Mate they are actually series 3 xenon lights.

Rare as hens teeth to buy a set and upwards of $2k for a set.

Don't know anyone in Vic but do know they are available from Nissan and sometimes yahoo auction pages in Japan.

What ant said...

Look on yahoo auctions and get them from japan, expect to pay about 2k for a set with everything... Never seen them on a gtst so make sure they will hook up fine - they should.

Or Call nissan for a quote :(

If you have a series 2 r33 then you will need a carbon fiber bonnet or the likes as the GTR lights wont fit.

the headlights wont fit fullstop.

s3 gtr headlights will only fit onto a s1 gts-t and you do not require any gtr panels, you just need to trim the headlights

Man that's crazy, $2000. Cheaper to do a retrofit and probably better too.

You could retro fit some HID bulbs, but they look no where near as good as original Xenons.

Retrofitting never, ever looks as good as OEM Xenons.

$1500 is a good price above, if they come with everything and are in good condition. Be careful tho, he only joined the other day, typical sign of a scammer to join and reply to a WTB ad with a cheap price...

Nah I didn't mean purchasing those cheap HID kits. No way would I recommend doing that. I meant doing a full retrofit. Same as what ronin did to his headlights. New projectors and globes from a honda euro for example.

Ahh good.... but the problem is the R33 headlights aren't projector style (except for the Xenons).... where as the R32 headlights are projector style.... So it's never going to look right on an R33 doing a retrofit...

soooo i guess i should kiss this mod goodbye?

not even if i get a GTR bonnet, fenders and front bar?

if you have a s1 gts-t, the headlights will bolt straight on all you need to do is trim the headlights (as i shown in that photo) you do not need to change your front bar, bonnet or fenders

They don't look too bad in my opinion.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
