I got T10 42 SMD LED bulbs for my parkers and 8000K Xenon gas HID. Very happy with it. Haven't got myself a high beam kit yet but will be getting another HID for my high beams.

Philips 5000K Diamond Vision - True white, everything appears as if they were in sunlight. may appear slightly yellowish on some angles but its pure white.

HID 8000K - 55W Ballasts and bulbs, disgregard the greenish tint coming from the lights. the camera picks up the green coming from my yellowish lens.

These will make your yellow street signs, car plates or whatever you have yellow in WA, appear green haha. Kinda awesome. But they go great for under $100 on eBay.

Sorry for R33 GTR, I have xenon headlights although im not liking the yellow colour..

Change the bulbs if you already have a HID kit installed. Perhaps you have 5000K xenons. 6000k is white i think and anything beyond that starts to go blue.

HIDs take awhile to warm up, so they're not the best for high beams imo. And I have a feeling ballasts may not like the lights being turned on/off a lot (unless you live in woop and drive with your highbeams everywhere avoiding wildlife?)

Gonna give it a shot and see how long they last. but HID for high beams, sh!t gets real right there.

Hi guy just wanna check if any of you can post up the ebay link for the HID conversion kit. Thinking of changing my R33 halogen bulbs to HID if possible. Just love those white/blue-ish lights.

Is this a right one? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/H1-35W-6000K-AC-Xenon-HID-kit-R33-Skyline-Low-Beam-/270985204866?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f17fa1482#ht_4426wt_1002

ive been doing a shit load of reading..... Everyone who has used the 55w for lowbeam said its way way to bright.

Re your link- They dont come with the ballasts? Seems very pricey for what they are,

so your 33 uses Xenons? when i bought my car i was told it had exenon headlights.... But he also told me the cracked jap snow tyres on the car were, Awsome rubber... So i took everything after that with less then a grain of salt.

What the hell? They obviously come with Ballasts. They are pictured with the Ballasts and it says each kit comes with a Ballast.

Only some GTR's came with Xenons and they should have been removed for compliance.

And I just said I have this kit IN MY HIGH BEAM's. I have 35w in my low beam

This is why I'm suggesting this kit, I have a cheap kit in my low beams and the more expensive kit as linked is much better. You wanted advice and I gave it. If you want to do a Xenon conversion this kit is good

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
