      AFAIK any aftermarket hid kit will work in the R33 as long as you buy the right lightbulb size. I think the R33 is a 9006 (?). You will need to drill a small hole in the back of the stock bulb cap to run the hid wires out to the ballast. Pretty simple, and all kits come with a rubber gasket to make it look clean after install.

      The oem projectors will aim the lights towards oncoming traffic though, so expect a lot of highbeam flashes your way

      What kills me is how cheap hid kits are these days. I've seen kits sell for $60. Back in the day when they were new to the market and everyone were using replacement drop in blue PIAA halogen bulbs to replicate the "look" of hids, I bought a Raybrig kit for $1200 at Super AutoBacs (FML).

              your probably right about the bulbs, i cant remember and if im wrong than it means im mixing them up with a previous car of mine
              I love the thing and its worth it every time I start it. As soon as it stops make me smile ill get rid of it (not gonna happen)

                Stock R33 lamps are H1's. Exactly what I used in my 33.

                      I have the DDM tuning 6000k 55w kit on my R33. It's ridiculously bright. Lights up all the signs for about half a mile down the road. I can get pics once I'm done installing my turbos.
