i saw it move after he put the 2jz and it ain't no joke....i think it's for sale u know.

It runs great. We dusted a supercharged TC. Made it look like a dot in the mirrors. Yeah its for sale. It more than what I would pay for it, but its a great car.

that's why it isn't sold as yet....cause it's more than what alot of people would pay for it....but based on what he put into it.....i think it's a pretty good deal

Ok gentlemen, a slight update on the project. Just did the lighting this past weekend. Got the HIDs installed......8000K series. The 6000K was too white and the 10000K is too blue. They look great I think or at least I'm happy with it. Most cars, Bimmer, Benz, Acura etc... run that series. Its white with a bluish look. Also added Silver star to the fogs. Will post pics soon.

The next upgrade is to add the a strut brace from an Aristo. Got one for 35usd plus shipping. It will be in sometime next week.

i think stock HID's are 4300K-6000K. to be honest it very annoying when ppl have anything 6000k and above. very hard on the eyes.

I think you are wrong, they are 8000k stock. Anything below 6000k is like having halogen bulbs. 6000K is like super white. They are really bright. The higher you go the dimmer the lighting. 10000K is much dimmer than 6000k or 8000k etc.

i have 6000k on my teg and the OEM White is 5000k.......the 8000k and up looks way to after market to me.

[Lil Stig]

there no vehicle with 8000k stock padna thats jus murder the light lookin dimmer but it putting more stress on ur eyes. halogen bulbs are 3000K.

Did some checking to verify my facts and the Lexus LS, IS, GS, Benz S430, 500, Acura TSX, TL, CL, RL, S2K, to name a few, all carry 8K. More specifically the 8Ks emmit a white beam w/purple hue. Best example is on the TSX.

Also, the reason you're hit with HID glear is due to the fact that alot of folks put retro-fit HID systems on cars which their headlights are not design for them and where originally made to accommodate and maximize poorer lighting that came with halogen bulbs. Thats why most cars today with HIDs have projectors in their headlight housing.

i don't know about the rest of the cars but i know for the Lex IS.....my brother has a HID kit from an IS on his ES and the ballast says bulb says 5000K on the side of it.
