Re: How to change Oil

One thing they forgot to mention is to fill the new filter about half way up with the new oil before screwing it back on. It's actually not necessary. I did it too for my other cars with filters that mounted top side up, but the general consensus is that it's not necessary. Given that our cars are ...

Re: My Kizashi! Catback exhaust, LED's, HID's & RRM SRI so f

No, these will not work. The position bulbs are T10 bulbs. Google/ebay "T10 LED bulbs" to get a sense of the bulbs. Also, I strongly suggest you check out my write-up. Also, a warning: If you buy cheap LED bulbs, they will most likely A) not be bright and B) fail in a short amount of time....

Re: My Kizashi! Catback exhaust, LED's, HID's & RRM SRI so f

It is apparently the position bulb. I've always called it the Daytime Running Light. Online I found LED's for the bulb, but being called Auxillery lighting. So that should cover my problem. Thanks for you're help. Great to clear that up. I did a write up on changing the position bulb if you want to...

Re: Buying EU/AU parts from outside the country

i have 5000k in mine and i love the way it looks... if i keep this car i will be getting a retro fit done to the headlights. I would love to see a comparison of a retrofit vs. a normal projector housing. I know people have retrofitted headlights using Audi parts in other cars, but compatibility see...

Re: My Kizashi! Catback exhaust, LED's, HID's & RRM SRI so f

Still a little too ambiguous as I was talking about the "other side" the first time. Let's eliminate ambiguity and use the reference below. 1) Position Bulb 2) High beam/DRL (same bulb used) 3) Low beam inside projector housing 4) Turn signal bulb 5) Fender-mounted side turn signal bulb 6)...

Re: Buying EU/AU parts from outside the country

Curious, what car did you have with factory HIDs that you did not think was better than halogen? All cars I have seen with factory HIDs (BMW, Merc, Audi, Infiniti, etc.) seem to output much better light, even compared to aftermarket HID kits. Even if the light output is the same, the HID housing of ...

Re: Ideas for Wheels???

I personally love the look of gunmetal wheels. A dark metallic grey.
On a black car, I think they will look pretty epic.
I also have a black Kizashi, but I am fine with the factory 18's. For factory wheels, I think they are very nice and much better than the alloys from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, etc.

Re: Buying EU/AU parts from outside the country

Live with the halogens and just buy better bulbs eg. Osram Nightbreaker. Proper HID lights also have the headlight washers and a self leveling mechanism built into them- to stop them dazzling other drivers. The internal optics of a proper HID light are also different to a halogen. There's nothing w...

Re: MY13 Brochure finally on Suzuki Aust Site

I could imagine that, but are they a film over the lens or an actual cover? The photo does not show much. Any of you Aussies have this?

Re: My Kizashi! Catback exhaust, LED's, HID's & RRM SRI so f

I'm talking about the stock orange light that is placed all the way at the corner of the lens. I don't really mind the position lighting. That's the turn signal bulb. Changing that color is pointless in my opinion and is actually illegal. Those don't illuminate unless the blinker or hazards are on ...
