Hey Guys,

Just wondering if there is anyone who either has a matching set of headlights (Left and Right), or knows of a cheap wreckers where i can find some (e.g. less then $380 each!!! Bloody dear) to fit a Series1 R33 GTS-t - FOR SALE.

Had a bingle the other day and pretty much have written-off both of the headlights so have to look for the cheapest replacement ones possible!!!

P.S. This is a question that no-one has been able to answer me, can Series2 headlights fit into a Series1 - as i know structually inside they are different - if this is the case then i'm also looking for a set of series2 headlights - as they look heaps better!!!!!

Any Help Much Appreciated,

I have two near new Series 1 headlights I don't need... I bought them for my Series 1 GTS-t, put them on for about a month, then took them off because I sold it.

I took the black things off the back of one of the headlights, but you can just use the ones off your old ones to replace them.

As I said, they're seriously about a month old, and look brand new. I'll let them go for $500 for both of them.

Email me: [email protected] if you're interested.

There are four round, black plastic discs that you turn and remove to get access to the bulbs. I removed two from one of the headlights, the other headlight is untouched.

You cracked all four of those discs?!?!?

Most nissan dealers can order in new ones from Japan but it would be $$$$

I recently just replaced my left headlight. The old one got smashed, I got it from a wrecking yard that specialises in Jap Imports. I didnt find one place that sells them for less than $380. They are hard to find, so if you can get one for $380 and they have them in stock then buy it as soon as you can.

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
