N1 headlights organised (Ouch! they are NOT cheap!) also organised new indicators for the front.

interested to see what N1 headlights really look like. A lot of people call the pov-pack gtst headlights (with no projectors) N1 headlights and sell for big money. Would love to see pictures once you get them.

panel is loose and ready to remove. used a air saw to trim it out panel off. started grinding spot welds down at that point and tidying the rusted area in the middle. removed section of panel.

even the GTT isnt far off. i have a pair here that are destined for my better halfs VW. have been thinking about bolting them into my 33 (34 seats are a tad bigger), but they do require a small amount

I used a N1 to get them. should be the pov spec lights with brackets though as there are only two types of lights I can actually see in FAST. . at $750 a pop they will have special nuts holding them on..

I thought (when i looked into it years ago) the housing that had the moulded bracket's (for the grill) were gtst and the house that doesnt, but you can get a metal holder that screws on, were the N1 ones? or was it the other way round *confused look on face*pinch.gif

Other than that they look identical.

projector had the mounts (GTST-GTR) - non projector (GTS/N1 ) did not have them. been looking at both types and the GTS lights grew on me so I bought a new set. I have a set of projectors as well that someone can keep :)

And this is were it gets confusing.

My first R32 gtst had the non-projectors in it and im sure they had the mounts! ill try and find a photo. i am doubting myself now and saying im wrong because you have looked at the part numbers and it only lists the 2 styles.:wacko:pinch.gif

N1 LIGHTS

Does that help. the projectors already have the mounts in place. the non projectors do not.

I will probably use that car to pull a few other bits as well. things like air guides, oil coolers and the side skirts.

$515

PN# 91295-01U14

mildly off topic...

thanks for the subs and amp, got one of them and the amp setup in the boot now. its good to have some bass!

no probs. started researching the audio for mine. going for period audio (so 90s stuff) and I have started the search for a Orion 225HCCA.

given the age of it finding a 'new' one is going to be fun.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
