Projectors In R33 S2

[sky-017]

after an L plater reversed into my car i decided to do the repairs my self and keep the insurance cash . in the process of sanding scratches out of my headlight, i decided to switch to projectors with hids . bought myself a pair of lexus es300 headlights , and took out the projectors . heated the headlight cover off and mounted the projector , installed the hid . suprisingly it came out a lot better then i though it would . i ended up putting 6000k hids in . im halfway there just have one more headlight to do .

as hard as it is , there is no aftermarket headlights for r33 , unless of coarse you buy r33 gtr headlights with the projector . they look pretty neat although they are like 2k aparently . this job basically cost me $200 ... $50 for the es300 headlights and $150 for the hids .... tell me what you think , ill get some pics up later of night views... cheers

looks great! will have to put this on the to do list. are you going to put a cover the surrounding of the projector? like where you can see the screws?

clean job man well done

thanks for the comments guys cheers .. as for putting a cover , to be honest you cant really see it with all the surroundings being black . i was going to spray the actual projector black , but when i put it in you couldnt even see . just took some pics at night for you guys to see ... i want to get the other headlight done aswell . although it is time consuming to remove those plastic covers , especially when your oven is too small lol and you have to use a blow drier.

More pics during the day please Looks good mate, a lot of us have wanted to do this mod, yours is probably the nicest i've seen so far.

Since you have done it, do you believe the high beam one could be replaced just as easily with the projectors?

wow very nice indeed

[gotRICE?]

Whats the story with the focus? Is it like normal?

Cos most HID's that are installed in a regular headlight are too sharp etc.

Would be nice for a shot of the actual beam too

that looks great mate

want to do mine

[sky-017]

im currently tweaking adjustment at the moment , but its getting there . as for hi beams , i have the 2 other projectors from the es300s which i could do .

dang thats awesom would loe to give that a try. but dont wana wreck my s2 headlights

[sky-017]

ahh you wouldnt ruin your headlights , there isnt any modifiying into the actual head light , you basically are just mounting them in . all you need to do is just remove the standard beam , which can always be put back in again . im working on the focus pics guys , finally had both done last night , now all i have to do is just get the correct adjustment which is taking a bit of time , but i will have some good pics up asap . thanks

[PM-R33]

Sweet, looking forward to more pics

Wow nice dude!

So you don't have to cut the original headlights to get the HID projectors in?

I'm tempted to do this but I'm afraid the GTR would attract even more police attention I regularly get pulled over at least once/wk for breath testing near where I live.

na man no cutting , all depends what side projector u got , but mine were pretty big .
