From your second picture, seems like your passenger (left) side needs to go down, and your driver side (right) needs to move to the left.

But you really need to find a level ground with a wall.

Thanks NiZmo Man!

Any updates on this for the R32 Projectors?

niZmO_Man.... is the Mini D2S 4.0 still the one to go for?

I'm looking for something that will be relatively easy to fit (don't mind a little dremel work) and stealth as HID in NZ is a WOF fail.....

 

do elaborate the procedure >_< when you get a chance

Diode on the high beam wire, so the current flows to the solenoid when you hit the highs.

The high beam bulbs on my car have a separate relay wiring, so I use the standard wires for activating the solenoid.

I didn't take pictures of my dodgy wiring, but I'll make a neater harness so will take pictures then.

In the mean time, Morimoto D2S 3.0 projector with Osram CBI bulb, did a quick retro:

Try getting that with a H1 LED bulb :P

So, I have a set of projector headlights that I intend on retrofitting and then performing a transplant for the N1s.

I have read through a lot of posts about HID conversions and some date back a few years. Is the best option the latest Mini D2S and stick to 35w / 4200k? I.e. no point in going above 35w and I am not interested in bright white / blue headlights.

Looking at Lightwerkz, it seems like you can buy the brackets as mentioned above:

Then build your own kit:

Not sure why Lightwerkz didn't list it anymore, but they used to let you select D2S or G5 projector to go with their R32 bracket.  G5 is cheaper and has identical dimensions to D2S, except the housing isn't painted black.  D2S has a more centralized hot spot and G5 is more spread out, you can check it out on their comparison videos.

Thanks @TXSquirrel I will check it out.

BTW, it does mention G5 at the bottom of the page:

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
