What Is The Best Hid/led,parker Lights,number Plate,and Both Low Beam And High Beam?


Recommended Posts

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

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
