Hey guys,

So since i bought my 34, iv noticed that my headlights are angled too high, and when driving behind someone that is about 10 metres in front of me, it looks like i am blinding them! (and i dont even have HID's yet!)

iv tried playing around with the adjuster near the drivers side, but im pretty sure thats broken.

Iv heard that is a screw near the headlight itself where it can be adjusted, but i cant seem to find it

can anyone help me out with this, and if possible, post up some pictures

thanks!

Have a look in the DIY section, some guy has a tutorial on installing HID's to his R34 headlights, on one of the pic, it shows the little adjustment screw.

i had a look in the DIY, and dont think i found it.

can someone link me to it, or please try help somehow!

That's the one lol, didn't think it was too hard to find...

Most cars have an adjuster. looks like a little cog that you can lever slowly with a flat blade screw driver. I did a 370z on the weekend only I adjusted them up not down. Park 1 meter away from a white wall, put the lights on and adjust. 10mm of adjustment of the beam on the wall will give you about 5-10m on the ground (most cars vary)

white cog if you look at the bonnet catch look left or right and you will see it just behind the light it may have a screw type bolt going to it for easy adjustment or it wont if not go upto a wall close and turn it you will see wat it does then go back like old mate said befor and adjust it right for you

    • I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.
    • Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.
    • Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right  
    • Uhhh if anyone sees this - I bought a BRZ years ago, on my fulls soon so back on the market for the R34!
