They should be located at the rear of your headlight. There should be two if I remember correctly. One to go left to right and the other to go up and down.

is it just behind the headlight? as in it is visible??

which one exactly is it?

pics would help a lot a lot...

i'm not going to drive out until i dim the lights.

Are they the projector style headlights?

Or non-projector style?

If they are projector style, you will have to try and make shrouds to aim the beam lower or cutoff half the beam(www.hidplanet.com/forums) but it'll still look quite crappy

If tehy are non projector, get rid of them, they can't be used safely in your lights, you'll be blinding every car, cat, dog, cow, kangaroo and koala on the road :D

If you have a later model R33 GTR with Xenon lights standard though, the bulbs should be already aligned?

R32 R33 R34 shouldnt be too different.

as far as i know R32 one is black bolt or hexagon look and R34 is white bolt or hexagon shape.

when you pot the bonnet up, just stand on side of your front wheel and look down at back of the head light unit

you know how to change lo beam? the adjuster is just above the lo beam cover. you dont have to duct down to look or put your hands inside the bonnet to feel. its visible from outside.

mine is R34 but i assume R33 should be same as R32 was very similar with R34.

but r34 doesnt have side way adjuster. only up and down.

hope you go through

cheers

hexagon bolt that looks like a nail head with a plus on the end for phillips head screw driver

the stick out of the back of the headlight and there is one or two that face towards the sky from the top of the headlight

bit off topic

where can you find projector lens to do a retro fit?

can you just get the project lens itself without the socket? and mate that to the r33 socket?

can you get any old project lens that has a line in the middle or does it have to be xenon hid projector?

Ebay :) or www.hidplanet.com/forums/

basically look for any projector HID lenses, usually from BMWs, Porsches, mercs, some nissans(350z, Murano)

Then measure your headlight size, i went for a Murano one because it's 2.5" lense would fit inside my light(R32)

    • 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 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
