Can anyone tell me how you tell N1 headlights apart from the standard projector ones on the R32GTR. Is there any difference in their relative performance?

 

[GTR Jon]

Normal headlamp

N1 Headlamp

There are also 2 types of projectors - ones with silver ring around and ones without.

With the N1 you can't see much at night, in my experiance.

 

[RoboPope]

I tried both and they are all pony

 

[GTR Jon]

My N1's have a HID conversion and i have no complaints at all!

 

[R34Nismo]

anyone fancy doing some night shots with the variances to see what thay are each like.....

 

[GTR Jon]

I'll do some tomorrow night if no one else manages to get any. Like i said they are with the HID conversion though. Suppose it gives an idea of what they are like when converted.

My HID set up with Nismo lamps work very well (and look good too) its the full Dip and main beam set up.

 

[R34Nismo]

I think it would be good to have some night shots with all these cars all put together to see the difference, infront and behind.

Interesting info, i take it the N1's were fitted to ealier car's , mine's an early '89 GTR and came with the N1's, Picked up a set of projectors and am cosidering swapping over also have a set of high wattage bulb's has anyone tried these with either type of headlight, any more pic's info would be good:clap:

 

[R34Nismo]

How much are the hids for a R32, can't remember now ?

 

[lightspeed]

No N1's were fitted to the N1 model and also to the Group A cars.

I find N1's are fine with PIAA bulbs and plenty of carrots in your diet.

From what I know, N1 use H4 bulb (Proper Hi/Low Headlight Bulb)

And the projector use H3 bulb (Fog light bulb)

So I would "assume" he N1 headlight be alot better in term of lighting up the road. If anyone seen anything else, please say so.

 

[R34Nismo]

hmm i have both in myworkshop I may put them both up to one of them there MOT measured devices to see what the results are like.

me too, seem fine to me, but it could just very well be the HID kit. I hate how other buggers blind me with their HIDs, but they really do make for a better light - once I've had them, I can't go back...

 

[Nick MW]

I had N1s with normal H4 bulbs and you essentially had to "use the force" at night
