I'm in two minds about whether these will look any good on a white BNR32.

I'm appealing to your advice.

Possible Pros

* Japanese made

* Eliminates the orange contrast > cleaner look from a distance

Possible Cons

* Tacky looking

* Lens is not ribbed like the headlight lens > misfit, up close and personal

Thoughts?

depends if you want the authentic look Tez

any pics in the white 32 thread with clears to compare?

I run those clears ^ on my R32GTR (modernizes) :)

I do have a set of brand new smoked Dspeeds with the ribs in the lens that I'd let go to you for half price.

They look better with the N1 headlights over the projector type.

You could also go the clear dspeeds with ribs ($400+) RHDjapan

Thanks for feedback Richard. Those smoked Dspeeds with the ribbing sound good! (Sounds like smoked ribs huh?)

I'd always keep the original amber lenses for authenticity (wow 5 syllables).

Still weighing up...

Well from another R32 owning Richard: No. Just no.

The JJR clear ones come with the black surround. Unlike the Japanese ones from RHD in your first post.

Dspeeds also come with the silver surround but easy to paint black

Here are the smoked JJR and Dspeeds to compare (bad pic but you get the idea)

Note* the JJR set have a more solid tab for the screw at the top than Dspeeds (so be careful when installing not to snap off)

and a close up of the dpseed clears

i was gonna post that pic of my car to show how the clear dspeeds look, guess you guys beat me to it LOL

Personally the only set I would ever run are the ones above, the match up with the stock head lights perfectly and almost looks oem.

DSpeeds look the best then I'm thinking.

Many thanks Richard, Anthony and Ravi.

      You will need custom pistons made, the combustion chamber is to modified for any off the shelf piston to give a good compression ratio

      Which is a thing done by no-one ever. Not even remotely a good idea. I would run an engine with 10:1 these days. Good management and fuel compared to the early 90s when these boat motors were designed & built.

      I think you misunderstand. This was Greg driving from Melb to Syd (or return) at a constant 100km/h on the highway. Very little throttle movement, very little accel/decel. You should be able to get 8.5 l/100km under those circumstances (which is effectively what he reports - 50L for 600km is 8.3 l/100km). I drive my car to & from work every day, in traffic, on a mixture of 50, 60, 90 km/h roads (and therefore at up to 110km/h!!) with traffic lights and freeway sections. 28 km each way, so about a 30-40 minute drive depending on day, direction and traffic (which is enough for the majority of the drive to be "fully warmed up". I typically get flat 10 l/100km every single week. OK, maybe 10-10.5, every single tank of fuel. RB25DET Neo. It is easy to get acceptable economy. I won't say "good" economy, because modern cars are doing 5-6 l/100km in the same conditions.

      Superpro are fine. There are some applications (R32 FUCAs for example) where they are no damn good, but typically for any normal suspension bush, they are fine. Some people will complain of them making noise. Some people will complain of them collapsing. But many of those can probably be traced back to not properly lubing at install or other installation problems, or possibly other problems elsewhere in the suspension that put additional load into particular bush. And for the legit complaints? Meh. Deal with it. I had to replace the poly bushes in my R32 FUCAs every year. The real issue is that I am sold on the idea of adjustability of at least upper arms. So I only have spots for poly bushes in lower arms these days, as everything else is either hardened rubber or spherical steel.

      Suspension really is complicated.... All these considerations are making me over think it all. Again. I reckon I'll wait for SK's response on his coilovers, and go from there. Though if I go MCA, I'll have to decide on whether the extra $600 (voston comforts $1890, mca pro comfort is $2490) is worth it. Just something soft and comfy, yet firm enough when required at the track or a casual old pac drive for a pie... Otherwise, anyone have experience with SuperPro bushings? Needing to replace the bushings on the suspension department... Will probably keep the oem uppercontrol arms etc, and just replace the bushings.
