Dude. You have no idea how much it aggravates me when someone puts HID bulbs in non-projector housings.

Thanks!

 

I miss my work truck



had to aim them WAY down before I switched bulbs.. I lit up the entire section of freeway I was traveling down

30k is intense. The myth that they arent as bright at that high of a temperature is bull****. Just gotta put it in a projector housing.

sorry for the thread jack! last one

 

Are those High-Low housings? Or are they just On-Off? Is there a shutter in the projector?

I'm running 6000k in both my headlights and fogs. Fogs are a little blue on 35w ballasts, but my headlights are pretty much pure white on 55w ballasts. And then I have my 100w Hellas to throw into the mix.

 

Night wheeling much?

They are high and low housings, however I left the factory GMC high beams in. It didnt make sense to me to get ballasts and bulbs, just to wait for the HIDs to warm up when I need to do the "quick flash." People in Las Vegas just plain suck at driving, so the quick response time is more than necessary.

When you say shutters, you mean does one shut off and the other come on?

 

Haha. I have yet to turn them all on at once... (gotta put the Hellas back on)

No. If you look into the lens of my projector, you'll see a little spring thing towards the top (projector is upside down). That's the shutter mechanism that makes the headlights have a clean cut-off when on low and then it moves the shutter to give an unrestricted high beam. The bulb never turns off (stays on for high and low). Which means I can flash people!!

 

Love it subbing up!!!

 

THATS BADASSSS! man I wish I had that on my old ones. It had a seperate housing that wasnt a projector. lame old yellow stockers for my high beams. oh well, it was 4 cars ago. Ive moved on lol.

again, big thanks for running projectorz. maybe it'll catch on...

 

At least they're much better than the stock halogen junk that my Jeep had before. I like seeing where I'm driving. Lol.


UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Took my valve cover off to check the rockers and make sure that non were loose or flopping around. Made sure they were torqued to spec. And then put the valve cover back on.

Snapped a valve cover bolt in the process of putting the cover back on.. Good thing I had a bolt that was the right size and thread pitch to use until I get a new one from either the junkyard or the stealership.




Oh yeah. I ported my supercharger a little bit.


Need a new silicone elbow to put the intake back on.

But the good news is that IT RAN!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing blew up, so I guess that's a good sign.

 

those lights are sick, where did you aquire these from?

 

I made them.

Projectors were acquired from China.

 

By far coolest build on here. Showed my dad that supercharged vid and he asked why I don't have one

 

Thanks!!

And... GET ON THAT!!!!!

It's really coming together nicely. Lol. Already planning the next round of mods that'll probably come in the next couple of years.

 

Any update on the tuning? I'm curious whether continued driving and varied conditions have brought about a CEL or any other tuning issues. Keep us posted.

Thanks!

 

I haven't changed the tuning yet. My dad is off this whole week, so we're going to finish all the little things on the Jeep and look at the tuning software and maybe play with the timing.

No CELs. Engine is running great. Lol. City driving, mild acceleration, WOT, etc. No problems at all.

Hopefully going to have the shift kit installed sometime early this week.

 

Where did you get that fan shroud? Looks way bigger than oem.
