awww s***! that's what happened to brizanden and he couldn't get it to work so he ended up parting the car..look into metal zip ties or some kind of metal support. I welded a strip of metal to hold my harness up

[Kckouki]

you guys got any pics of exactly how you tucked your wiring harness? i only have zipties holding mine up too so i guess i should re-do it before something bad happens

[brizanden]

u gotta cut a little hole in your pinch weld on the body to let the harness go up above the pinch weld. do this now if your car is low. it completely f*** my car i replaced that harness and something else must have burnt up in another harness because of the short cause s*** still didnt work. me and a nissan tech looked at it for 2 weeks and couldnt fix it short of replacing all the harnesses which i wasnt gonna do. hope your guys cars dont end up like mine.

[Kckouki]

Yeah im hopefully getting mine fixed tomorrow, it rubbed through about 20 wires, ill tell you how it goes

[motoman399]

I have a spare harness. I could cut you a section of harness for a few dollars

[FusionR300zx]

hahaha. done that before ^^

but yoo, i might need some of the harness, gona cut and extend my harness thru the engine bay. s*** still rubs like a b**** up front by the firewall..



18x10-26

might be -38 soon if i pick up these different spacers.
fronts are 18x10+4. might be -1 soon.
225/40 all around.
only posting in the kouki thread because it's only a rear shot =]

[Gjohnson]

Man, those wheels look sick. What are they???


Oh, can someone give me some tips on aiming these freaking Kouki headlights. My cutoff is all jacked up and I've been messing with these adjustment screws for days. I lined up the litte red lines and the stupid leveler bubbles but you can still tell some things way off and it seems to be the passengerside.

Can't beleive this crap, I can build all my own parts for a LSX swap and install, but can't freaking amid my headlights.

If you drive a kouki your first order of buisness should be HID's!!!

[S14Kouki10]

i have missed this thread.

[motoman399]

speaking of HID's i just bought a set off ebay for 30.50 shipped. they were 34.95 buy it now with the option to offer less. so i offered that and they accepted it. they are direct fit 6000k h1's. pretty excited lol dont even have a car to put them on yet. but dang they are cheap now. i remember when i first bought my car you couldnt find them for under 100

What the heck? Back then my brother bought a pair for like $500.00 :

Anyways, I just bought my '98 two days ago. And I'm adoring it. I've wanted this car for 4 years. And I've finally gotten it. Though it's an automatic, I paid super cheap for it (in my opinion.) I'll swap it to a manual once the engine dies out.

[S14Kouki10]

how much? if you dont mind.

[LeZoSo]

$3,100.00

I could not sleep the night I bought it...It has minor problems, some small scratches, and a bit of peeling. But nothing a little repainting can't fix.

Oh, and it's got some weird exhaust on it...Not sure what it is, but I'll find a more casual one soon. (Maybe a stock one.)

i had those and they lasted a month and a half..plus they would shut off on me sometimes whenever i flashed or turned on my hi beams..i hated it so I just got some silverstars

[fiznowler]

I bought my HIDS off the sponser on here that started a thread. They work well but they do the same ocasional shut off when switching on and off highbeams crap. I was messing with the ballast to see if i could figure it out and shocked the piss outta myself. My roommate was laughing pretty damn hard. I should have known better but I was pretty intoxicated.

[spooled240]

the problem is the voltage drop the ballasts experience when the hi-beams are turned on. I wired in a 600 uf capacitor to keep the voltage stable and it helped a lot but it still wasn't perfect...once in a while one of them would turn off it was annoying.

One time they didn't even turn on at all and driving home with only fog lights suck lemme tell you.

I would recommend against getting cheap HID's for your cars (sorry motoman lol) your lights are just something you don't wanna f*** around with

[motoman399]

i agree that you dont wanna f*** with headlights, but i put these same cheapo ebay hid's in my girlfriends zenki and they work flawlessly! they were a single filament fixture (meaning that they were for low beam only) and i wired in a relay to come on when the highs were on so that when switching back and fourth there is only a split second to none they have lost power. this is the third set i have bought. and i have friends that own them also with no porblems. so you should just send me your old ones

fiznowler (what a weird name lol)
the ballast converts 12V DC power to 85V 35Wac you might as well hold on to a butter knife while sticking it in a light socket in your house lol
