apparently projector lights are better but they need to be pointed upwards so you can see 3m in front as opposed to the 2m...;)

Not sure what you mean about pearl vs clear.

Seriously the only way to make a real difference with R32 headlights is to retro fit a HID kit, unfortunately it costs a fair bit.

I noticed a definite difference with the later model projector's.

They do need to be angled up slightly as the Coco pops Killer said so his self. :cheers:

I think the lenses go clear when they are stuffed.. I had one do it on my old set of head lights. It also didn't put out as much light. Unsure really.

I also like the standards a little better.. Not the 89 model conventional types but the projector style without the ring around the outside.

With the ring around the projector it makes the head lights stand out a little too much. Looks kind of strange.

While we are on the topic of headlights does any one know of a method or some one who can recondition the silver lense? One of mine has started flaking a little. :cheers:

They're identical to the ones you pictured. My GTST had the GTR front end with the grill etc so they have the tags on the side of the lights and everything.

They are in perfect condition apart from the lens on the right head light has come loose in the corner and needs to be stuck back down. head light apart job.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
