Hey guys,

Im trying to find out if R34 head lights are interchangable (with modding) between models (GT / GTT). More so interested if they all fit the GTR?

Any physical or visual differences between all head lights?

- I would assume that non xenon heads do not have the "Xenon" lettering in the low beam housing

- GTRs have the "silver" trimming around the edges of the low + high beam housing and GT & GTT heads are just black??

- Indicators look different

Correct me if im wrong

Any other differences?

Will end up buying a set so I can do some custom work and retrofit a pair of S2000 projectors into the low beam housing for a mates GTR. Havent heard or seen this done before. Hope to be the first!

Thanks in advance,

Stevo

Okay, with the headlights of the R34 GT/GTT these are the only thing I can noticed the differennce is the Park Light (Outter bit of th light)

GT:

GTT (this is a series 2 front bumper for R34):

I Prefer the second picture headlights (GTR's have the same), but you see some GTT with the first picture headlights.

hope that helped?

Yeh as above first are non xenon halogen lights and the second are the xenon factory option. The hid gets cut out but mine were just convered back to halogen bulbs during compliance. I still have the xenon lights however and they are back to HID.

Personally I think the Xenons look by far the best!

As for the silver trimming, the xenons in the GTTs have the same trimming, its not black like you suggested

I had a look at your other threads since I figured you wanted to do a projector retrofit...

A dude on GTR.co.uk has done the projector retrofit;

Looks a bit retarded to be honest, and the R34 already has a nice cutoff, so I don't really see the point...

Unless you just want to do it to be unique, then by all means, go ahead, it should be an interesting project :P

Thanks for sharing.

Thats the first ever retrofit Ive seen done to R34 heads. But it looks like the donor heads are the Non-Xenon ones due to the look of the parkers. In my opinion the housing should have been painted black with the silver trimming (Xenon look). The gap around the "low beam" housing looks too big. A "shroud" to cover this gap up would have looked better.

The only thing im going to do with this project is replace the "low beam" chrome reflector with the S2000 projector. I will fabricate a shroud out of fibre glass, using stockings to form the shape and paint it black to blend in with the rest of the housing. Try and keep looking OEM as possible :thumbsup:

If you have ever seen the width and sharpness of an S2000 cutoff line you'll know why im opting for this projector.

Currently doing a quad projector setup on my Evo VII, so im no stranger to custom retrofits.

and yes! S2K is one of the projectors

Does the S2000 use the same projectors as the Accord Euro?

I remember reading about retrofits a few years back when I wanted to do one on my previous car and the Accord Euro projectors were held in a very high regard.

Also, everyone seemed to want the Infiniti Q45 projectors as well, the ones that are like gattle guns lol

Got any pics of your quad projector retro fit into the Evo?

Dont the Evo 7's come with a projector as well, what are the other 3 for?

S2000 pros are different to Euro. These are the top 2 OEM projectors to come out of the east. S2K has a slightly wider beam pattern and has more color flicker at the cutoff than euro. But you certainly pay for it. Euro is a good bang for buck projector.

Infiniti Q45 projectors:

yeah heard about these projectors but have never seen light output pix

I will be running:

- Infinity FX35 Bi-Xenon (low & high beamn) projectors in the "low beam" housing

- S2K AP1 Xenon (low beam) projectors in the "high beam" housing

- fog light left standard

Ive got a thread on my custom heads on the EvoOz forum, but I dont thing ppl here would wanna see Evo VII heads on a Skyline forum :thumbsup:

Yes, VII heads do have projectors but they dont match the width and colour of an S2K. I want the best!!!

What do you mean other 3????

You said Quad projector, I assumed you meant 4 in each headlight lol

Found the thread, :thumbsup:

:):) nice find.. Ive got a taillight thread too.

no surprises where that is

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
