Lighting
I have been researching for a long time as to the best way to improve the lighting on the FD. I have been considering retrofiting HID H4 Dual beams for quite some time...but I am wondering if it is worth the money. Anyhow I stumbled across this

If anything, read about the 350Z and the Nissan Micra - impressive

Cool link. However a good, quick and easy improvement to the FD's headlights is to switch to SYLVANIA Silverstar lamps. I did and was impressed with the difference.
