If I understand your question correctly I believe you are asking if its possible to install HID's on your s13? You can but you need the H4 non sealed housing I believe. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but you can as long as you arent trying to do it with sealed beams you need these http://www.frsport.com/FR-Hell....html

A couple of guys are running these:

The 55watt are low beam only in H4. If you need high and low beams you will need to go with the 35watt H4 bulbs.

You can't do it with sealed beams, because, well, they're sealed.

Get the H4 conversion housings, and an H4 HID kit.

I have the housings myself and the HIDs are in the mail.

Okay, if you really want to spend an extra $100 THEN have to buy the HID kit itself.

Hella's are the best quality IMO. To each his own but personally I wouldn't settle for the cheap plastic housings unless I was broke. And $100 bucks isn't that much is it? Can't expect good quality all the time if your gonna be cheap about it.
