that price is killer, cool upgrade though!
The output is better than 03-05, I had 8000k bulbs on to the 03s and hell no they never looked like these. These arent as blue as my 8000k, but they are perfect.

Thats correct, but I also had to adjust something else =), so the bumper came off.

The only mod. I did to my 06 units was Piaa Cobalt 6600's, a little pricey but still amazingly bright.

What is the diferent between Xenon and HID? I know that Xenon refers to the gas in the bulb and HID refers to the system, but I thought that the Z33 (03-05) came standard with HID low beams. I guess what I'm asking is does the stock Z33 come with lighting ballasts? And mostly... Can I put this kit on my car? (It says it wont work with HID Z33s)

The Z33 comes with an HID system, people refering to XENON is the same as refeting to HID (Hight Intensity Discharge). The HID bulbs have a small XENON GAS capsule, which is ignited and creates that nice white or blueish light depending on its teperature.

If your current 03/05 Z has fact. xenon's/HID, then yes the 06's will work.

The 06s work on either FACTORY HID 350Z's or NON OEM HID ones too, the plug for the headlight is the same. Will work on all Z33s

Do you drive around with no air filter on the turbo? Arent you worried about sucking things into the turbo?? Go JDM and put some window screen over it, tha'd be hot. That intercooler is sick I'd buy that if Ya didnt have to ruin the front brace.
