No offense at all, but do you really think you're telling us something we didn't already know?

Lamborghini actually only contracted Nissan for the headlights because they were having financial trouble and couldn't put money into the design of their own headlights but liked the Z's; it was a budget decision. I think it looks good on both cars though.

But Nissan, being clever, decided that they'd give Lamborghini the regular headlights and redesign their own, thus resulting in the 1999 Xenon HID headlights on the last version of the Z32.

i think the issue may be the fact that this has been covered quite a few times on this and most other z forums, and is fairly common knowledge. this fact would be revealed via a simple use of the Search function.

Well, at least it wasn't a rice related topic.
I first feared that this thread was going to be about a lambo door conversion for a Z.
Then all hell woulda broke loose.

you know, the z32 already has lambo doors. they have always reminded me a bit of the doors on a Miura when they are open with the windows down. (the original, not the concept). what a sexy car, if i had to pick a lambo, it would have to be the Miura, hands down.

i think you should quad sequential turbo it and add twin centrifugal superchargers to eliminate lag. and spend $10k on the HKS 6 speed transmission!!!!

you could if you like SUPER low boost and plumbing custume IC pipes, replacing the NA ecu to a tt ecu and running with a little race gas, not to mention making a new oil system... taking the block apart in the process, drilling out oil galleys, tt headers. ALL SORTS OF CRAP
To mention a few things.
TT swapp is better.
OR you could just do the NOS route...

I did not know about the headlamps nor the Kill Bill sighting. A forum like this is supposed to be about the sharing of information, not a haven for SEARCH *****.
