My headlights are shitty lookin' and I'm thinking about getting a HID conversion kit. Does anyone have any suggestions or things I should be aware of when planning on doing this, or better yet looking for advice from someone who has already done it. I notice with a lot of the kits online they include 2 globes but I would need 4 would I not? Or are you only supposed to do it on the high beams?

just need a kit of the 2 globes, and the ballast with the cabels etc, all comes in the kit

they r illegal you can be done for them cos there not factory, and you dont have the auto leveling and washes etc and r33s dont have projector style headlights

go to the group buy section on the forums im sure theres a group buy on them at the moment, thats how i got mine

and installation is simple and easy:

just take out ur halogens

remove the cap

drill a 2.5cm hole in the cap

feed in the cabels and connect it to the hid globe

put cap bak on

find a suitable place to put the ballast and secure it there

and up to you if you want to do high and low beam, ur low beams will be brighter so you wont be using your highs as much any more

You can get a decent set of hid's from where I work in midland gee. Will coat ya 149, but coz your with sau il do em cheaper. Only do the low beam, that's what I've done, and jus a set of aftemarket bulbs for the hi beam as you wont use em much.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.

      What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.

      Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
