R33 Gts25t Headlights

[PM-R33]

I didn't know it was that easy to just "wire in". Any one here seen it done before? What do those displays go for? That's got me thinking now....

i have the wiring diagram for r33 somewhere if you want it.

if i remember right it display boost, oil pressure, oil temp, water temp, intake temp (only on vspec 2 model) and some other stuff.

they arent hard to find but do cost upwards of $1000, you just need to find one that comes with the plug then u chop the plug off and connecting the wires to ur ecu wires

Hmm interesting. I've got the wiring diagrams for the R33, might look into this if i can pick one up for a decent price. The worst thing about it would be cutting up the dash, but i suppose there would be a way around this.

I completely agree, the conversion above was done by the owner and I assisted him by advising which parts to buy.

The only parts not readily available were the brackets (as I designed them) and the owner had them manufactured at his own cost.

The above conversion cost about £280 from memory, his intention is to also have a carbon duct through the headlight feeding the intake.

There's no shroud around the projector as I never got round to designing one and the owner didn't want one anyway.

I've never done a step-by-step guide for the headlights but have done one for the rear lights..

I reckon you should do a guide for the headlights bro... series 2 owners cant really get the other series headlights on if what Ive been reading is correct. Help us out plz?

Started off with the standard halogen light;

The Bi-Xenon pojectos I used in this conversio were from and Audi A6 - later version.

The lenses were removed to allow installation, also the soleniod control circuit was removed and the loom extended so that it can be connected to the OEM loom;

The 3D bracket using the original mounting points of the halogen lamp allowing adjustment as per OEM light.

No mounting the Bi-Xenon projector to the original halogen reflector;

Connected the projector to the OEM loom and had a trial installation to ensure everything was aligned;

Started building the lights back up;

And then Steve decided he wanted custom side lights as well!;

(You can see the solenoid control circuit has been removed, wired extended and installed bottom left between the main and high beam units)

Results;

Beam Alignment;

If you want more info, as in how to split the lights apart etc let me know.

Cheers,

Matt.

cheers matt, much appreciated

quick question, the projector units, do they have a levelling device? dunno how it applies in the UK but here to do these conversions and have them comply with the ADR' (specifically ADR 13) in cars built after 1st October 1991 we have to have:

1. either a vehicle or a headlamp self levelling device to orientate the beam, as well as

2. a headlamp cleaning device to remove debris from the lens that may otherwise cause light refraction beyond the low beam cut-off line

this is for HID of course but you see where I'm coming from. I've seen nozzles that just spray water onto the headlamp be used as a cleaning device so that shouldn't be too hard, it's the levelling that has got me thinking.
