Hello, I just picked up a r32 gtst recently and was looking into getting some new headlights. I'm in the US, so parts aren't easy to come by yet, so I'm trying to make sure I get the right thing. The car has a gtr front end (front bumper, corners, and I believe headlights). They are the projector headlights with the rings around the projectors. Anyway, the previous owner put some cheap HID kit in and kind of hacked up the back of the lights to try and fit them in. They look pretty dumb so I'd like to just use the OEM bulbs, but am just getting new lights so I have all the needed parts and stuff (plus they are missing the clips that hold the bulbs in and such).

My question is, are pretty much any of the lights universal? Specifically the projectors (ringed or non-ringed)? I'm looking at eBay ads and the harnesses on the back look different. On my car, each bulb looks to have a separate harness that goes directly into a loom of wires for the main wiring harness. In the ads, such as the ones below, the bulb harnesses look to lead to another harness that then plugs elsewhere. Would either of these work for me, or do I need something specific? Thanks for the help.

Yeah they're essentially the same. If you're worried about wiring, run your own wiring with relays and thicker wires.

Oh, and do a retrofit. Left is FX-R, right is standard projector.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
