I already told you I'm using TSX projectors. It's been proven that they work great with our headlights and it's been done countless of times. The size of the Z/G35 ones puts me off. The TSX ones are nearly the same size as the stock ones it seems. S2K is another option, but pricier.

I like the TSX idea, but it's Honda and besides that, it's is ridiculously expensive.

$180 just for the projector housing,

I could do my whole kit using Matshuta OEM ballast and various, FX, Murano, G35, 350z. There are other Nissan and Infinitis that use the same size projectors.

$180 for the housing alone? Dude, that's stupid high pricing. Don't know where you got that from.

I got everything I need for less than $250 shipped to me. You just have to look for deals.

I'll be starting this project right about the same time I start my LED taillight project. Probably will have everything ready to install by spring or summer depending how much time I have to do it.

$250 aint that bad. The prices I got are just off of Ebay doing a random search. I might not even use projectors. I will just use the rear D2S housing which mounts the bulb to it. Instead of taking apart my whole headlight with the possibility of breaking the glass, i'll just add the D2S housing to the back of the Silvia headlight projectors.

Even though it will not be a complete retrofit, It will still work and I don't mind blinding people at all.

My set up would be:

1. Matsushita OEM Nissan 350Z ballast + ignitors = $105
2. Oem used philips D2S bulbs: $50
3. Cheap ebay projectors with D2S housing. (I am not going to use projector, but just the bulb seat. $30

Under $200 for a cheap set up that will not mess up my silvia headlights.
I don't have the patience to use a heat gun or bake the headlights. I broken so many headlights before from pure frustration so, I find this way suits me best and I can reverse the effect if I decided to change it up. I really don't care about the projectors much, all I want is good Ballast and bulbs for now. Eventually I go Bricks, so back to H4 is a possibility. D2S ino H4 is easy, because they are someone the same size.

Question *noOb*

hi. I was wondering what the meets are all about? I'm trying to get into them but you see I have BAD social skills and the last time I went to one I just stood by my self next to my car like an idiot for 10 mins then went back home. Then I tried another time actually talked to a few people a bit then they left me out of the conversation and I ended up doing the same next to my car like last time. And as far as I've seen meets only work for people who have friends there N'stuff. Now I'm trying to get back into it. So i guess what I'm trying to get at is; who can I tag along with there? I've been doing canyon runs by my self for years and that's been a lot of fun but I'd like to see how it feels to be part of a group, sad maybe, pathetic definitely BUT maybe something good can come of it.

Please any replies must be through PM. I'd hate to see my self being mocked for this I'd rather have it PM'ed. Thankx
