if you have the base model, you will need to change the lighting system, not just the bulbs.

You need to purchase the whole HID system. It will have 2 HID bulbs, 2 ballast and some little mounting hardware i believe.
They will run you around USD $300-600 depends on the brand and quality.
Also one more little tip, while you are at it installing the HID, you may also want to raise the projector beam cuz it was pointing way to low.

No Aussie Z's have xenons

our design rules say xenons must be self leveling AND have headlight washers

ive put a xenondepot 6500K hid kit in my Ann, and the cut-off/rainbow effect is very similar to factory hids (also dependant on the quality of the globes used). However the halogen beam pattern is set quite wide from factory, and this dilutes the amount of light in front of the car, the reason the halogens are so poor - there simply isnt enough 'power' in a halogen globe to cover a light spread that large. I went for a 6500K which on the Z's psuedo reflector/projector lense gives a white light with a purple tinge. On my last car with a reflector headlight, there was more light at the front of the car, a more purple light, but didnt spread as wide

im going to try putting in some 4300K globes over the next couple weeks. If the light color doesnt look too yellow, ill happily trade the purple effect for more output
