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!

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
