I is the current that flows through the wires and is calculated in Amperes.

V is the voltage within the wires measured in Volts.

R is the resistance measured in Ohms.

Basically I x R = V

so a smaller current will invoke a bigger resistance and vice versa

that's pretty much all I know

in terms of brightness, have no bloody clue

They both have the same nominal current rating,.. so should theoretically have the same power output.

The I in max, is the surge current that might be needed for situations, like starting the light output. Make sure the fuse is rated to handle the max current, and that the cable is rated high enough to carry that current safely.

I think it's not really the transformer packs that make the difference, it's the actual bulbs, go for round 6500k, because any lower turns nearly yellow, any higher turns blue, i had 12k in mine, was purple, but didn't have a very good output(still better than stock halogen)

If you're planning on purchasing a HID kit, in my opinion, don't go 6000k. Go for 4300k if you can. I've got 6000k globes and I think it's too blue. 4300k is the colour of white light (colour of sun light). But then if you like a blue look to your lights, go for it.

If I were to get HID's again, I would definately go retrofitting.

thx guys~lol

i will go for phillips before i buy HID..

if phillips give me a shit... ill def buy hid..

everyone says the phillips diamond vision is much brighter than stock yellow light... but i cant see before i try...

anyway thx for your opinion guys!

cheers

Neither of those will produce good light output. Absolute waste of money.

PM s8 Gohan. Tried installing hid kit into oem r34 hid housings.

Due to the fact that those crappy kits have a h1 fitting, and the housing has a stupid adapter in it for h1, the focal point has been moved.

Expect less light output than standard, glare other drivers, and to be defected within about a week.

Go oem - well worth the money, or don't do it at all

i couldnt find him in members..

does r34 has oem hid housing? you mean the projector? howmuch would that be? with installation??

R34's have HID's in reflector housings. All you would need to reinstall the HID globes are the original ballast and globes. They should fit right into place. I have no experience with R34 lights so I'm not too sure.

I think someone said that the original HID's are hard to come by and when you do see them for sale, they're at about the $700 mark, so....

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
