12000 will be the worst choice you will ever make. 12000 will be all purple and like, 0 road light. get 6k or something, but 12k will be stupid.

um, how about no. i've seen 10K and 12K in person, and both still rape halogens in light output. i just wasn't a fan of the color.

Ya neel had something like 10K and they were still pretty damn bright (next to my silverstars).

BMWs use 4300k, along with every other car w/stock HIDs (some use 4100k as well).

i have 12000k, and i love them. they are BLUE, no purple at all. yes the light output is not as good as a 6000k kit, but being i live in a city and not some dark country roads with deer crossing left and right, its good for me. anyone who says 12000k is stupid tho is a fucking moron and should be kicked in the nuts. its basically what you're going for. but to answer your original question, ive never heard of that brand, sorry lol

<span style='color:blue'>So urkel, about those 12k's you got, would 10k or 8k be more blue than that or less, I want color. I too live in NYC, and streetlamps are definitely enough, except in a few parts of the city.</span>

that should answer your question....

urkel... do you ever get hassled by the cops for them being too blue?

NYmagicstk
04-03-2005, 03:29 AM
<span style='color:blue'> It sort of answered my question, but not really. I heard that 12k was purpleish, 8k was white/blue, and 10k was blue. That's why I asked which was the most blue. Not necessarily the brightest blue, or the darkest blue... Which one has the richest blue color?</span>

10k or 8k would be LESS blue with more light output, meaning more light on the road but less intense the color. my 12k's are an intense blue, which is exactly what i wanted. the higher the color temp, the better the color, but less light.
at the same time tho even a 12000k kit which has the least light output of hids still produces at least 2x, if not more, light then regular halogen bulbs. being we live in nyc i didnt really see the need for me getting an 8k kit so i could have more light. but if i lived in like oklahoma or something or even new jersey i wouldve prolly went with a 8 or 10k kit. hope this helps

oh and to the person who asked if i got hassled by cops for the blue......not yet!!!!! and ive had them for about 6 months, so far so good.

yess, 12K will have less light output than a 6K. the higher you go in temperature, the less lightout you have. but you took the meaning to the extreme. analogy: the more 5lb dumbells i throw into my Evo MR, the slower it gets....and it's still going to be fast. a 12K HID will still rape a halogen anywhere and put out a ton of light.

im just curious as to how im making a fool of myself. explain it to me. for the 4 millionth time my 12000k HID kit is BLUEEEEEEEEEE. look at my pictures. BLUEEEEEE.BLUEEEEEE.BLUEEEEEE. if you don't believe me i will stick your moronic face into my headlight and turn on my lights, and you will be blinded by an intense BLUEEEEEEE color. its as simple as that, get that through your thick skull. i dont understand what the problem is. you have yet to say anything worthwhile in this thread. and if you think im a "noob", maybe i am in these galant forums, but i was involved alot in the maxima.org forums before i got my g, so watch what you say dick.

one last time, BLUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. wooh!

just so you know, a maxima beats a galant in any way, shape, or form. i dont see many galants with 140k miles being sold for $5000 like my max was. anyway, this thread is a waste of time and you're a waste of sperm. if a mod wants to lock this i recommend you do, i cant deal with children who have nothing of value to say. gsrus you can continue to post in this thread but i will not, regardless of what immature or lame comment you may have to make (troll!). if anyone else wants to know about my hids and its color you can pm me and i will gladly answer. otherwise, ill try and continue to contribute on this board in a positive way however i can. i apologize for even wasting everyone's time reading these retarded posts, thats not what im here to do. ok well later everyone.

I have the 8000k kit and they are blue, my low beams were the HID and the highs were the reg lights but i have to use my high beams because people kept flashing me when i had the hid's on for my low beams (they were bright) good for a show though.

listen troll,

The irony...


Anyways, personally Im happy I got projectors. Granted they won't be blue like the 12k kits, they do make awsome colorful cut off. Since I installed them upside down, they literally make a rainbow on the road.
