it just means that the ballast is capable of holding those different types of bulb, but what i'm saying is each bulb is different. You must use any of those bulbs listed and nothing else or it won't work. Sorry for previous post that was badly explained aha.

The socket and cable to the ballast should still b there, (socket tucked to the side).

The wiring would have been modified to eliminate the ballast altogether.

Remove halogen bulb, reconnect + & - to ballast, remove globe adapter, fit new HID bulb and you should be back to factory.

Yup looks like the one in the pic.

So all I need is the wiring and globes?

Would these fit?

Thanks

These will not work unless you are using an aftermarket ballast, they will not plug into the factory ballast as they are hard wired.

are you sure they are different? All the ones I've found on ebay say d2r d2s and even d2c!!

Even that says d2r d2s ^

I'm so confuse :(

I believe they both have the same connector which is why this harness says it will suit either, but the D2R bulb has an intergrated reflector to use in low beam applications. the D2S doesn't

Do i actually need to open my headlight units to put in any wires?

Check this out, doesn't look too hard..

You shouldn't need to open the headlight up.

The best way to tackle this problem is by doing some recon work first, and actually looking at what you actually have versus what you don't have.

Jack the car up, take a wheel off, remove the inner rain guard and you will have excellent access to the back of the headlight.

Pop out the top cover(globe) and inspect the setup - is the HID socket still in there and connected (to the ballast), is the ballast still bolted to the bottom of the light.

If these questions are answered with a 'YES', then all you have to do is get power to the ballast, remove the adapter plate for the halogen globe and fit some HID bulbs.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
