R34 GTT HEADLIGHTS - Projector or Reflector?

Which HID bulb would suit them ? D2S or D2R ?

I've had the HID's removed at compliance (Still has Xenon housing), but getting a HID kit soon.

Is the housing sutiable for a HID kit ?

Will there be glare or have a sharply cut beam ?

Reflector

As they are the factory Xenon headlight units, if you put a HID kit in, it will look fine on the road.

Pull the current globe out to check which fitting it is. Hx (where x equals a number between 1&7)

And please for the love of god don't put an 8000k kit in.... they look horrendous!!!!

Good Luck

aren't Xenon suppose to be legal as long as they are factory standard? I got mine complied, went thru the pit twice with Xenon on... they picked it up and I told them it's factory standard.....they didn't believe me so they check the seal and Stuff original Japanese...and passed ....

Xenon's need to be self height adjusting and also have washers to be legal. Skyline Xenon's are not self height adjusting nor do they have washers and hence do not meet ADR's.

The guys at the pits didn't know what they were on about.

I'd be SERIOUSLY surprised if you got Defected for them by the Police. Just ask them how thye differ from Mercs and BMW's and they wont be able to tell you :D

I know of a few 34's that went through compliance with the ballasts and xenon bulbs still intact just depends on who you go through.

back to the question 34 headlights are most definently reflector

There shouldn't be any glare since it has the correct housing, but you won't get the sharp cutoff as it's not a projector. If they did something a little dodgy when they modified the bulb holder base so that it's sitting in a different position, you might get a weird light pattern. This shouldn't be the case though.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
