I think your best option is to do a retrofit. You would need a pair of projectors, pair of ballast and a pair of HID globes. People usually go for the largest projector they can fit in the housing. I would say your best to visit hidplanet.com for more information.

Doing a retrofit of some sort on your headlights will be illegal, but I highly doubt a police officer will defect you for them. Retrofits don't usually glare too much if you're using good quality lens and globes.

The 'normal' projectors are usually only low beam where as bi-xenon are high and low beam in the one projector.

And yeah, try to get your hands on some honda euro projectors and get some genuine philip branded ballasts and globes.

I'm not too sure, but I think it was 2.5" or 3". Best to go hidplanet.com. They use these projectors quite a lot. The american name for them would be 'tsx' projectors or 'tl'. One of them is bi-xenon and the other is just low beam. Shouldn't be too hard to find out which one it is.

They're called 'tl' projectors. Just do a quick search on hidplanet.com and it should give you a pinned thread of the sizes of common projectors used. S2000 projectors, BMW projectors etc.

just lens dimension? or full braket?

the seller gave me this:

Honda S2000

Height: 105.60mm

Diameter = 71.70mm

Width Trimmed from the stock bracket= 113.50mm

Length = 135.30mm

Length(seat of the lens to mounting holes) = 41.40mm

Length(mounting holes to end of bulb) = 93.90mm

cheers

Yeah, sorry, I meant search on the hidplanet.com forum.

The main thing would be to get a lens which would still fit in the stock headlight housing. And for the brakets, I'm not too sure mate. :thumbsup: Best to do some research on the hidplanet.com forum. See what others are doing and apply your knowledge. :rolleyes:

I think there should also be a write up on how to retrofit hids into the r32 headlight. I'll try and find the thread for you. It's on sau somewhere.

Nah I don't mate. I haven't heard of anyone in Aus being able to do it (as a job). I think it's best to do it yourself. Try reading on hidplanet.com forum a bit more to see if you can work it out. From what I've seen on that site, you'll be pretty satisfied with the outcome.

I want to do a retrofit one day, just not on the skyline.

Goodluck with it though mate.

No worries.

I see you're after a set of genuine hid lamps now. I think someone said it was about $800 for a set off yahooauctions. I think it'll be best to attack the compliance people who took them out in the first place. :P

They'll be in Aussie somewhere. If you bought your car from a import car dealer, chances are they took them out. Not too sure if you'll be able to get the lights off them though, but good luck.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
