have any of you guys ever seen altezza lights for skylines?

im putting in projector lenses for my headlights, but its going to be a manual job, of using either vx commodore lenses or another kind. i dont want the lense to be too small as the larger the gap around will have to be. should make the xenon's look twice as good and light up more road than street signs and ambo's, but i can see a cop from 500m away.

apparently r33 series 2 GTR had xenon lights had the projector, but they're hard to come buy at a decent price, e.g. 400+ per light.

any comments would be appreciated.

and do you think they would look any good?

VIVA Garage have some clear tail lights, not too sure on the price, thinking about $800, havn't seen too many sets of them around! I would buy them but i have better mods to worry about than lights(the GO GO GO GO fast bits).

well the first thing people notice is with their eyes and ears so i thought cosmetics would be a good start.

also may make the car look newer, as the lights make the car look aged.

Well i picked up a right side damaged holden headlight from claridge, and am in the process of fitting the projector lense to the Skyline headlight. will post some picks up along the way.

need to order another HID set as the Holden takes a H11 globe.

so when they arrive, its all a matter of pulling apart the nissan headlight, using the existing silver surround of the holden lense and cutting it to fit into the low-beam of each headlight. its a pretty similar fit so should look good.

ive started the right side and ill let you know how it goes.

well its only labour. im using holden vy series lights and basically cutting the surround down to size. then u melt your healidht, unscrew the existing surround and fit this one in with a few cuts.

you could do it with any projector lense headlight, but it depends how neat u want it.

im getting the parts for free from a crash repair, and it looks like a 100grand merc when its at a set of lights.

replacement cost of the holden headlights is 360 each to buy so depends how much u want it, otherwise u have to wait for a crash repairer to get some. im still waiting for the left side to finish.

but u do need H11 globes @ 45 each otherwise a H11 HID kit at around 350-400

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
