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:

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
