I saw this car at the auctions in the last few weeks. This is the pic of it from Jap.

Are you the owner of this car?

I would like to know how you got it out here in under 2 weeks!!

RPS13X,

That isnt my vehicle just had it handy at the time of posting for an example. But you get the idea. Im part of a cefiro owners group at www.skylinesaustralia.com and have ventured to find out why the lights are all so dim on most of the cefiros.

BTW below is mines. If curious.

Just like on Silvias, Cefiro's came with different types of headlights. Having access to 2 silvias, one with projectors and one with the older square lights, I can say that the projector lights are 10x better at lighting up the road than the square lights.

I'm sure the same applies to cefiros. The projector version lights will work much better than the square ones. Luckily my Ceffy has projectors.

ive got projector beams on mine and cant still see squat. Might have to change the wattage of the globes. Either that or the right one is not aligned properly onto the road.

BTW
im also waiting to meet up with mys013/inark when they get theres here. Just to confirm if its dead or not (no malice intended here). If not im gonna sell mines and gets one next time with an rb25/sr20 hamburger with the LOT. All for an extra 200,000 yen. Quite a few of these are popping up occassionally.

I was going to wait for an SR one to turn up, but got too impatient and bought an RB20DET one...

I'm putting an SR in it this weekend!

regarding s13 lights, i use to have the twin square, the reflective material inside the normal beams lens have started to wear and flake off, thus not giving the 100% luminicity it should hav
