Hi guys,

can anyone tell me the different between R32 N1 headlight and R32 GTS (non turbo) headlight?

cheers

Apparently there are the clips to hold the GTR grille on with that the GTST lights dont have. Also it has been said that the glass is thinner to make them lighter and the reflection pattern on the inside of the glass is slightly different. I have never seen a pair in person so i cant confirm this, if you want the N1 spec look then simple little brackets can be made to make a gtr grille bolt up without using the clips on the gtr headlights.

Also the non projector headlights were fitted to turbo versions of the sedan (like mine), the inner light is a fog light operated by a button on the dash to the right of the steering wheel, if you have projector headlights than this button would operate your factory fog lights fitted into the mspec front bar.

Be very weary of anyone trying to flog you 'genuine' N1 GTR headlights on ebay if they dont have detailed photos of the clips and can tell you the weight. Go tot eh wreckers and but a set of non projector headlights and make up a bracket for the GTR grille.

There are more threads on this topic if you do a search.

i got the 'semi-clear' headlights, has the brackets for a GTR grille, i was told they were GTS4 headlights

also i dont have side indicators as they headlight blinker sticks out abit.

so what headlights are they?

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
