hey all,

i want to change my headlights... the reason being is because the inside of my lights are just silver and loooks plain but ive noticed the gtt'z or the gtr and even some gt'z have the head lights where the inside is black and looks insane!!!! twice as good as the plain ones....

i live in melbourne and i would love to know what would be the best way to get my hands on them and what price i would be looking at.

Any One Got Any Idea???????

:D

Do you have any pictures you can post to show the difference between the two? I never realised there were two different lights.

there the head lights i want.... see how the inside is black

wif mine i cant explain it just looks like normal clear head lights...

Oh okay, I see it now. I've always been looking at GTR's and just got used to the look of them. Never realised the 'other' ones existed until I actually went out and searched for pictures of them. The GTR ones sure do look better.

Wouldn't have a clue where to get them from though.

cheers any way mate

just paint them. Put them in the oven for about 5 mins to melt the glue, then pull the headlights away. Then paint the part that you want painted, put them back into the oven to melt the glue again, and push it back together. Be very careful not to break them tho, they are quite fragile.

I found that the best way to open a headlight is by using a heat gun, not the oven. Not sure how big your oven is, but when we tried to open a headlight up, one side of the headlight melted. I just find using a heat gun be the safer option, but slower.

yeh id be a bit unsure bout putting them in the oven lol, might melt the other plastic bit on the headlights if you dont get it just right or at the right temp, might be ok if you stuck em in a low temp an always checked them

best place is Nissan.. However you mat want to ask MrZac to order you some from Japan Yahoo Auctions at a lower used price.. New retail for $1200 for HID .. for some reason i believe thats each.

Sooo, two options GTT or GTR lights, GTR lights are cool, instead of the parker being rounded its actually flat and covers that whole section! bad side is it looks crap on the GTT unless your doing a full GTR conversion (its an excuse you know you want too!! but its hard!)

Anyways there u go.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
