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)

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
