already, and what ever the factory high beams are. do i need any other bulbs to make this work?

Nope, you should be all good.

manc01 - I am quite you are NOT going to find any D2S HIDs in stock at any store in Adelaide (which is why I told you about buying them on Ebay on Monday).

And as per my PM, any H4 will do the job - you just need to decide on what quality you want. but be prepared ot be raped if you buy retail vs buying online.

D2S is different to DSR... D2S is projector, D2R is reflector, D2C is the only one that can be used for both

Nissan charges $240+GST EACH Bulb so buy from that ebay link i posted, the guy is so helpful if you want to know "what Phillips do i buy"

D2S 85122CX

D2S 85122CM

D2S 85122

D2S 85122+

D2S 85122WX

Read between the lines : "D2S is projector, D2R is reflector" - you need to figure out whether your glones are S or R. If they are S then that is what you want, if they are R they will still work, but the pattern will not be optimal for the new projector style lens.

Got mine also. They come in a very big box! I have only opened one but it looks like is has a bulb in the high beam???

Yes its a H1 bulb. you can get the 100% more vision one from philips if your not happy with that one.. only $43 from ebay.

YAY! Keith and I got ours today! Super rapped to fob off my RHS headlight! Thanks to everyone's input and patience and to Keith for organising it on my behalf! :)

Has someone installed them yet? I wonder what to do with the small box attached to the wires, tape it to the headlights when I install it? I know how to install the headlights, but I might need some advice assistance with the HID ballast and harness.

Id like to note thats just on parks and my flash make it look like my light is on. These were a direct plug and play for me, will put a hid kit on it eventually but for now the halogens are fine.

Anyone bought these? I think it's a just a simple halo ring add-on, looks good

There is an extensive thread about these somewhere in the V35 section. Bit of a PITA job to fit including baking your lights to break the seals and open them, much stuffing around to fit the halos (including having to silicone them in = dodgy imho) and horror stories about the place on the net of people baking their lights too long and ruining them, not baking them long enough and damaging the seals when opening them, and the halos falling out of place or not being siliconed in perfectly straight and looking like shite. Not something I am game to do TBH - hence why I bought the aftermarket lights with all of the guesswork taken out. Plus it is fully/easily reversible to switch the lights back if you want later on.

Are you free Saturday morning/lunchtime to help/watch/drink while we fit the headlights to 5 x V35s Matt? Munro might pop around in his R35GTR for a look/help/drink too. It is getting some new toys fitted as we speak and will be making mid-400 awkws by the weekend :)

hey Damian, are your low beam bulbs D2S or D2R?

I haven't got mine fittet yet but my V35 is a series 1 with D2R bulbs and I'm a bit concern if they would fit ok in the projector lens of the new headlights.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
