I've finally found them!!

I can't quite bring myself to spending USD2469.04 on a set of headlight but damn i want them so badly!

http://www.rhdjapan.com/jdm/BCNR33-Kouki-X...eadlights-12139

Anyone have a pic of these on a car? Anyone have these at all? Anyone know if they're any good or worth the money?

I'm seriously considering it and want to be talked out of it before i splurge when i know i need the money for more important things :P

mite be cheaper just to get r33 gtr series 3 headlights which came with xenon headlights,

i think i've read that they directly fit on series 1 r33 gts-ts but i'm not sure..

but prepared to still pay a heft price i think they are around 2k second hand

Bang for your bucks!

Contact God_speed for R33 GTR headlights with Xenon conversion.

Like a third of the price probably??

I never saw any discoloration or scratches on his lenses either before he upgraded - seemed to be perfect.

Cheers,

Tez

I wouldn't buy them man, they'll end up costing you round $2800 with current exchange rates, not sure if you have to pay tax too on top of that?

plus if you've got a series 1 you'll need some mods to fit and possibly a new front bumper/bonnet/grille, so yeah, upto you in the end I guess, but for nearly $3k you could get a nice power increase

Anyone have a pic of these on a car? Anyone have these at all? Anyone know if they're any good or worth the money?

Ahh, they're just the standard S3 GTR headlights, they came as an option on the S2 GTR's. They'll basically bolt straight in with the exception of the Grille if you have a S1 R33... Worth the money??? probably not unless your priority is aesthetics.

ouch, yeah that is quite a lot

where are you from?

sets of lights in NZ usually go for round 200-300 for the pair on Trademe here

there's a couple of ebay australia if you are a member:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-R33-GTS-GTST...1QQcmdZViewItem $102 current bid

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-R33-GTS-GTST...1QQcmdZViewItem $0.99c current bid

I'd expect both to go for round $150 each, did you have an accident and crack yours, or are you looking at upgrading the series 1?

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
