headlights

Is there anyway to brighten up the lights without full on HiDs?? I've put brighter bulbs in but it hasn't made much difference really. And how are our headlamps aimed? Mine seem to be pointing alil down

If you want HID level brightness, that's the only way to go.
Aiming your headlights will help your new lamps work better however, although you may find the adjusters rusted. There are two screw heads per each unit that lift and move the headlights, removing the middle cover and looking down the headlight body sides should reveal them. If rusted be sure to hit the whole thing with some penetrating lube and wait a bit- don't want to strip the heads which is very easy to do, or force the mechanism and bind it.
The OSM should also help you with the effort, found in the "everything you need to know about the Z32" sticky on the top of our page.
Good Luck!

I figured the only way for hid bright is them themselves. But. Bright enough to still see the road when someone drives by would be wonderful. The new cars are ridiculously bright for being cheepo bulbs.

our z32 headlights were used by lamborghini Diablo they are at a 30 degree angle or something like that and no wonder they do not light up the road.

Well since this post I've got the Sylvania superstar ultras.. And holy hell I was boy disappointed lol just aimed then up a few bits and on the open road the difference between the old bulbs is quite nice lol. Next is the fogs. those things are dismal. Any ideas how to get to those bulbs

They are held on by 3 or 4 10mm nuts on the back side behind the bumper. You can get to them from under the car.

Another way to access the foglight mounting nuts is to remove the turn signal light. Be careful when opening up the foglight itself, lots of times the plastic breaks due to age
