I've recently spoken to a supplier who can get us a really good price on headlight globes.

I've used the PIAA globes, and although they look blue, they are not very bright (the bluer, the less light).

These globes that i've found are 4200 k globes, which is a perfect white. Not yellow at all. These are very bright. When compared to plain old globes, the 55 watt seems to be twice as bright, and much nicer. the 100 watt is crazy bright, and i have not had any problems with heat.

The BEST part is the price:

The 55 watt H1 is only $35!

100 watt H1 is $45.

The brand is a generic brand, but for that price, you can't go wrong. I've been using them for about 5 months, and they're still going bright and white. For the price of PIAA(which is not as bright), you can buy 4 sets of the 55w or 3 of the 100.

PM me if interested. This price is available for sydney people who are close by for pic up. Or for interstate provided there are enough to make it worth postage. Or unless if you want to pay post.

Note, supplier is doing these at near cost price.

Hi MANWHOR3

Nice name btw. :wassup:

Like I said, I'm not the one selling them. I have just happened to find a supplier willing to do them near cost price. I was told that the extra is really only for his cost to go get them and the fact that he has to buy them in boxes of 50 pairs.

I don't have any pics atm, but will try to get some tomorrow (my car is stuck at a carpark after some @#$#@%^ at the carpark decided to let my tyres down) :)

You're welcome to come have a look if you want.

Wow, how lucky is that how we're on the forumns at the same time. I guess it's pretty addictive.

You know what, like you said, you can't go wrong for that price. I'd like to get a set or possibly two today. I was hoping that maybe i could come see it, then i'll drive us down to the supplier, if it is at all possible.

I'm dying for a new set of globes. Yellow is so yuck, and not bright at all.

I've sent this to you by pm too.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
