hid conversion

[LDZ-15T]

what size HID bulb fits the integra type R DC5 2002 and whats the nsw street legal colour, would 8000k be defectable?

[ksl]

DC5R uses H1 hid,
all aftermarket hid are defectable,
try to go with 6000k, white colour, less chance of getting defected .

thankz heaps

6000k is good enuf, 8000k is asking to much and other drivers would just be completely blind. not completely, but its a BTCH!

i had 8000k in my impreza, was a pure white beam.. didnt seem too bright, never got highbeamd by on coming traffic, nor did i get defected for them..

does the DC5S use the same H1 hid as the DC5R uses?

Yeah they share the same bulb.

Why would 8000k blind others more than 6000k when 8000k have less light output? Also, the fact that 6000k is more white than 8000k in colour would mean that 6000k would be more blinding...

Try shining a bright white LED torch into your eyes, then try one that is more blue... I can guarantee you the white would hurt more...

Edit: Also to the thread starter, as previously said, all HIDs are defectable, but 8000k will be more noticeable to a cop as it would have more tinges of blue/purple...

what about 4300k? where's the best place to buy one in melbourne?ne good brands i should look out for?

[peeweechik]

i have 8000k on my car i dont see any prob with cop hassling. just noticable due to the blueish.

i dont think it would blind people

just make sure you adjust the height of the light direction soo yea

i reckon cops are abit lenient on HIDs

Damn, beat me too it!

I would go for Kaixen HID's but the 5000K ones... they are white. The 6000K's are good too. But if I could choose again, i'd use the 5000K - for more visablility.

thankz heaps for your help guys, now im confused as f*** lol

[VTECMACHINE]

What is so confusing? Ask your questions fella!

[[Type_R]]

if your confused about the colors.. use google, theres some charts showing the light differences..

personal preference really.. (8000k ftw) haha

[[Type_R]]

anyways, this is my DC5 with 8000k hid:

although when you see it in person you dont see that blue lining around it....
