well installed my HIDs tonight

hmmmm passenger side is not working so well shuts off randomly checked everything seems fine but once i switch to highs then back it goes out

also wasnt very bright seemed dim any ideas

 

What temp do you have?
Did you get the harness?
Check your grounds

 

I belive 8k
yes I did get harness
my friend who helped me said yeah to check the positive ground guess ill do that on my lunch

 

8,000k is more color then brightness. youd want 5k or 6k for bright but there less blue. higher the K you go the less you see. PM your address ED and ill get a spare ballast out to you.

 

I was going to say are you around today? I am over in portsmouth at work till 3 if you would like to check it out for me I do have a tendency of messing things up lol

 

If I know Mike at all, he'd rather you go to his house lol

yay! i won 2nd place for domestic tuner last year. Hope they dont have random cars packed in the show this year..

 

wern't we just talking about that show on saturday?

Like the new Sig

 

Yeah, you got second with stock parts and a closed hood, to a run of the mill SRT-4.... And me? Nuthin'.

Shoulda kept my mouth shut and kept your plaque, LOL.

 

I need to try and go this year, if the WPI car show is after that I can at least try to recruit cars. It would be hilarious if I won type R, because of the terrible looking functional plywood splitter. OOO I might have my r comps by then when means, 275's in the front 205's in the back roll in the lot with slicks on.

 

Saw a Black SS Lowrise coming out of the North bound Dover Toll this morning

 

Saw a dark blue wingless SS on Rt 1 in Portsmounth
had chrome gen 3s with HIDs and Maine plates

 

Dark blue... be more specific..

Imperial Blue
Arrival Blue
Lazer blue

If arrival blue.. most likely rich.

 

Forgot to mention i left a note on the blue LSJ we see around that has TC decals on the sides. Never got a text from him so he prob thought i was a stalker ex gf haha

 

Imperial Blue i think

 

If it was an LNF was not rich. So that means we got a newbie around!

 

had Maine plates
probably the same guy i saw a few weeks before
both time i wasn't in my SS
