I am pretty sure they are dual filament. The look like the same ones in the eBay link for high beams posted above.

I have also got my HID cables from a member in here for $35 inc shipping. He also has ballasts for Dog with Bone $70. I should have them on Wed.

'Cider time' if you can assist us again! I was wondering if it would be better to install them at night to be able to adjust the angle of the beam?

Can't wait to fit them! Wish I had not seen the 2006 rear Tailights in the weekend. Now I want a pair of them! Any idea where I could find them?

Rear 06 lights from perry-infiniti

install light during day so u can see what your doing... all you need is a screw driver and you can adjust level when they are in the car.

Pretty sure no H1 is dual filament

I also need the HID cables, able to find another pair for me? :)

Sounds like the coupe lights have been more of a hastle than my sedan's ones... Mine literally plugged straight in.

Nah, not really... Just depends on compliance, the others and myself had ours hacked and taken out. That's why we gotta get other parts for it to work. Just wished compliance didn't touch my car and left everything as it is...

Has anyone tried adjusting the aim of their low beams in the new headlights? I supposed it's the top adjuster on the inner side of the housing (closer to engine) right? I tried turning it in both directions but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

Got my HID cable so I am ready to go. Just not sure about a couple of options from the install. I also got some 2006 taillights (I wish I had not seen them on the weekend!). If anyone needs a set of mint 2004 taillights PM me.

Andrew is there a chance of us getting together over this weekend or next to do the other cars? I am confident of putting them in but not adjusting them or various wiring options. Can bring cider ;-)

I didn't fit a halogen in a hid socket, the sedan version of these aftermarket units came fully halogen equipped bulbs and all, just gotta adjust my high beams other than that completely plug and play :)

Sedan headlights are complete aftermarket, so the low beam globes are H7- not the factory D2R type.

The coupe' lights are either a modified OEM headlight or more than likely a copy of the factory ones, hence the retention of the factory HID setup.

I haven't been following, so what's the reason for adjusting the beam? I thought this was a JDM right hand side driving headlights and it was set already?

If yours levels up ok then you don't have to adjust anything. You should check the aim against a flat wall to make sure both sides are even and at the correct level. On mine the right side is lower than the left so I want to raise the right side to be even with the left.

Mine shines down way too far on the ground .... this results in oncoming cars seeing a reflection of the projector light beam on the actual chrome housing of the light below the projector = dazzlingly bright for oncoming cars.

Eh..I thought it was normal for it to be lower a bit on the right..just to ensure that it doesn't blind oncoming cars.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
