Retrofit HID projectors, or i think you can move the globe deeper into the reflector.

And what do you mean by its spread out, but like having high beams on? High beams make the beam narrower and longer, not more spread out...

I run HID's and have not had any issues with the light spread. Similar to the stock halogens just brighter. I adjusted the aim of the headlight to dip a little bit lower than stock via the screw on the back of the headlight.

Think he means glare. There's no longer a cut off line.

To fix this problem, you need to reinstall the halogen globes. Your headlights were never designed to take HID globes.

Retro fitting projectors from Euros provide awesome results from what i have seen on the net. I have just fitted some 8000k Xenon's in my R34 a few weeks ago, i'm happy with the result, i mean it's not as great as the light/dark cutoff line you get with euro projectors. But it is a huge upgrade over Halogens.

ah okay, mind pointing me in the right direction as to who can supply me these?

Decent projectors are hard to be found at a good price in Australia. Best to buy a set from overseas and convert them to suit Australian roads if possible. All that's need to be done to the projector is modify the shield. There's a few sites explaining how to do this.

For more information about retrofitting projectors which were designed to take HID globes, head over to HID planet. Have a read.

      My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.

      I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
