JDM kouki’s have better projectors. I actually completely forgot about USDM projectors.
I remember PDM was selling those Hella H4 housings for the S13 popups, I don’t think they have them anymore. What do you guys think of those with some decent PIAA H4 bulbs? I also remember reading a thread by spd-dmn regarding those PIAA bulbs…good picture comparisons.
my thread was with hella housings and osram hyper H4 bulbs actually. but piaa’s will work well in them too
Buy your Silverstars at Partsource, keep your receipt and bills and you have up to a year to return defects. I used to work there and that’s how we rolled! (I actually think it was 5 years). If you buy any generic item look at your bill and it should say something about the warranty(either 1 or 5 years). I guess they never caught the mistake with providing a warranty on light bulbs. Now this was about 3 years ago, so don’t get mad if I’m wrong.
The JDM kouki>USDM kouki with HID’s. The cutoff is very much different between the two and just barley tolerable for oncoming traffic.
I have identical HID kits in the vert/hatch but the hatch has 02’ TSX projectors and the cutoff is like day and night. The light output is also at least 30% brighter and shows more of the 8000K bulbs colour which is yes blueish.
bing what housings did you have the hid’s in? ebay or hella?
I was using HELLA Rally style bulbs before i switched to HId’s just a few weeks ago, i was happy with the HELLA ones but changed anyway…take a look at them Bing.
