Hi guys,

I contacted a headlight manufacture which can make new headlights assembly for us, just wondering how many people would like to have a new one and how much they would pay for a brand new ,clear one.

also can make it chrome inside for s1 owners, and projectors won't be a problem too

Yeah sounds good, always want to get the clear head lights on mine. Only trouble is I have the 4 door assembly and just bought a H4 HID kit, so it wont go in a clear light assembly!! DOOH!!

Haven't put the kit in yet, anyone want to buy an unused H4 HID kit?? :P

But even the 2nd hand ones can be sold for 400 pair as i've sold mine for 300 or 350 a pair?

if the same quality i mean ..

can't compare with the accord or somthing ..i got mine audi one for less then 300 a pair brand new. but no one is making r33's ...

really want to see if it's worth to do it . coz making a model is not cheap..

yeah thats cool, understand its abit $$$.

(i bought some 4dr s1 r33 headlights chrome inside, for around $200 but that was from japan)

I think you will get heaps of orders if you do a S3 GTR copy, i get some photo of the headlights for you

Yes .i can do anyone only if i have sample . not only photo..

i just borrowed a normall r33 one .. but don't think i can get gtr one any where

S3 gtr would be hard to get, and they you would have to change the shape to suit a gtst (as the headlight is wider on the gtr to suit the guards)

They cost around $1,000 too.... thats abit of money to put up front without knowing you will get it back

i went to just jap and paied 100 deposit borrowed a headlight.

and i can make it gtst housing and gtr inside? or easier s2 looking?

if you can make it gtr inside (s3 style above) in gtst housing, i would be down for it 100%, even s2 look in a s1 housing would be good too :P

hehe , i know when people think about chinese stuff will link to cheap and crapy, i admit many chinese stuff are, but just because the quality control and the cost of making them. U pay for wat u get , if u would pay the same price as the japanese stuff . wat i can say is chinese can make even better ones with that price. but normally chinese stuff are much cheaper than others. so they have to control the cost too.

what i'm doing is go to the factory which is making car plastic parts for nissan honda or something..

u know . china has space ship. the third one in the world. i think the quality won't be too bad though...

I would definitely be down for s1 r33 light (s3 gtr style). As for feasibility, just take one look at the " r33 dirty/cloudy headlight ... " threads on this and many other forums and you will see it would be a massive hit. I have a r33 series 1, its repainted, has a bodykit, the rear on a r33 looks good, the front cloudy lights let it down making it look like an old car, the s3 projector style would make it look much more sophisticated.

PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN!

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
