Nope, mine was the 1st generation crower stage II, no headwork required.
Haha, I thought my car was okay fast too before I drove my friend's N/A RSX with 228 whp :blink: now i feel that my car is not doing anything even with I floor it compare to the RSX... ;)

No sorry man.
Drive a 4.0L S197 like what DP has, or the 4.6L like mine...you'll forget all about the RSX...
Ya know, I am not a big fan of yellow cars. But I will give you two big thumbs up as that makes me want to buy a yellow Focus. Nice work.
The shot of your headlight beam, is that with or without fog lights? I have the Mach's as well but I don't get nearly the same coverage you have :( what is the K on your bulbs??
Love the car by the way!

That was without fog lights..
The bulbs were the original philips bulbs with 4300K that came with the HID.
It is all about headlight adjustment, it took me quite a while to have them adjusted to this stage. But I still see some peeps on focaljet that had better light output/coverage compare to mine... so I will adjust them again someday when I get a chance. Also, have you removed the second sheild that actually reduces the light output (but after you removed it your lights will create a little bit glare)? You do that and you will get better output.
The car was nice before but looks f'ing sweet now with the HID lights and the OZ wheels.....SWEET RIDE!!!
That's a really sweet ride man. You've done some great work to it!
Congrats!
Wow those are sharp wheels, what type of suspension do you have?

i'm going to post a for sale thread after i've cleaned them. I'll be looking for $650-$750 for them..
Where are my manners...
The car looks good, and I wish more people went with the whole OEM Euro or Australian look for these cars, rather than adding stupid stuff...
Keep up the good work...

Wow that's awesome!
I've never heard of a second shield or how to remove it. I was wondering if there was something going on with these lights cause they really aren't all that bright. I was considering getting some new bulbs or swapping out the ballast with another set I have laying around. I'll have to track down some how to's for this.
Thanks!

Isn't the shield supposed to be there, and it moves when you turn the highbeams on? I thought it went something like that.. I've never had the guts to mess around with my HIDs since I can't afford to break them..:P

As far as I know, that second shield was to eliminate the glare produced from the chrome housing.
