    55w HID's & voltage draw?

    I chose the 55W because they are brighter & would like to stay with them. As far as my wiring I did that upgrade 2-3 yrs ago per dan Sterns wright up with Bosch relay & 30 amp fuse. From that I just hooked the ballast to the stock connector. The kit is a DDM Lighting HID kit. Would have gone...

    my projector retrofit

    Turned out nice, esp for $100 investment! Cant get a cut off like that With Hella E-Codes. Only other thing you should have done would have been to install shrouds to clean things up. Good job plane & simple. I have my TSX Retrofit almost done. Housings are all together now so I just have...

    The supra's totaled! :(

    I agree 100%!! Same thing happened to me with my Supra. After getting receipts & printing ads from autotrader etc I got 3 times what the initial offer was. Then bought the car back & fixed her up to what she is today.

    35W HID Vs. 55W HID

    /\ Currently working on the same setup. I bought 2 Sets of TSX Projectors to make a Quad setup but no way to get 2 of them to fit into a H4 housing. Do you have pic of the cut off?

    How long have you owned yours?

    Got my 1st SUPRA (82 P Type) early summer 1987. My current Supra (89 in SiG) I got in Summer of 1994 with 30K~ miles. I sold the 82 spring of 95 thinking I didn't need 2 Supra's & I regretted it ever since. With that lesson learned I don't plan on selling my 89 which runs great. Went through...

    Unusually High Timing reading

    Yea the Check Engine was blinking Rapidly.. No Codes. I'm sure it is reading off. My Supra was idling at 650~ purring great with that Toyota F/I Tic. Timing light was checked on another car (non-Supra) & read fine. Must have it hooked up wrong but I just don't see how.

    Unusually High Timing reading

    yea..If the timing light is correct but I don't think it is. Timing light Reads my RPM's as 1400 at idle when the actual stock tach reads 650. Thats more then twice as high.

I Warmed the car up & had her Idling at 650 RPM. I Jumpered the E1 and TE1 terminals Hooked up the timing...
