ok here's how it breaks down:

the N1 model was a GTR that was sold predominantly for use by shops to make race cars. so it came with no air con or heavier projector type headlights etc.

so you have:

S1 R32 - Povo Pack headlights (what you've got)

These came standard on all R32's (GTR and non GTR) in the first series

S1 R32 - Projector headlights

These were factory optional upgrades

S2 R32 - Povo Pack headlights (same as S1)

These came on GTS, GTSt, GTS4, GTE and GXi models standard

S2 R32 - Projector headlights (similar to S1's but the plastic moulding around the projector are slightly different)

These were equipped on Type M's, Type G's, Type S's etc and all GTR's, and available as factory optional upgrades.

ALL GTR's had a grill and not an extended bonnet lip, so they needed some way to hold these grilles in. Therefore they made allowances on BOTH pov pack and projector headlights for metal clips to hold the grilles in.

N1 GTR's, being equipped with stock pov pack headlights (which were usually turfed and replaced with a fibreglass or CF panel or duct of some sort) had these clips on them.

Therefore N1 GTR headlights are actually pov pack headlights with GTR clips.

So I hope that clears up the confusion. Anything else you may come by is custom made, be it by Nismo or any other company.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
