tyaos Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 as per pictures showing everything is same but I in MAX is different one has 20A another one has 6.5A one is about $100 expensive... what is I and is that much different in brightness or as terms of good or not? cheers paul Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177308-here-is-two-different-type-of-hid-kit/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
POLICE Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177308-here-is-two-different-type-of-hid-kit/#findComment-3239229 Share on other sites More sharing options...
heller44 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 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. james.

skybarge Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 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) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177308-here-is-two-different-type-of-hid-kit/#findComment-3240050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam-__- Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 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.

MANWHORE Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/177308-here-is-two-different-type-of-hid-kit/#findComment-3241800 Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam-__- Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 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....
