Post by **marshun** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

Get some tape, a flat wall and give this a try.

if they're S13 projectors then good luck, the lighting on those suck.

Post by **SilviaS14KA24DE** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

yeah, if it's an s14<, it should have a little water bubble alignment thing in the front that shows wether it's aligned properly. There is a screw directly to the side of this, and it adjusts it up or down.

If you're talking about lighting quality (i.e. stock yellow light), I suggest getting PIAA bulbs. 50 bux each, but you pay for quality. I have many friends who's autozone lights burst after a period of time because they're cheapy. But if yuo're on a budget, and don't mind replacing them if they burst, then go to the nearest autozone!

s13 silvia lights are unadjustable.

yes they are.

if you pop up your lights, you will see two screws. one on the top, and one on the side. Those are the adjusters for you headlights. Pop-ups, that is.

Yeah thats the pop-ups. Thats why he said s13 SILVIA lights are unadjustable...

How? i still haven't figured out how to adjust mine. the lighthing on my lights are horrible. By the way i have s13 triple projection.

Well thats just great, i buy this front because of the possibility of better lighting and NOW LOOK. Thanks to everyone who told me that the lighting wouldn't suck with projectors. YOU SUCK.I will now shoot myself.

R32 lighting owns S13 lighting

Post by **marshun** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

sylvania silverstars. get'em. that or HID's.

also those old lights might be dirty on the inside. might be something you'd like to keep in mind.

and just for reference. all headlights HAVE to be adjustable. why? cause it would just take too much time from the factory to have each and every light tested several times before they get the projection right.

Post by **Dattebayo** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

How much brighter would the halogen s13's be? or not?

Post by **Frankie1Eighty** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

::bring back old thread::

anyone know exactly how to adjust the s13 TRIPLE projection headlights. mine really suck. They're pointed at the ground.

Post by **silkk** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

i thought there were screws where you turn to adjust the lights

Post by **SilviaS14KA24DE** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

just look for any screws under the hood, attatched to the headlight unit. All headlights are adjustable. Even S13's (whoever said they're not adjustable). LOL there is no way that there is an unadjustable light

Post by **nof03** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

look for a 8mm bolt sticking out the back of the lights. 1 is at the top other is at the bottom and there will be 2 to a bulb. 1 is for up and down and the other is for left to right.

Post by **SilviaS14KA24DE** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

its' not in the back of the lights. It's near the actual halogen bulbs when you pop up the lights.

Post by **nof03** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

s13 silvia - adjustment screws in the back.s13 180 240 pop ups - in the front next to the retaining ringmost people are asking how to adjust the silvia lights when they do a conversion. thats why i said they are in the back.

Post by **SilviaS14KA24DE** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

ohh, LOL the guy never said coversion. With all the talk of s13 and silvia these day, they could be talking about american or japanese versions lol.

Post by **vsiev** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm

The lights are adjustable each having it's own screw(8mm). One for the highbeam(middle), fog lights(inner) and normal lights(outer) if you want me to post a pic of the screws i can.....

Post by **vsiev** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:31 pm
