woot, got bored and did this, r32 headlights on s14 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

240meowth · 11-10-2007, 10:01 PM

so one of my s14 headligth bracket broke so i bought these, what do you guys think? the corner lights don't match up well at all... still trying to find a way to make the corners ziptie on properly. i took some pictuers w/ grill and some w/o trying to see which looks better.

B Love · 11-11-2007, 01:13 AM

Not too bad. I wouldnt spend extra cash to make my car look like that. I think it will look better once it is fit properly.

!Zar! · 11-11-2007, 01:25 AM

Would be interesting to see hid's in there and the cut off.

Could be cheaper for some people who want to have a decent headlight setup.

Doesn't line up all that well, but whatever. As long as you truly were bored and not just saying that as a cover up.

projekt_s13 · 11-11-2007, 01:30 AM

Couldnt you use the R32 corner lights?
Doesnt look too bad, actually looks better then the OEM zenki headlights.

GabeS14 · 11-11-2007, 01:33 AM

maybe add some kind of rubber around the corner light to fill in the extra space, (like the S15 headlights have)

damn you caught me, i spent all my time trying to get this thing working =( ha ha ha, HID's will be pretty difficult with the OEM r32 projector, it has a weird setup. I was thinking about moving my e-class bi-xenons from my s13 to this setup... but i don't know if i'm that bored...

j00ni3 · 11-11-2007, 06:08 AM

not bad~~... it's hard to make shit fit. i know.. ugh

2nd and 3rd pic reminded me of a maxima.. dunno why.... hum..

go back to stock lights ... just my op.

yarou · 11-11-2007, 06:12 AM

Yeah, try to make it look a little more flush with some kind of rubber or go back to stock lights. The empty space and unevenness with the corner lights make it look a little haggard. Have you tried the r32 corners?

Koopa Troopa · 11-11-2007, 08:05 AM

R32 corner lamps won't fit in Silvia fenders and are too long, already tried to do GTR corners...

Ian · 11-11-2007, 08:15 AM

good from far, far from good

KnightRyderx2 · 11-11-2007, 08:38 AM

Not bad... I know R32 corners they wont fit right up but thats where you gotta decide if you really wanna complete this or not....

So, finish it up with the corners or go back to stock... Just my opinion. But, if you like it then leave it its your car...

Koopa Troopa · 11-11-2007, 08:47 AM

R32 corners won't fit..... They're too long and will push the headlamps further in... Besides they're not even the same shape as 14 corners...

swift_style · 11-11-2007, 09:27 AM

The first two pictures look perfect.
Great time spent for being bored.

IIIXziuR · 11-11-2007, 10:04 AM

It actually looks decent, but like everyone said something to fill in the "gaps" would make it look closer to OEM or so.

11-11-2007, 01:06 PM

those headlamps will never work

stop wasting your time with h1 halogen bullshit headlamps, and go 97-98

Ya but you could trim the fenders a bit and make them fit. If you really wanna make this set-up look good then you are gunna have to do some metal work anyways.

if you wanna save money, sell your headlights on ebay, and buy the kouki headlights(egay style)($200)
make those fit!
that would look pretty cool

Wouldn't those fit worse than the Skyline headlights?

No you can't. The lights are narrower at the end.. You'd have to fill in the fender with fiberglass or bondo...

JRas · 11-12-2007, 12:10 AM

forget 97-98 headlights may as well just get glass euro zenki headlights.

kdashy · 11-12-2007, 12:20 AM

One word.

Janky.

Massive hood gap gives you aids.

Thats what I was talking about when I said you have to decide if you want to go through with this or not. To just leave them like that people would think great he did this but is he going to finish it now. Get the R32 corners and make them fit. Cut the metal shape with fiber glass and fill in with bondo. Ohh yeah fix the hood gap too. Thats what I meant by finish it or go back to stock...

240meowth, not bashing you at all brother. I just think this is a good idea and that you should finish it and make it all work. Go for it and do it right so you can have something nice and different...

AznDrftr. · 11-12-2007, 06:21 AM

Nice, i like it.

*fliprayzin240sx* · 11-12-2007, 06:39 AM

Fuckit, run the the R32 fenders too...they would some what bolt up on the S14.

Only catch is itll flare out like a damn wide body...youll have a nice lil fender vent by the door...

Kouki headlights wont work, you'll have gappage all over. Hood wont line up and youll have a gap on the bumper.

diomedes · 11-12-2007, 08:33 AM

It looks good from far away.

240meowth · 11-12-2007, 10:03 AM

taking r32 corner light donations in the name of SCIENCE!

B Love · 11-12-2007, 11:04 AM

I dono might as well just get the whole front end. But I think Kouki>R32

I agree, you could go that way. Or if you could get R32 gts-t fenders, there not as wide as the GT-R32...

240meowth · 11-12-2007, 05:20 PM

also, the corner lights looks like ass is because i just zip tied it on and it's lose on there, this weekend i shall look into ways to make it sturdy, but then, the lines from the headlight would still not work...

qwikspool · 11-12-2007, 06:11 PM

it looks ok.
