Hey guys, ok I have an interesting question for you all...

So I wanted to change the head light bulbs in my car to something a bit whiter ( the current ones are very warm/yellow). So I looked inside the engine bay and i see this IMG_20161211_182840.jpg .. so D2R, HB4 and W5W bulbs is what it says..

So I buy some led W5W and some new D2R in 5000k...

I go to fit them... And there is no HID.. there is HB4 and W5W.. Where the D2R is there is H1... What the hell? View attachment 1

Am i missing something? The fog lights are not HID right?

I been doing some research... Seems that when they import the cars to Australia they have to remove it and refit another type.. doesn't meet Australian car rules (which is stupid)...

For new cars that is, refitting HID into halogen still not allowed.....

Yeah it's the same here.. New cars have led.. it because it's older car.. and can't refit HID legally

Here's a video of an old Super GT event featured on Hot Version. Orido and Wakisaka explains the fun and dangers of racing, the thrills of battling each other and how much a weight ballast affects the car ranking. An awesome video, where great cars such as the Supra and NSX was still alive. Gotta miss this one!
