R31 Projector Headlights

[foo]

Does anyone know which R31 had the projector headlights? It looks like the Jap HR31 had both the square ones and projector lamps but I can't track down on which model the projector ones were available.

I think the projectors were a factory option. you can get regular (non-projector) slant nose headlights as well.

Actually your post raises another good question: was the squared-off "feral" front an option, and who in their right mind would choose it over the slant nose front?

Squared front was standard on the series 1 passage.

From what I can tell projectors were standard on series 2 coupes (late 87 onwards) and a standard on RB20DET passages and a factory option on the rest of the passage range.

Hmm, could well make sense.

A friend of mine has a 1986 HR31 GTS-X, with projector front and Passage-style indented stovetop rears (not the covered ones you usually see). But from looking on Yahoo Japan auctions there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to which years R31s came with what style of front/headlight/taillight, it's all over the show

there was even a coupe with a feral front on there last I looked!

the projectors are an import only headlight

the came on the imports from 1988 i believe or 87.

they are the same shape as the aus series 3 which is the slant one you must be talking about, the square shape you are talking abou tis the australian standard front from series one and series 2 skylines

best bet is to check r31skylineclub.com

members sell sets of these lights every now and again, be patient and you should be able to snap a set up

massive improvement in looks

i think the problem is that over the years owners of these cars have made the changes to their liking, you see alot of interest in the import taillights and projectors from the aus sper owners, and i'd say it would have been the same for the Japanese based cars too. interchangeable parts got to love it. you would have to look at the brochure to see the original specs of each model..

My Aus GXE has import projectors and import taillights and turbo centre garnish, i even put in HR31 front seats hehe
