r32 + Cefiro HID Group Buy!! (in 2weeks)

[someonestolecc]

HID GROUP BUY NOW OPEN!

The kits are Kaixen, which are a quality Korean brand - Sure we'd all like to go German but when you're not going to spend $1k+ on headlights then this is the next best thing (imo). Checkout BATMBL's website about them www.bosimporting.com.au

The price will be $390 delivered - this is a damn good price guys I haven't found any cheaper.

You have the choice is 6000k or 8500k. The 6000k is white with a tiny tinge of blueness. The 8500k is basically blue. The 6000k is the one that will provide the better light but the 8500k will probably attract more attention. Needless to say I went with the 6000k one

I said earlier that these will require an extra little wire to ground the bulbs if you had H3C (like my cefiro and my flatmates r32) - I have installed this and THIS IS NOT THE CASE. The H3 kit will go straight in to a H3 or H3C assembly.

disclaimer -

I've heard that r32 projector lights can be H3C or H1. Cefiros also differ!! My flatmate's r32 was H3C's, BHDave's were H1 - both r32s of similar years. This is up to you to check which kit you should use!!! IF IN DOUBT POST UP A PIC!!!!!! This is not my responsibility!!

:wizard:

This group buy has expanded since I started it but the focus is still about cefiro owners so snap it up lads! :crazy:

[edit note:] I've edited this post to reflect the current information. Basically all you have to do is to PM me or say in this thread "Yes I am confirmed, I'd like to have 6000k/8500k in H1/H3/H4" and I will update the list.

You will pay BATMBL straight into his account - I don't want no money! This ensures you get warranty (1yr).

Once we hit 10 people everyone will then be asked to pay into the account. You will then be sent the kits and they will be delivered to you around 2 weeks. Simple as that!

If anyone has any problems with the way the group buy is operating then make suggestions but I don't wanna talk about how to do it all week I'd rather just do it hehe

I've put mine in today and I've got pics.

Pic 1 - left side 55w phillips halogen (bluevision) only

Pic 2 - right side kaixen HID kit 6000k only

Pic 3 - both sides showing for a comparison

Pic 4 - Looking at the lights (it's off centre to get the correct spot metering)

They're nice.. real nice and even better on the road I'm particularly impressed with the cut off of the projectors, also the lack of glare, although these factors are more to do with the projectors than the kit itself those buying HID for the first time to fit in projectors would like to know they work nice

[[[d a n n y]]]

count me in as i pm'd ya

available for 6000~7000K?

[someonestolecc]

I am waiting to hear from BATMBL to see if the colours will be choosable - I will update my first post when confirmed.

I can't guarantee these will fit BNR32 - have you checked they are H3 or H3C ? (photos of H3C assembly from thread linked in first post)

If you still want to be in please say so in the thread and I will start the list in 2 weeks when the group buy is open.

If all reports are good I will be in for some for Cefiro. I have the 2 round projector/fog light assembly on mine.

[CerealKiller]

well I've got a R32 with projector lights. I'm not sure if that's H3C or H1...I think BATMBL said they were H1...

Anyhow I'll be in if it's the right fitment and the price doesn't fluctuate too much from $390

[jazree]

count me in if it fits in an r32 gtr, im sure the bulbs are h3c..anyway keep us posted when can u get the stuff..

[someonestolecc]

Good to get some interest we might hit 10 or 20 at this rate.

r32 guys you will have to check your lights - I've attached the picture of the H3C assembly. If it doesn't look like this you have H1's in which case please contact BATMBL directly!

If you notice the little wire that's plugged into the plug I'm holding that's the 'conversion' for H3C to accept H3 bulbs (the HID kit will be H3) - we all need to do this to allow the H3 bulbs some grounding.

First post updated.

- Choice of 6000k or 8500k available.

- Disclaimers added

[jazree]

when n where do we sign up? weather in perth is kinda gloomy with winter on full swing..kinda cool to have the hid during nite driving..

[someonestolecc]

This group buy starts in 2 weeks after I have them installed in my car so I can take pics and stuff and also gives people time to get their $$ together.

So the group buy will open in 2 weeks - I will update the thread, give details of when we can expect the kits at your door from time of payment and all that sorta stuff. Just have $ in 2-3weeks because with this much demand I think we should be able to have enough confirmations and stuff within the first week of the group buy so it should be fairly quick.

[S13Deviat]

Count me in dude!!!! 6000K 4 me plz

[dangerous_daveo]

I have the updated lights on my cef and Im pretty sure they are H4 globes. Just so people who havent checked know.

[jaik]

Whats the difference between 6000k and 8500k --- illumination or something? Whats best?

JK

[dojobi]

4100k is the brightest and is what all the OEMs fit. The closer to 4100k the better for light output. 4100k still looks blue when you pass them on the roads though, so don't think that you need high temperatures to get the cool look. Check out http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/ for info on HID retrofits/kits. They're generally pretty against kit upgrades on that site and more into retrofits btw.

I'm interested in get a set, problem is that my ceffy is a ser.2, which means that I require a H1 kit... If you can arrange this, PM me with the details..

Thanks

Hey guys i know its slightly off topic but i bought a set of H1 4500k HID White globes for my R32. Just wondering if its a simple plug and play globe swap for these???

I noticed the set up on the R32 is low and high beam are seperate globes, do the H1's that i bought go straight into the low beam spot and you leave the high beam alone or need others for high beam as well???

Cheers GMB

[someonestolecc]

Daveo - H4's what the?

XZE - H1's what the?

Well guys looks like when you're buying these you WILL have to check your bulbs to make sure you order the right ones - I will not be held responsible if you pick the wrong ones. I will ask supplier if it's ok to chose which type you want then anyone can have whatever the hell they want.

XZE - I have a set of H1's sitting here I was going to exchange for H3s when they came in but will sell them to you if you want (wouldn't mind the money in the meantime to buy an oil cooler). PM if interested.

grandmasterb - You need ballasts for HID bulbs to work so if you didn't get those you didn't get an HID kit. High beams don't generally use HID because they take a while to warmup. Please start another thread for help on this.

[funkymonkey]

my cef has H4's and my skyline has H1's... lol...

[A31Drifter]

My ceffie is a genuine ser. II it has the chrome lights not black like most ceffies they use H1 globes with a 3 prong holder/ adapter to fit the loom will the hid kit fit my setup???

First post updated in bold to reflect the various bulb kits cefiro owners have

My ceffie is a genuine ser. II it has the chrome lights not black like most ceffies they use H1 globes with a 3 prong holder/ adapter to fit the loom will the hid kit fit my setup???

I'm not sure about the lights being chrome or black. But you'll have to determine which type they are. If you're sure they are H1's then yes the H1 kit will fit them.

My ceffy has the 3 prong thing too that's the plug that goes to both the high beam and the low beam. If you notice each actual light then plugs into that. You will have to plug the hid kit into the one the low beam goes into. Full instructions are in there but I didn't really read them - if you pick them up from BATMBL he will show you, if you pick em up from me I will show you too.
