I thought I posted everything on my last comment about the lens glare and what not, I guess people do not read my shit all the way through and just look at the pictures and ask questions that's already been answered.

yes it looks like a giant W when I'm driving at night.
Yes most horrible glare/cut off headlight I've seen in my life.
Yes it's brighter at night and I haven't gotten flashed just yet in those years with my setup.

Hell, it's worse to have HID's with oem lens covers because it appears 'brighter' to on coming traffic and I got flashed at at night with that setup plenty of times. It lights up the whole headlight and keeping the light in to appear brighter and not on the road. atleast the clear lens lets the light actually beam out. the light output won't be any better either way unless you do projector retrofit with clear lens.

A giant W, you say?

with clear lenses u are simply scattering light everywhere, hence the glare. the "right" way is to get some tsx projectors or something and retrofit them into the headlights as that will give you a defined cutoff!

^ kinda why i've kept my oem covers... when they are clear they look fine to me. it's when they yellow they look sucky.

Thanks Nate, something that I would have never thought about.

Thanks for the answer man. Straight to the pointn appreciate it. How do I aim my HID's though? It seems like when I put them in there wasn't really anything ti use to aim them with? Is that what the little green-ish bubble thing on the actual headlight housing is for? Sorry for the stupid ass questions...

[nathanong87]

i'm pretty sure there are adjustment screws similar to normal non-hid headlights. i dunno if u'll have a little green leveler thing, but u can line em up against a wall or something. usually there is a certain height u want them at @ ____ feet away from the wall.

and the hissing when you uncap your gas tank for gas. I might have to replace mine because every time i go to get gas, i don't hear the hissing noise (i fill up $20 and get half tank though...)

Do you still have all your emissions and shit? Could have something not allowing the tank to build pressure as well

[1on1]

yea, all my emissions are there (stock ka) im doing a tune-up on my motor for the next following weeks. the last time i checked, my ecu threw a bad front o2 sensor and the solenoid thing.

only sometimes, my tank would do the hissing noise. imma check the codes again later on this week though.

18s all around put your fender at the wheel all around...be the zenki version of this:

Is the hissing noise bad? When I fill gas it hisses and I always thought it was normal...

[TeamFRAT]

hahaha no its normal. Your fuel tank needs to be pressurized and all those little emissions things on your car make that happen. Its normal condition.

Oh shit. Whew... Okay good, was getting worried about replacing a cracked gas tank or something for a minute there...

[mad-ass]

you can aim the headlight level with the clear lens and HID's, no it won't be so accurate any more.
I have mine aimed down all the way and even then it lights up the road pretty well, and HID's being HID's, they light up the road reflectors and road signs really well reguardless where it's aimed at.
Just look at the pictures I posted in previous page and it should give you a rough idea how it would look at night driving.

i was thinking some more along the lines of this guy. except i'll be a way worse driver. best hatch from america perhaps.




but i think i still am trying to get on this guy's level. bubble jacket is on backorder.

i believe so, it's like code 35, 33, or 3?

i hope i can find a used one because i remember some dude bought a new one and it was a poopton of cash.

i dont know if no hissing is a sign of a bad gas tank, but the morning that i woke up to the puddle of gas, i opened up my gas cap and it was the first time i had not heard a hiss. it was strange

YOU should pm me. I want to get rid of a race car for a street car.

You may have seen it before. If not I can post pictures

[95KA-Turbo]

I think 17/18 looks good on certain applications, but your aero is so aggressive I think 18s all around would give you a way more dramatic look - especially since you could have the fender at the wheel all the way around.....I mean unless you think you can pull that off with 17s up front.

[mad-ass]

I'm thinking 18/19 staggar.

what yall think?

18/19 stagger with rpf1's in silver for my purple one.

[95KA-Turbo]

19s are a bitch to fit out back - but if you can do fender to wheel up front and tuck a little out back it'll be pretty outrageous.

[angels12]

happy i get my car back and my zenky sticker hahahaha

[illvialuver]

if you do it, a few years down the line and people will be doing 19/ 20 stagger.

the thought makes me wanna barf.

I'd raise my car a bit if anything, I'm done trying to be low and 'flush', so i'm looking for a decent fitting wheels, trying to put down atleast 275's in the rear.
