Some points to note after reading some of the recent comments: 1. "Self Levelling" is NOT "built" into R32 halogen projector headlights. A vehicle will have "Self Levelling" (aka: Auto Levelling) if

Do you think it will be good if we only replace the stock projector with an hid projector?

So i will keep the stock h3c bowl and put an hid cutoff shield with an hid projector.

Then, buying an hid h3c bulb kit.

is that a good? i'm just thinking that it will be easier, but i'm not sure how the h3c hid kit will light up.

i'm doing the same retrofit, but i'm using the e46 projector.

i have the same problem as you, the projector are smaller in lenght. So i will have to cut the back, in order to fit the ballast adapter wire to the bulb.

i got my over cooked ones out, and fitted a fresh set of headlights, and decked them out with blue angel eyes,! looks nice i think!

If anyone wants to get a set of angel eyes, be sure not to get squid rings, or LED eyes... they suck

They cost me about $170 and 2hours of fitting! but look trick!

Sir D, I totally agree with you on that one. for some reason, nissan feels that the reflectors are better than projectors. For halogen lighting, they might very well be right.

All the r32s/s14/s13 with the projectors have absolutely shit light output. The r33 reflectors actually have pretty good light output compared to the r32 ones.

PS: My gtr lights are almost here. woohhooo. then comes the hardbit - trying to fit them. I might have an excuse to get gtr front bar, bonnet and possibly even guards just to fit these lights on.

lol

      I can believe it if you're getting air into the pickup. Cavitation is tremendously destructive for pumps.

      I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low

      In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.

      Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info
