    I'm so excited.....

    Well my rampage of parts for my baby begins with:

    8000k HID kit (Thanks Laz Z Kay)
    Red/White Tailights (Thanks Phoz)
    Gauge Cluster with tach that nearly matches my current mileage so i don't have to deal with switching odometers and crap.
    ELP CAI (Thanks 05WRX)

    On my next check I'll get:

    OEM Brembo slotted rotors
    TRD Exhaust
    TOMS lip kit

    and then on my other big check at the beginning of Sept I'll get:

    Alarm
    Tint
    Fog lights


    I'm soo excited man, can't wait for these parts to get in so I can eventually take some pics of my car with some add ons and stuff, I'll post pics when all the parts are installed :D

    Thanks guys and well just logged into 9thgencorolla.com and it seems like I'll maybe downgrade my HID kit if possible to a 6000k because some guy came in with some convincing charts and told me that 8000k is more or a purple instead of a blue and that the higher the number the less lighting it gets and well I guess 8000 is way over the top actually so I'll see if he let's me downgrade cause I don't want purple lights NO WAY lol........ and well after my last check that goes to the Alarm, tint and fogs then the rest of the checks go to my bank account to get a turbo kit for the car.

    Just to let you know OEM HID's are around 4300K's and that is the most usable light output. Anything after that it decreases your useable light. When you see OEM cars with HID's and you see that purplish/bluish light it has to do with the projectors and how they refract the light output at different angles, not the color of the light.

    You probably know this, and maybe even have projectors already, but HID's without projectors can be a nuisance.

    In these two pics is the EXACT blue I want to get out of the color but then they said that the lens of the camera can alter the light ouput color when taking pics so for all I know it can be white but it shows blue on the pic u kno lol man I'm confused :confused:

    Good point E BUT here is my problem.... I live in Colorado so IF I get a bike it'll be parked in my garage for like 1/2 year so why pay for something that I'll have parked for 6 months? hell if I lived in FL or something hell I would say screw my car and get a bike hell even screw the damn bike and the car and get a Supra shit lol...... I dk it's a tough choice

    Also here's pics of the gauge cluster I got which is only like 800 miles from matching my current mileage :D
