Retrofit HID projectors, or i think you can move the globe deeper into the reflector.

And what do you mean by its spread out, but like having high beams on? High beams make the beam narrower and longer, not more spread out...

I run HID's and have not had any issues with the light spread. Similar to the stock halogens just brighter. I adjusted the aim of the headlight to dip a little bit lower than stock via the screw on the back of the headlight.

Think he means glare. There's no longer a cut off line.

To fix this problem, you need to reinstall the halogen globes. Your headlights were never designed to take HID globes.

hrmm i might haveta take a pic n show you fellas but its only a 4300k

strange enough (dunno if this is normal or not) but when i turn em hid on, the colour changes from a bluely to white :D

Retro fitting projectors from Euros provide awesome results from what i have seen on the net. I have just fitted some 8000k Xenon's in my R34 a few weeks ago, i'm happy with the result, i mean it's not as great as the light/dark cutoff line you get with euro projectors. But it is a huge upgrade over Halogens.

ah okay, mind pointing me in the right direction as to who can supply me these?

Decent projectors are hard to be found at a good price in Australia. Best to buy a set from overseas and convert them to suit Australian roads if possible. All that's need to be done to the projector is modify the shield. There's a few sites explaining how to do this.

For more information about retrofitting projectors which were designed to take HID globes, head over to HID planet. Have a read.

    • I've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
    • Welcome.  Here's what I have noticed about forum vs FB..... FB; seems to be wallet racing, and the same few questions asked over and over. There *may* be some groups that are closer knit, but most have changed for the worse. SAU; unfortunately, no longer in its glory days. But....genuine people with similar interests. Not all about how much you spent and saying you dont have enough power. Sooooooo much knowledge available. Have personally seen people post up about literally topics I made myself, asking on FB like no one has done it before. Most has been done, and most of that is here.   If you ever feel like just general chatting theres the wasteland.  Other interests are also generally covered in other areas of the forum. Hope you enjoy hanging around. We would love to have you.   P.s. nice 32 😀
