Pics of Hanabi 8000K HID's I got from Freddie.
 
I got some other good shots but Sounddomain is down. So I used my personal web space to Upload these.


This is my 98 Max with Mtec 4320K bulbs.

Here is my 8000K Hanabi HID's I got from Freddie.

Here is a 03 Max with Stock HID's (on right) and mine with the Mtec bulbs (on left).

Here is the same pic except I installed the HID's on mine. Notice the color difference.

This is almost a true color pic of the headlights. My running lights are PIAA Super Plasma's and they look yellow as hell.

JailBa8 Jan 20, 2003 01:02 PM

Darn i want those. They do look really good!

HID's is one of the best mods anyone can make, I have them in my 3rd gen and consider them one of my best investments.

seeing your car makes me want a white maxima... looks real nice, do you still have high/low beams with those hid's?

meccanoble Jan 21, 2003 06:51 AM

damn those are nice. And they say the 8000's arent as bright as the 6000's and 7000's, just more color. Them 8000's are bright as hell. :eek:

HTownMaxSE Jan 21, 2003 08:13 AM

I'll try to take pics of my 6000k Purple. The startup looks clean.

JSClark Jan 21, 2003 09:04 AM

I wanna know if there is a high/low beam, or is it just one beam?

99MAXSE-L Jan 21, 2003 11:43 AM

damn, looks hot bro, good job

just get some side markers and clearence lights to match with it
btw...as soundsoldier said....is it low/high beam, or just one beam?

araffio Jan 21, 2003 12:51 PM

I wouldn't trade my 8000k's for the world!

By far the most useful mod I've added to my Maxima.

They are gorgeous too!!

:p

i still enjoy my 6,000k Purples from Freddie. Ive gotten nothing but props for the color, and not to mention madd looks at night when i roll up into a parking lot:cool: Even after comparing side by side to the 8,000k, id still keep mine.

meccanoble Jan 21, 2003 04:35 PM

the 8000 only has one beam, all hanabi only have 1 beam.

I want to invest in the 8000 kit but i dont need it since i already have 6000...plus its so bright it will make the rest of my lights look sh*tty unless i upgrade them too, the only thing holding me back....

DanSE Jan 21, 2003 05:48 PM

Does the 6000 or 7000 have any color at all or is it just white?

I have the 6500k kit (Freddie only sells the 6500k, 7000k, and 8000k kits now) and despite claims that the bulbs are pure white, I can detect a slight tint of green in mine. Its hardly noticeable standing alone, but when compared to factory HID's they are noticeably whiter..and greener. The 7000k kit has a noticeable tinge of blue to it, and the 8000k is supposed to be purple. Just a word of warning....more color means more chances of being pulled over by the cops.

APER5 Jan 21, 2003 06:35 PM

WHOSE FREDDIE?
 
AND BY THE WAY NICE HID'S I WANT EM....BUT TOO EXPENSIVE....
STEALING IS JUST A RISK NO OPTIONS!
ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS....!?

those pick really look good.

thanks to all the guys for the support.

as you all know hanabi does not make a hi/low hid kit. the truth is most hi/low hids have problems.

the hanabi color range is not the same as other brands. our scale is a little lighter. most ppl here talk about 4200k to 5000k but 90% of the org buys the 8000k kit, it's also the #1 kit in new york. even when looking at the 7k kit ppl still want that rich color of the 8k blue kit.

i hope all you hanabi users enjoy your hid kit, i think it's the best mod on my car. not only can i see at night but it also make my car look like it's worth a little more. :)

wait, so all of the hanabi kits that you sell dont come with hi/low beams? What do you guys do for inspection when they ask you to turn your high beams on? I know the 9004's are one bulb, and I lost my high beams also when I installed my HID's..I have no idea how Im goin to pass in March

maxNYC Jan 22, 2003 11:37 AM

6k-7k will start having a blue tint. 4500k - 5500 are white.

go down to the 9000k and you'll have violet.

It is not too much effort to just switch bulbs for the inspection. I doubt the inspection officer will cite you for having a disconnected HID ballast.
