300zx w/ HIDs:



It's amazing what Google can supply you with...

i tried man but in your opinion on a scale from 1 to 10 place the tsx retro fit and the Nissan 300zx

[JoshM]

TSX > 300zx

[H22A91CB7]

ok i see the tsx are dominant, what about the Bmw745 projectors??? the reason im asking is because i want to retrofit but want the highest output possible

[Brandoncb7]

I have some of the 300zx projectors but didn't get the cutoff piece. I never installed them though lol. I think the TSX or BMW ones turn out nice though.

There is a guy around me that has a 300Z with a hid kid and it is not all that great. Just about anything I have seen is better than those. I wouldn't recommend wasting time with them especially when there are so many other choices out there.

I THINK....the best out there are the M35's

m35 is not the best sorry, its actually pretty weak sauce when it comes to cut off, its just got colour because infinity uses koito 4900k bulbs, unlike most manufactures who tend to go with philips 4300k or osram 4300k, so the infinity will look more white/bluish,

some of the best are s2k, tl, rx330, tsx, e46

For those who might be curious, TL lights:



If you're going to retrofit/transplant projectors, then get ones that are designed with HID in mind. Halogen projectors will not provide the clear cut-off that many are looking for, nor will it provide sufficient width and light dispersion on the ground. This is because they were designed for the lumen output of halogen bulbs.

tl > s2k > tsx

[accordztech]

actually there is a company developing new projectors from old ones, they modify the FX projectors with a TSX-r (replica) lens and optimize it, to get results as the TLs but wayy better output and plus the fx are slightly smaller so people can fit them in their housings. They are also developing a S2K-Rprojectors but i havent seen the output, i heard they are amazing.

Honestly, if your ona budget, e46 projectors single xenon will work in our cars, but TLs are going to be damn hard to fit due to the solinoid.

Tsx does look really sharp though, and they fit!

I did an FX projector retro in my van (boosted to 55 watts), I love them and couldnt ask for anything more.

IMO the 300zx looks crappy and i think they change the lens to get a better pattern but why not just get some TSX.

tl > s2k > tsx

your saying that cause what tl is bi-xenon? well if you didn't know there are single xenon projectors can can provide better output then bixenon, and tl's aren't necessary better then s2k, since they do offer a fesnel lense which makes them more of a glare kit then a sharp projector.

S2k are wider then tl just fyi.

but have a look yourself here is a modded tl projector with zkw lense vs a oem s2k

s2k on top, tl with zkw lense on bottom
you'll notice the s2k is wider then tl which is bi-xenon, othen then that the tl looks more colourful since it is using a zkw lense

turly bi-xenon is a waste of time since you can find single xenon projectors that can do a job just as good if not even better...
