    Yellow light is definitely better for rain.

    And for the record, despite the exorbitant prices, I'm yet to see an LED headlight (not even the $400 kits with gigantic heatsinks that make them impossible to fit in most headlights anyway) kit that is anywhere near as bright at a $40 HID kit or even standard halogen bulbs. I'll very happily hear from you if you have found one...

    Everything I have read says aftermarket LED headlights aren't worth buying yet until more effective heatsinks are developed as the heat kills them pretty quick...

    Second that. Still havnt found an oil pump for the z18 yet. Autovaux might be my only option. Same with engine bearings etc.

    Also pistons are on their way. Factory from holden obsolite parts. Only catch is they are .5mm oversized. It will bump capacity from 1796cc to 1818cc. Cany see that being much of a problem.
