Patience my friend, simple word, yet so hard to obtain. =X

 

hey people i got the pictures of the after product of my weekend project. the lighting is overall the same as before but i am not blindling anyone. the day time look is nice and the night look is better looking than before. sorri no beam patterns, digi-cam isnt that good at night.

getting to the write up later...if anyone attempt this project in nyc i can assist.
later

 

Are you in Brooklyn?
Perhaps we can meet up in a few weeks after I'm done with school. I'm very interested in seeing them in action..

 

yea i am in brooklyn, are you around 86st ?

 

I get pics of RC cars when trying to view the pics?!

 

I got the pics, SWEEEEEEEEEEt, I so want to do this. i cant wait for the write-up. So the beam patterns are the same? More or less light output? Does the color change at all? Is the only good outcome of this the fact that you dont blind uncomming traffic? Let us know!

 

try to refresh the pic's, shouldnt be like that. i tryed it and i see the car. if you want pictures send me a pm and i'll upload it to yea

 

first of all yea i am not blinding anyone anymore
second from outside the car, there is one focus beam of light which make it look close to a bmw with projectors. shoots farther.

 

Same color output? How is the difficulty of it? When can we expect a write-up. Congrats on the new headlights!

 

hadnt really look hard at the color. the project was easy enough to take me 2 hours to paint housing, eyelide and projectors. since i didnt take any pictures of the actural project i might have to draw a diagram (can't draw) or if any one is attempting putting in projectors i will assist then i can do a better write-up.....

 

Yeah he's my friend and i'm next in line for the project....

looks great, keep up the good work.

 

It doesn't blind people anymore and the beam is more focus there for it's ferther out and it looks nice as the beam bounces and looks like BMW headlights. that's about it....

Wow since I live in Brooklyn and a drive to 86st is like 7 minutes, I would like to take a look.

 

Where can we get the projecor parts (considering that a junkyard wont have them)? What other supplies do we need? Thanks!

 

FINALLY!!!!!!! SOMEONE MADE projectors. Looks owesome. I love the pics. Hopefully it will be mass produced.

 

Mass production will depend on how many people want them and also we have to run some more tests and fine tuning as for the parts well.... Ebay, junkyarks ETC....

I think i'm going to make the angeleyes for mine and relay it to a interior switch so i can drive with angeleyes on and projectors off and also we are thinking about putting another projector in there for high beam, a smaller one and do some other stuff with the headlight...

That would be nasty as ****...

 

how much this whole project cost you? where did you buy the parts needed? looks sweet. I wouldn't buy a set made due to the fact that i like doing my mods myself.

nice job with the headlights, hows the beam pattern??

 

This thread should be stickied. A pretty important upgrade, definately the interest of every 4th gen owner.

Definetly!!! A good idea always has been and will be treated very well, esspecially if it concerns the 4th gen enthuasists

 

What I think would especially be cool with those lights are if you were to do an "angel eye" effect around the projector housing... That would look pretty cool IMO..

Otherwise, nice work...

 

Would have to see it to judge if I would liek it or not, they are pretty easy to do though (angeleyes that is).

 

Why pay a High Price when you can go get some R32 Headlights that have a Nice Snug Fit???

 

I dont think R32 are a direct bolt one.

 

I didn't think so either, I think they are slightly different, some modification needed.

 

ok people....

The R32 are not a direct fit, you have to do some mods for it and i would go that way but it's too expensive for my taste plus i kinda like the fact that i have a maxima, If i had a skyline i would never put maxima products in it just my opinion. Also it's not hard to do the mods may take you 2-3 hours or so.

The beam pattern isn't like a BMW but it's better than stock and it focuses a stonger beam over a wider area with-out blinding people and it looks very cool cause from far away all you see is two beams at you and you think it's some expensive car and when people see a maxima there like, i didn't know maxima comes with projectors, i would say somehting like they don't or if i wanna mess with them i say yeah they all do it's an extra 100 bucks lol...

You will NOT see from inside the car a super beam on the road and your headlights will NOT get brighter and your car won't fly or anything like that.

If you want something different, if you want to stop blinding people and have better focus in a dark area and if you just want to mess around a bit, it's a good idea....

Some notes for those who want/attempt this, YOU CAN NOT GO BACK TO STOCK after the conversion.

sorry this is so long and mine are gonna have white angeleyes for those who care...

P.S. All props and recognition goes to TAGGATE, who has to be givin the credit due to the fact that he had the ***** to do this on his car and also it's just good policy to give the maker his credit!!!

 

Kyle, how much would it cost with the angel eyes, for him to do it?

 

Once this whole project is done...with the angeleyes, the projectors...etc...it would be great to have a complete writeup. The Maxima's headlights suck and putting money and time into the project would not be a problem for me. This is an upgrade that would...

a.) Look cool
b.) Make you be able to see better = safer
c.) Blind other drivers less = safer
d.) Look really cool.

Seriously, this would be major if someone could describe the project in detail.

 

Night shots are key right about now. I don't care what quality, any general idea is good enough for me.

 

We will do a complete write up soon because we don't think charging people would be right, So you order the parts and DIY, For a couple people who are mechanically inclined, we will consider it and i will get some prices and wait untill mine is done first with the angel eyes and see if you like it, Anyway people a write up with be comming soon...

Projectors dont look symmetrically placed inside housings, pass. side looks off-center also why are they cloudy? I wonder if Lexus projectors work better, they are clear.
Props on the work.

 

I have a pair of Porsche projectors here, if I do this project I'm going to their projectors. I have their HIDs as well but they are too bright, its crazy.

 

If anyone is intrested in trying this project Hella 90 mm projectors cost around $60 each. They are not HIDs but their light output is close to some HIDs.
