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:

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
